Configuring Apache v2.2.x as a reverse proxy to NodeBB¶
Prerequisites:
build-essential
automake
libtool
- You can install these packages via
`apt
<https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Installation_commands>`__
You need to manually compile and add the module mod_proxy_wstunnel
to the Apache 2.2 branch. If you’re running Ubuntu (prior to 14.04) or
Debian, you’re likely on the 2.2 branch of code.
Please use this guide to backport the mod_proxy_wstunnel
module into the 2.2 code base of Apache:

*Note: On ubuntu, if you’re missing the ./configure file, you need to
first run ./buildconf
. After this is complete, you will then be able
to use ./configure
