Apache virtual host reverse proxy example

-----------------------------------------

Here is a sample configuration file for apache using proxy::

    <VirtualHost *:80>

            ServerName hg.myserver.com

            ServerAlias hg.myserver.com

            <Proxy *>

              Order allow,deny

              Allow from all

            </Proxy>

            #important !

            #Directive to properly generate url (clone url) for pylons

            ProxyPreserveHost On

            #rhodecode instance

            ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:5000/

            ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:5000/

            #to enable https use line below

            #SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1

    </VirtualHost>
