Sub directory not redirecting

wontbeherelong · July 3, 2019, 3:28pm

Hi,

Anyone able to tell me what I’m doing wrong here? Most of my services are run on sub domains and work perfectly, However, for SSO to work I need Plex to be a sub directory. My dashboard service (Organizr) is at mydomain.com, and for plex I have told it to point to mydomain.com/plex. So, the relevant part of my config currently looks something like this:

frontend shared-frontend-merged
	acl			ACL1	var(txn.txnhost) -m str -i mydomain.co.uk
	acl			ACLPlex	var(txn.txnpath) -m beg -i /plex

use_backend Organizr_ipvANY  if  ACL1 
	use_backend Plex_ipvANY  if  ACLPlex

Yet when I try to access Plex through Organizr I’m faced with a 404 served up by nginx. Have I missed something obvious?

ciprian.craciun · July 3, 2019, 3:33pm

The first backend wins because the ACL1 matches both in both conditions.

Einter switch the use_backend order, or (to be clear) add an if ACL1 !ACPlex for the first one, and ACL1 ACLPlex for the second one.

(Else only by using ACLPlex one could use any domain that points to that IP to access your service.)

Hmm, that makes sense and it has definitely done something. However, both methods are now returning a 401 unauthorized. Does this provide any clue as to where to go from here? Apologies, I’m rather new to HAproxy. I probably should have done this with nginx but I’m so far down the rabbit hole I’d like to get it finished!

ciprian.craciun · July 3, 2019, 3:44pm

Unless you’ve explicitly configured authentication in HAProxy, then the status code 401 most likely is replied by the backend servers (i.e. NGinx or something downstream).

Perhaps paste the entire HAProxy configuration?

Thanks for this, I’m sure you’re going to tell me I’ve done something really strange lol.

Yup… Very strange…

But before that, quickly looking through your configuration I wouldn’t say that the 401 is from HAProxy, but in fact from one of the backend servers… (I would certainly search there…)

Check the log to see if a server was actually selected.

Now for the “very strange part”:

you could give some relevant names to the ACL’s, as it’s almost impossible to trace them…
the aclcrt_shared-frontend isn’t used anywhere; moreover it would be useless, as any behaving HTTP(S) client (given that HAProxy listens on only 443), wouldn’t send such a Host header…
you use var(txt...) when you don’t need to (because you are using request headers only in the request processing, thus they are available;) (you could use them if you needed these values in response processing;)
do not use -m beg with domain names; (as for example whatever.mydomain.co.uk won’t be matched;) (use instead -m dom if I remember correctly;)
I don’t think SSH would work this way (unless you have something that proxies between HTTP and SSH);

Well, looks like I have some homework to do! With ACLnames you’re absolutely right and it soon spiralled, changing them is on the list! The rest appears appears to be a combination of tutorials I followed and the options availale in the PFsense package (eg. “host matches”). As for the SSH, I installed an SSH client in docker that serves a web interface, so I can use that to SSH on my lan (as the container makes the requests). I’ll go and do some research in that case, disappointing that it wasn’t a quick fix! Thanks for your time though, appreciated.

I know this is an older thread but were you ever able to get your setup working? Mind sharing the solution

I’m new to HAProxy and running into issues. Trying to set up a bunch of subdirectories for ‘/sonarr’, ‘/radarr’, ‘/plex’, etc.
