Simple proxy misunderstanding

[benclade]

Hello,

I’ve been working through many OpenIG features and functionality and seem to be missing something on how the proxy is actually working. I’ve done a fresh install of openig on jetty to keep things super simple.

First config is a super simple proxy to a single app (www.test1.com), basic config.json and 99-default.json as shown in 4.0 gateway guide. Changed my browser /etc/hosts file for http://www.test1.com to point to openig. This works as expected.

Second config is another app (www.test2.com). No openig config changes, just modified my browser systems /etc/hosts to point to same openig ip as configured for http://www.test1.com. For a request to http://www.test2.com, I am expecting openig to lookup http://www.test2.com and route those requests to the new app, but it is not. All requests to http://www.test2.com are simply routed to the first configured app http://www.test1.com.

It’s clear I must be missing something, can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks!

Solved my issue. Did not completely understand how the baseURI in config.json was functioning. Removing a baseURI value allowed both sites to proxy as expected.
