Description

... and this leads to a "502 Bad Gateway" error.

This is the HTTP Request as captured with wireshark: *********************************************
COPY /svn/it/!svn/bc/24/svn-tests/foo1/bar HTTP/1.1
Request Method: COPY
Request URI: /svn/it/!svn/bc/24/svn-tests/foo1/bar
Request Version: HTTP/1.1
X-Forwarded-For: 192.168.168.104
X-Host: myclient.mydomain.ch
X-Forwarded-Proto: https
Host: myhost.mydomain.ch
User-Agent: SVN/1.4.4 (r25188) neon/0.26.3

Destination: https://myhost.mydomain.ch/svn/it/!svn/wrk/f9fa2da8-4979-4499-8ad6-367c849c5df3/svn-tests/foo2/bar
Overwrite: T

The configuration is: lighttpd running on port 443 using https, proxies requests to /svn to an apache running on the same machine on port 8088 using http.

As shown above, the lighttpd-proxy code should also rewrite "https://myhost.mydomain.ch" to "http://myhost.mydomain.ch" (in my case).
I didn't check whether it renames "myhost.mydomain.ch" but leaves https as it is or whether it doesn't rename anything.

After reading through the code, there's a solution for it:

  • Description updated (diff)
  • Status changed from New to Missing Feedback
  • Assignee deleted (jan)

Curious what your solution was.

Some other options:
  • mod_magnet could be used with some custom lua code to rewrite arbitrary headers, including Destination
  • lighttpd could be configured to run (a properly configured) svnserve as CGI instead of proxying back to Apache.

lighttpd 1.5.x branch has been abandoned.

lighttpd 1.4.x branch is now far more advanced and continues to be maintained.
