Reverse proxing through apache where backend server users cookie
authentication
Rajiv Ranjan 6 August 2005 00:54:14
Hi Guys,
I am trying to use apache as my reverse proxy for my backend server which uses
Cookie based authentication.
I am using mod_rewrite for the proxing part and am able to come till the login page.
But am unable to login to the system.
I suspect that it has something to do with the cookies not being reverse proxied or something.
I am using Apache 2..0.54 on a windows XP system.
Can anyone please tell me what probably could be the issue with my configuration?
Regards,
Rajiv.

There is no reason that your cookie should be lost on it's way between the browser and the backend server. You do not need to do anything in particular to have the cookie forwarded to the application even when using rewrite rules for reverse proxying. Cookies are end-to-end headers and are not modified by Apache unless you do something peculiar in your configuration.
If the cookies are not included in requests from the browser, chances are that the browser does not send them. That can happen for several reasons: 1. The cookie domain does not match the domain of your site. 2. The cookie path does not match the path of the request. 3. The backend server does not set any cookies. 4. The secure cookie flag is set and the connection is not HTTPS.
You can check that by sniffing the HTTP exchanges between reverse proxy and backend server, or by using a browser tool like HTTPWatch.

You may need the ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain and/or ProxyPassReverseCookiePath directives. If your version of mod_proxy doesn't support them, upgrade or patch it.

The domain part in your cookie needs to be the domain as the browser sees it, not the hostname of your backend server.
Suppose you have www.mydomain.com, and this is proxied to backendservers backend1.mydomain.com and backend2.mydomain.com. The applications on the backend servers need to set cookies where domain=www.mydomain.com. Would the application set a cookie with for example "domain=backend1.mydomain.com" then the browser receives a cookie for another machine than the one it thinks its connected too, and ignores it.
When the backend application sends a valid cookie there is nothing you need to do with it in the rewrite rules.
Another tip: Get yourself firefox with the "LiveHTTPHeaders" addon. That way you can see what headers (incl cookies) your browser gets, and what it sends back to the server upon the next request.

I've been following this thread with great interest. A couple of months ago I was experiencing the same - I believe - problem. It involved the pubcookie (www.pubcookie.org) WebISO single sign-on software, which uses session cookies for authentication with a login server. It is my experience that they (the cookies) did indeed get lost between the backend server and the browser.

I put enough print debug statements into the code (both pubcookie and Apache) to verify that the cookies were being created, but they never made it back tothe client.

(FWIW, it's possible that this mail client will mangle the underscore character to "=5f", such that mod(underscore)proxy... looks like mod=5Fproxy...)
This patch would seemingly need to be incorporated by the Apache development team, and that is apparently what Brett wanted to do, but obviously it didn't get there. Maybe this forum will help in that effort.
I have tried to contact Brett, and the pubcookie development team, for recommendations for further action, but have not received a reply.
I hope this helps. If I am in error, any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is that Brett must submit any patch himself; we can't take patches from anywhere but the bugzilla (issues.apache.org) or mailing list (dev@httpd) and from noone but the original author.
If he's submitted it to bugzilla or dev@httpd, I'd appreciate the bug no or message id, I'm fighting with similar cookie issues over in mod_aspdotnet.

What on earth does this mean? Does it mean that the reverse proxy does send a Set-Cookie back to the browser but that the browser ignores it? In that case maybe the cookie path is wrong, or the cookie domain is wrong. Maybe the cookie is marked as secured but the connection is not SSL. There are a variety of reasons why a browser would not submit a cookie to a server.
It would be interesting to see a network trace of such a scenario where the cookie is "lost", or have access to a web site where the problem occurs. I am convinced that the culprit lies outside Apache and that the network trace would uncover that.
I personnaly use Apache 2.0 quite extensively in different reverse proxy configurations with or without rewrite. In some cases an Apache authentication module sets an encrypted session cookie, in other cases it is the backend J2EE server that does set the cookie. And Apache has never lost a cookie.
If you are convinced that Apache does not forward the cookie, I would advise you to post a bug report to issues.apache.org/bugzilla and include a detailed description of the scenario leading to the problem. The scenario should be as simple as possible and reproductible.

Unfortunately I do not have any of this information.
I did spend alot of time trying to trouble-shoot this. I assumed all along that there was a problem with the pubcookie software, but that turned out to be false. I put debug stuff in the pubcookie code, plus some in the apache code, to verify the creation and disappearance of the session cookies. I googled and eventually found and applied Brett's patch.
