HAProxy and 2 webservers
- by enrico
I have a website that is split into two different servers:
chat server in node.js
normal website (lighttpd + php + whatever)
now, I have set HAProxy in the same machine as node.js chat, so that when my website is accessed, it will redirect to the chat login. (Eg: mysite.com/messenger)
What I want to do now is to put a link on the chat page to send to the other part of the website which has a normal files tree, like home.php, photos.php, settings.php, etc.
but I really have no clue how this whole redirection works.
Also, what about URL rewriting? If I have like info.php?item=phone and want to change it to mysite.com/phone ... is this something I should do with HAProxy or with lighttpd?
Thanks in advance.
