Plugin details

This plugin is designed to allow your Rails application to reside behind a reverse proxy. When the plugin is configured and the application is running in production mode, any URLs generated by Rails helpers will automatically be prefixed with the host and path you specify.

Documentation

Install the plugin: 
ruby script/plugin install http://svn.napcsweb.com/public/reverse_proxy_fix

An organization may be interested in running a Rails application behind a reverse proxy such as Apache. However, any URLs generated by the Rails appliction would expose the proxy.

For example, a front-end server http://www.mydomain.com/app1/ might be mapped to http://backend.mydomain.com:3000/

The plugin would be configured to prepend http://www.mydomain.com/app1 to all URLs generated by the application.
