Problem running Stash behind apache2 mod_proxy

Jochen Häberle

Hi,

following https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASH/Integrating+Stash+with+Apache+HTTP+Server#IntegratingStashwithApacheHTTPServer-Step1:ConfiguretheTomcatConnector

I set up apache2 as a reverse proxy for stash, setting up a context path stash.

Unfortuantely it does not work but gives a Internal server error 500. In the error log I find:

[Tue Jul 29 20:22:32 2014] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(1) failed in child 27166 for worker proxy:reverse
[Tue Jul 29 20:22:32 2014] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(0) failed in child 27166 for worker http://localhost:7990/stash<br< a="">>[Tue Jul 29 20:22:39 2014] [crit] [client <my_ip>] configuration error: couldn't perform authentication. AuthType not set!: /stash/

The only thing I can think of is that you need to put some Location or Directory around those Proxy* Commands.

from my apache vhost:

<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
ProxyRequests Off
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
allow from all
# Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
# Allow from localhost
</Proxy>
# ProxyVia On
ProxyPass /stash/ http://localhost:7990/stashconnectiontimeout=5 timeout=300
ProxyPassReverse /stash/ http://localhost:7990/stash<br< a="">> </IfModule>

<Location /stash>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Location>

Without the line "require all granted", I get Forbidden errors like

[client <my_ip>] client denied by server configuration: proxy:http://localhost:7990/stash

from my server.xml:

<Connector port="7990" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
useBodyEncodingForURI="true"
redirectPort="8443"
compression="on"
compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,application/json,application/javascript,application/x-javascript"
scheme="http"
proxyName="<my_Host>"
proxyPort="80"
/>

and...

<Context path="/stash"
docBase="${catalina.home}/atlassian-stash"
reloadable="false"
useHttpOnly="true"/>

Any ideas what is goind wrong???

Thx in advance

the machine is running debian 7 so apache is at 2.2.22

This means the Require command is probably not needed. That is for apache 2.4
