Hi,

I'm trying to install webgui using wre 0.8.3 and webgui 7.3.19 (on linux). 

I want to run the wre console without using the root user (I have had it running succesfully as root). I understand this blocks out certain port ranges for me and so I want to get it setup to run on a port other than 80.

During the setup I selected the moxproxy port as 1080 and the modperl port as 8082.  Everything goes ok until I add a site, then I have problems starting Modproxy - I get the following error (multiple times) in the modproxy.error.log

[Fri Apr 18 16:38:56 2008] [error] (111)Connection refused: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:80 (localhost) failed

Which part of the conf do I need to change to resolve this - I just can't see anything obvious as to why it is still refering to port 80....

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

Here are my config file details... (servername as been omitted)

I changed the sitename in eqdev.conf to the full server name

<VirtualHost *:1080>
 ServerName <full servername> 

ServerAlias <full servername> eqdev
 CustomLog /data/domains/eqdev/logs/access.log combined
 DocumentRoot /data/domains/eqdev/public

    # turn on mod_rewrite
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteLog "/data/wre/var/logs/modrewrite.log"
 RewriteLogLevel 0

 # block IIS related attacks from getting to WebGUI
 RewriteRule RewriteRule RewriteRule RewriteRule # leave static stuff to be served directly by modproxy
    RewriteRule    RewriteRule    # For speed we only pass on uploads if there is a .wgaccess file
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}             ^(.*/)
    RewriteCond ${DOCUMENT_ROOT}%1.wgaccess     !-f    
    RewriteRule                      - [L]

    # deal with port number in HTTP_HOST
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} :1080
    RewriteRule # proxy webgui pages
    RewriteRule /VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:8082>
 ServerName <full server name>
 DocumentRoot /data/domains/eqdev/public
    SetEnvIf SSLPROXY "1" \
        SSLPROXY
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlInitHandler WebGUI
    PerlSetVar WebguiConfig eqdev.conf
</VirtualHost>

Thanks for the reply koen, but it didn't make any difference.  I actually tried the installation twice (with the versions you suggested) once as a non root user and once as root - using the same port numbers each time. In both cases I got the same error as before...

eg [Wed Apr 23 16:47:18 2008] [error] (111)Connection refused: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:80 (localhost) failed

The WRE console reports that modproxy didnt start succesfully but I can see the processes have started on the linux server...

a_webgui 26280     1  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start
a_webgui 26281 26280  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start
a_webgui 26282 26280  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start
a_webgui 26283 26280  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start
a_webgui 26284 26280  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start
a_webgui 26285 26280  0 16:16 ?        00:00:00 /data/wre/prereqs/bin/httpd -f /data/wre/etc/modproxy.conf -D WRE-modproxy -E /data/wre/var/logs/modproxy.error.log -k start

Also, if I go to the url my site should be working on eg <ServerName>:1080 I get:

Bad Gateway
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.

I've tried another few random port no's as well and its the same each time.

Incidently, I have had webgui working before using modproxy port 80 on this machine. (everything was deleted before I started the new install - WebGUI folder, domains folder and WRE folder)

Thanks
