Continuation of 1f0cc92b330b42. As an explanation for the problem: when saying `localhost` on the host, it sometimes gets resolved to `::1` and sometimes to `127.0.0.1`. On the unfortunate occassions that it gets resolved to `::1`, the container won't be able to serve the request, because Docker containers don't have IPv6 enabled by default. To avoid this problem, we simply prevent any lookups from happening and explicitly use `127.0.0.1`.
Apache reverse-proxy
This directory contains sample files that show you how to do reverse-proxying using Apache.
This is for when you wish to have your own Apache webserver sitting in front of Matrix services installed by this playbook. See the Using your own webserver, instead of this playbook's nginx proxy documentation page.
To use your own Apache reverse-proxy, you first need to disable the integrated nginx server.
You do that with the following custom configuration (inventory/matrix.<your-domain>/vars.yml
):
matrix_nginx_proxy_enabled: false
You can then use the configuration files from this directory as an example for how to configure your Apache server.
NOTE: this is just an example and may not be entirely accurate. It may also not cover other use cases (enabling various services or bridges requires additional reverse-proxying configuration).
