Requirements¶
Obviously you need a running web server and a XMPP server with BOSH support.
Web server¶
Apache¶
If not already done, install apache on your Debian-based distribution:
sudo apt install apache2
Enable the apache proxy module:
sudo a2enmod proxy
sudo a2enmod proxy_http
Add the proxy definition to your vhost configuration of your host-application
server (e.g. /etc/apache/sites-available/default):
ProxyPass /http-bind/ http://localhost:5280/http-bind/
ProxyPassReverse /http-bind/ http://localhost:5280/http-bind/
Reload apache configuration:
sudo service apache2 reload
Finished!
Lighttpd¶
Enable the mod_proxy module and add the proxy definition in
/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:
server.modules += ( "mod_proxy" )
proxy.server = (
"/http-bind" => (
( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 5280 )
)
)
Here is an alternative example of a vhost config.
In the lighttpd.conf enable the mod_proxy module:
server.modules = (
...
"mod_proxy"
...
)
...
# include all files that are under vhosts
include_shell "cat /etc/lighttpd/vhosts/*.conf"
and in vhosts/cloud.myserver.com.conf:
$HTTP["host"] == "cloud.myserver.com" {
...
proxy.server = (
"/http-bind" => (
( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 5280 )
)
)
}
Nginx¶
Enable the proxy pass in your Nginx vhost config:
server {
...
location /http-bind {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5280;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
tcp_nodelay on;
}
}
