Need help with apache reverse proxy and websockets

[Guest]

I tried to set up apache as reverse proxy for my emby server.

Web app works fine. But I can't connect with an Emby app (e. g. Kodi) and I get 404 on every /embywebsocket request. Should be 101 I think.

 

I have running nextcloud on the same apache and try to use 8443 for Emby.

Any help appreciated.

This is one of several threads i've read before posting.

Can't get this work using "ProxyPass" with proxy_wstunnel.

 

Instead of that I used mod_rewrite for proxying the websocket traffic.

After that worked I added some secure headers.

Thats work for me too!! Thanks you very much!! I read severals post but the solution is yours:

 

My vhost finally looks like:

<VirtualHost *:443>
	ServerName my_server.com

	ServerAdmin webmaster@[member="Localhost"]
	DocumentRoot /var/www

# La etiqueta env=!dontlog es una variable para que no se registren esos accesos:
	SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/emby/videos/*" dontlog
	SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/emby/Sessions/*" dontlog
	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined env=!dontlog

# Media Server Emby
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{HTTP:Connection} Upgrade [NC]
        RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} websocket [NC]
        RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ ws://localhost:8096/$1 [P,L]
    
        ProxyPass /emby/ http://192.168.1.50:8096/
        ProxyPassReverse /emby/ http://192.168.1.50:8096/
        Redirect permanent /emby /emby/

<IfModule mod_headers.c>
  Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15768000; includeSubDomains; preload"
</IfModule>

SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/my_server.com/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/my_server.com/privkey.pem
Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf

</VirtualHost>

Could you explain me why you added some secure headers? Emby does not have integrated?
