I'm hosting my vueJS frontend on an apache server. Without running the apache just by calling "npm run serve" and visiting my page over http (https is enabled on express backend), I can successfully request to the backend.

When starting apache and visiting the page over https (self-signed SSL certificate), I can't send requests.

Firefox error:

Quote:
Cross-source (cross-origin) request blocked: The same source rule prohibits reading the external resource on
https://143.93.46.35:60702/user/login. (Reason: CORS request failed).

And chrome:

Quote:
xhr.js:160 POST https://143.93.46.35:60702/user/login net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR


My ssl-conf is:

Code:
    <VirtualHost _default_:443>
            #ServerName pvapp.test-campus.de
            SSLEngine on
            SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/apache-selfsigned.crt
            SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/apache-selfsigned.key
   
            DocumentRoot /var/www/client/pvapp-client/dist
   
            #<FilesMatch "\.(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$">
                            SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
            #</FilesMatch>
            #<Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
            #                SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
            #</Directory>
   
            #BrowserMatch "MSIE [2-6]" \
            #              nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
            #              downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
   
            ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
            CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
    </VirtualHost>


The vhost-conf:

Code:
    <VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@test.de
        DocumentRoot /var/www/client/pvapp-client/dist
        Redirect permanent / https://inf-education-47.umwelt-campus.de
   
        <Directory /var/www/client/pvapp-client/dist>
            AllowOverride None
            Order allow,deny
            Allow from All
            #Require all denied
            #Options -Indexes
   
            <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
                Options -MultiViews
                RewriteEngine On
                RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
            </IfModule>
        </Directory>
   
        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test.com-error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/test.com-access.log combined
        SecRuleEngine On
    </VirtualHost>


Appreciate all help/hints! Smile

Why Redirect permanent and not a reverse proxy?

Would I need a reverse proxy to be able to communicate from the frontend (apache) with the backend (node)?

Cause that's the current problem..

Yepp the Cross-source (cross-origin) would solve with a reverse proxy.

Something like
Code:

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
# [...]
# vhost config
ProxyPass /user/ http://localhost:60702/user/
ProxyPassReverse /user/ http://localhost:60702/user/


Then you could be able to call from the frontend on the same server without a different domain name and without an extra port.
