    Hi to all,
    Does anyone knows how to use proxy to a https server?

    some illustartion:

    www->https->myserver->https->appserver

    I could do a https on myserver and also https on the appserver from myserver

    If I proxy http to appserver then it would work but as for now appserver serve pages on https and the DocumentRoot is on another folder then http

    Thanks in advance

    You need to either buy an SSL certificate or make a self-signed one and install mod_ssl and add the certificate yourself.

    Provided that server has https support, and you have openssl support, that should be OK.

    Why not change the DocumentRoot to match the one serving the http (unsecure) pages?
