Websocket configuration problem

Help!
1

Hi, I have problem to make WebSockets work.
I have 2 balancers:

  • one used to balance requests to my web domain with HTTPs and having roundrobin to other 2 VMs having Apache with html and JS (to give name “FE_PROXY”)
  • the other balancer is called from what we have deployed inside Apache in previous step.to balance backend API on another VM (this proxy is named as “BE_PROXY”)

So in few words we have a balancer (FE_PROXY) to balance the requests towards - for example - www.myfrontent.com (with https) and on the each web frontend on Apache call the BE_PROXY to serve APIs. All works fine but when we try to open a websocket (responding on url /livechat) we see this entry on log of haproxy of BE_PROXY:

core_fe core_be/core_be_server_2 0/0/0/2/2 400 115 - - ---- 1/1/0/0/0 0/0 “GET /livechat/235 HTTP/1.1”

but no info in log of FE_PROXY…

And we don’t understand how to solve this. The

The config i have is

frontend core_fe
        timeout client 50000ms
        bind *:11975
        mode http
        option forwardfor
        default_backend core_be

and

backend core_be
   timeout connect 5000ms
   timeout check 5000ms
   timeout server 50000ms
   balance roundrobin
   mode http
   option http-server-close
   option httpchk GET /api/uptime
   http-check expect string true
   balance roundrobin
   #cookie SERVERID insert indirect nocache
   server core_be_server_1 XXX.XXX.XXX.24:11975 check inter 5s
   server core_be_server_2 XXX.XXX.XXX.10:11975 check inter 5s

we tried also this but no success

  acl is_websocket hdr(Upgrade) -i WebSocket
  acl is_websocket hdr_beg(Host) -i ws

Could you help us? thanks
