Background: I have an application called geoserver that is hidden behind an apache server (apache server acting as a reverse proxy). There is a specific endpoint that when users hit, i am trying to redirect to another endpoint.
so when a user tried to go to http://geoserver:8080/geoserver/ it always gets redirected to http://geoserver:8080/geoserver/web/
The reason i want this is because sensitive information is revealed at that original endpoint and users should always be directed to geoserver/web when trying to hit that.
How do you use the apache Redirect directive to do what I am trying to do?
Below is the code that i am working with
ProxyPreserveHost on
ProxyAddHeaders on
ProxyPass /geoserver http://localhost:8080/userinfo
ProxyPassReverse /geoserver http://localhost:8080/userinfo
<Location /geoserver>
RequestHeader set X-gsusername %{oidc_claim_username}e
RequestHeader set X-gsroles "unclass"
</Location>
# /userinfo
# Manipulate user info in request headers into GeoServer X-gsusername and X-gsroles request headers
ProxyPass /userinfo http://geoserver:8080/geoserver
ProxyPassReverse /userinfo http://geoserver:8080/geoserver
# Change request headers
<Location /userinfo>
# If the user countryofaffiliation is USA, then append role fouo
SetEnvIf oidc_claim_countryofaffiliation "USA" fouo
RequestHeader merge X-gsroles "fouo" env=fouo
RequestHeader edit* X-gsroles "," ";"
Redirect "/geoserver" GeoServerPrivateUrlValue/web
</Location>
