I have a react js app running on localhost:3000 on my vps (godaddy).
I have set up a reverse proxy using Apache web server on /var/www/html/ecommerce/app by setting .htaccess like this:
DirectoryIndex disabled RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [P,L] RewriteRule ^$ [P,L] The idea is to access the app via .
Right now the page fails to load. Any help would be appreciated.
To test if the app is indeed running on I made an SSH tunnel:
ssh -L 3000:$GD_IP:3000 -N logan@$GD_IP
And, when I view it from my end , it worked! So something is wrong with my Apache configuration?. I did a similar reverse proxy with port 8000 and it worked.
This one worked in a different case:
DirectoryIndex disabled RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [P,L] RewriteRule ^$ [P,L] By 'worked' I mean, say .htaccess file is under /var/www/html/ecommerce/api, then I can access it via .
When I visited the site opens! But why? .htaccess file is under /var/www/html/ecommerce/app so I was thinking it will be accessible via ?
