Sharepoint Wiki through an Apache Reverse Proxy

apache-2.2sharepoint-2007

I have set up a reverse proxy in Apache for the purpose of redirecting traffic to my internal sharepoint server, amongst other things. The problem I am running into is, if I create a reference to a yet uncreated wiki page [[testLink]] then click the link, it returns a hard address to the internal server name, and thus, when outside the local network, doesn't work.

Is there any way to fix this? I am baffled, I don't even know where to start looking for logs on this matter.

Any help would be appreciated 🙂 Thanks!

Edit: I should note I suppose that this is the only part that doesn't seem to work correctly.

Edit2: Here is the code for the virtualhost;

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName sharepoint.mydomain.com 
ProxyPass / http://sharepointserver.mydomain.com/ 
ProxyPassReverse / http://sharepointserver.mydomain.com/
</VirtualHost>

Thanks guys for your input. Unfortunately, I think something was lost in translation. I have mod_proxy_html working (otherwise the other 99% of this sharepoint site wouldn't work). The problem is solely on a new page generated automatically in the wiki.

</VirtualHost>

Mod_Rewrite Apache ProxyPass

If Apache can't find a VirtualHost with a matching ServerName or ServerAlias, it uses the first VirtualHost found in the config file as a default. With the configuration above, I think that for example "www.newsite.com" would end up being handled by the oldsite.com VirtualHost.

Have you tried adding a ServerAlias line to each of the two main VirtualHosts - i.e.

<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName oldsite.com
    ServerAlias *.oldsite.com
    ...
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName newsite.com
    ServerAlias *.newsite.com
    ...
</VirtualHost>
