Hello everyone, I was wondering how it would be possible for me to reverse proxy a Tor hidden website using Apache2? I've already set up a reverse proxy for clear net websites but I don't have a clue on how I would do this for Tor hidden sites.

Thanks

You can, if you install Tor (not Tor browser) on your computer.

There is a tutorial how to install tor for that on windows https://bitstobytes.org/tor/

Hi yes, I am running Debian buster and have Tor running as a daemon. Though I would like to know how I could make Apache actually proxy the .onion's? So I guess I'd have to make Apache listen under the Tor SOCKS5 proxy? Though I am not entirely sure.

Just setting the tor url in "ProxyPass" and "ProxyPassReverse" gives me a "502 Proxy Error"

Code:
Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request

Reason: DNS lookup failure for: (imagine a tor V2 or V3 url here).onion
