New Pleskian
Dear all,
Can anyone tell me how I should to set up a secure websocket server with Plesk?
At this point I have set up the Plesk firewall so that traffic from/to port 8080 is allowed and I have a websocket server (Ratchet - a PHP implementation) running perfectly (but only for non-secure (ws) websockets). I also have a SSL wildcard certificate in place (covers all the subdomains), which is set to be the Plesk default certificate.
I read about a proxy_wstunnel module for Apache, but I can't activate it under "Tools and settings -> Apache web server settings" because when I select it and apply, Plesk serves me the following error:
"Error: START httpd_modules_ctl --enable proxy_wstunnel websrvmng: /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/apache_control_adapter execution failed: websrvmng: /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/apache_control_adapter execution failed:"
After that, Apache won't start until I change the config file in "/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-base.conf" and comment out the newly added line:
LoadModule proxy_wstunnel_module /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_proxy_wstunnel.so
After that config line is 'gone', I can execute "apachectl" and everything is running again.
I have tried adding several additional directives for HTTP(S) under "Websites and domains -> {subdomain} -> Apache & Nginx settings", all along the lines of:
ProxyPass / wss://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / wss://localhost:8080
However, everytime I try to connect with a secure websocket client, the connection simply times out - it isn't working.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance!
