Apache SSL reverse proxy to a Embed Tomcat
- by ggarcia24
I'm trying to put in place a reverse proxy for an application that is running a tomcat embed server over SSL. The application needs to run over SSL on the port 9002 so I have no way of "disabling SSL" for this app. The current setup schema looks like this:
[192.168.0.10:443 - Apache with mod_proxy] --> [192.168.0.10:9002 - Tomcat App]
After googling on how to make such a setup (and testing) I came across this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/861137
Which lead to make my current configuration (to try to emulate the --secure-protocol=sslv3 option of wget)
/etc/apache2/sites/enabled/default-ssl:
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
SSLProxyEngine On
SSLProxyProtocol SSLv3
SSLProxyCipherSuite SSLv3
ProxyPass /test/ https://192.168.0.10:9002/
ProxyPassReverse /test/ https://192.168.0.10:9002/
LogLevel debug
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error-ssl.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access-ssl.log combined
</VirtualHost>
The thing is that the error log is showing error:14077102:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unsupported protocol

If I do a
wget --secure-protocol=sslv3 --no-check-certificate https://192.168.0.10:9002/
it works perfectly, but from apache is not working.
I'm on an Ubuntu Server with the latest updates running apache2 with mod_proxy and mod_ssl enabled:
~$ cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04

Hope that anyone may help
