Haproxy redirect multiple webserver

Help!
1

Hi all,

I’m looking for a possible configuration for haproxy to redirect http requests to multiple web servers. In particular, if the request is http://193.206.112.10 it is diverted to the 10.200.1.1 and 10.200.1.2 servers, if the http request is http://193.206.112.10/test it is diverted to the server 10.200.1.3

Just define two backends, the first one with the two servers, and a second one for the third server. Then just use ACL’s based on the path sample to use_backend the proper one.

I didn’t understand how to do it, could you tell me how to do it? Sorry but I’m not very good with ACL

If you only have two conditions i.e if the path is /test, use one backend else use the other, it can be achieved as:

acl is_test path -i -m beg /test
use_backend be_test if is_test

This is using the acl is_test if the URL path is beginning with /test. If this condition is true, it will select the be_test backend where you can put the 10.200.1.3 server as backend. Otherwise, the default backend will be selected where the backend servers are 10.200.1.1 and 10.200.1.2

Ok I try this solution. Thx

This is my haproxy.cfg, but

frontend Local_Server
bind *:80
mode http
option httplog
option http-server-close
acl is_admin path_beg -i /administrator
redirect prefix http://172.22.80.16 if is_admin
acl is_ufsoit path -i -m beg /ufsoit
use_backend be_ufsoit if is_ufsoit
default_backend My_Web_Servers

backend My_Web_Servers
mode http
balance roundrobin
option forwardfor
http-request set-header X-Forwarded-Port %[dst_port]
http-request add-header X-Forwarded-Proto https if { ssl_fc }
option httpchk HEAD / HTTP/1.1rnHost:localhost
server web1 172.22.80.17:80
server web2 172.22.80.18:80
server web3 172.22.80.19:80

backend be_ufsoit
mode http
balance roundrobin
option forwardfor
http-request set-header X-Forwarded-Port %[dst_port]
http-request add-header X-Forwarded-Proto https if { ssl_fc }
option httpchk HEAD / HTTP/1.1rnHost:localhost
server web4 172.22.80.20:80

When i call http://my_name_server/ufosit an error occur.
I think because in the server 172.22.80.20 there is no subdirectory called ufsoit

What is the error?

Page not found 404

Any suggest?

So you need to strip off the first part of the path in the be_ufsoit backend?

Try this:

backend be_ufsoit
  …
  reqrep "^([^ :]*) /ufsoit/(.*)" "\1 /\2"
11

I used the following rule and the routing works correctly to the right server.

reqrep ^([^\ ]*\ /)web1[/]?(.*)     \1\2

But the page is loaded without a style sheet and images

Having seen much pain with subfolder setups like this, you are in for a world of hurt if the backend isn’t expecting traffic at that subfolder because it’s probably sending back links to assets at /, not /ufsoit/
