Apache Reverse Proxy

[former_member182416]

Hi

I have installed Apache Reverse Proxy to access my Portal and ECC6.

In the httpd config file , i have done the following settings.

<VirtualHost ipaddress:port>

ProxyPreserveHost On

ProxyPass /irj/ http://portalserver:50000/irj/

ProxyPassReverse /irj/ http://portalserver:50000/irj/

ProxyPass /eccdev/ http://eccserver:8000/eccdev/

ProxyPassReverse /eccdev/ http://eccserver:8000/eccdev/

</VirtualHost>

eccdev is external alias for the path

/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui/

With this setting when i when a request is made for eccdev/

it takes me to the ecc6 login page.

when i enter the required information , it just clears the username password fields.

i checked that the username password are correctly entered.

what is the problem ?

Regards

Rajendra

Hi,

Have you made sure that both of the DNS names in the reverse proxy config are in the same sub-domain, eg portal.xxx.com and eccdev.xxx.com? The two must be in the same subdomain for the SSO ticket from the portal to be visible to ECC.

Best regards,

Darren

Hi Darren ,

Thanks for the reply.

Our SSO between Portal and ECC6 works fine without Reverse Proxy.

If we access the Portal Through Reverse Proxy , when we navigate to any iViews say BSP iView , it asks for Username password. Once provided it works fine.

Second Scenario is Using Reverse Proxy to Directly access

SAP GUI . i.e without using Portal.

If i do not use Reverse Proxy , i can access my ECC6 webgui

through browser after providing the Login Details, but if i use Reverse Proxy then Even after providing the Login Details ,

the LogOn Box does not go and keeps asking for login details.

To summarize , i just want to acess the SAP GUI from Browser

using Reverse Proxy . I am able to do it without reverse Proxy .

Can you help ?

Hi

Adding Entries in the HTTPURLLOC Table Solved the Problem.
