Reverse proxy and custom context path not working as expected

Question

I have Jira Service Desk and Confluence running on the same server. This is my intended setup: * support.mydomain.com -> Service Desk * support.mydomain.com/wiki -> Confluence Currently: * support.mydomain.com works as expected. Visiting this address on port 80 loads Jira Service Desk which is listening on port 8080. * support.mydomain.com/wiki does not work as expected. This takes me to a "Oops, you've found a dead link." page. However, support.mydomain.com:8090/wiki does work Seeing as :8090/wiki works, I would assume the issue lies with either the confluence connector or my vhost configuration? Connector: < Connector port="8090" connectionTimeout="20000" redirectPort="8443" maxThreads="48" minSpareThreads="10" enableLookups="false" acceptCount="10" debug="0" URIEncoding="UTF-8" protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" proxyName="support.mydomain.com" proxyPort="80" scheme="http" /> vhost: ServerName support.mydomain.com ProxyRequests Off ProxyVia Off Require all granted ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/ ProxyPass /wiki http://127.0.0.1:8090/wiki ProxyPassReverse /wiki http://127.0.0.1:8090/wiki I would appreciate any guidance! Thank you, Michael

I was pretty much there, just missed this crucial step in the proxy configuration!

Uncomment the connector listed under the HTTP - Proxying Confluence via Apache or Nginx over HTTP heading.

All sorted now, thanks!

Hi thanks for responding. My base URL is currently set to support.mydomain.com/wiki but visiting that address does not work. I can only access my wiki by visiting support.mydomain.com:8090/wiki and when I land on the wiki it warns me:

Your URL doesn't match

Confluence's base URL is set to http://support.mydomain.com/wiki  but you are accessing Confluence from http://support.mydomain.com:8090/wiki .

So my base URL is already set to what I want it to be, I just can't visit on that URL. I guess I just need to figure out why I can't access confluence on the context path without the port 8090
