Apache proxy server setup(Ubuntu 10+)

In your apache2 server you have the folder /etc/apache2/sites-available

To edit the default file you should change the file permission
The code will be
sudo chmod 777 /etc/apache2/sites-available/default



You need to add these two lines in the default file and the line should not be in the outside of
<VirtualHost>................</VirtualHost>


ProxyPass        /path  http://www.google.com/
ProxyPassReverse /path http://www.google.com/


after that you should do enable the proxy and proxy_http. The command will be like that

sudo a2enmod proxy
sudo a2enmod proxy_http


Atlast, you should reload the apache server

 sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload


The paste the url in the browser :

localhost/path


It will redirect you in google.com site
