CMS behind reverse proxy

You are correct about this - I would definitely put this as a downside, and the reason we’ve added examples for remote MySQL/MariaDB configurations.

yes, i agree with this too

Thank you both for your time to discuss this, much appreciated.

I agree with the posts above, indeed.

Alex,

I tried to setup xibo to TCP proxy with HAPROX, I add 2 xibo to the haproxy.conf file and the proxy to detect my xibo server but when I login from the proxy server I got this error…

Sorry the form has expired. Please refresh.

If I disable one server from the haproxy.conf file, I can login to the proxy server just like I login directly to the xibo server just fine. Any ideas what I need to check and make it work

haproxy can’t do anything with the connection in TCP mode. It’s just passing raw TCP packets through.

If you want haproxy to direct traffic to a particular backend depending on the host header, then you need to use it in HTTP mode.

Alex,

Wondering if there is a way to setup CMS with port 443.

I got CMS setup as http://example.com:443 but prefer to setup with https://example.com instead.

We provide an example of an Apache reverse proxy with SSL in the manual. The same is easily possible with haproxy. You just need to point haproxy to your SSL certificates. There are many many guides out there on configuring haproxy in that way.
