      Well, I use haproxy for https as I told you with no issues.

      Can you try haproxy again using source as balance method, one pool for http and another pool for https?

        yeah i will give it a try with haproxy (legacy) again and see if it can work.

        when i tried i used a virtual carp IP (internet IP) and there i could also access the stats, but i didn't like that the stats were accessible from internet.
        is it possible to access the stats (and setup haproxy) in another IP and not in the external IP of haproxy?

          I enable stats on internal pools only. Any stat page show stats for all pools.

            haproxy doesn't seem to be working for me :/ it's not even forwarding the requests to web1 or web2, i don't know what i am doing wrong there  :-[

            furthermore, after some tries to edit the configuration for the frontend is accepting the changes but is not updating the configuration, it seems like there is a bug in haproxy legacy (at least 2.0-RELEASE (amd64)).

            as for the load balancer what i noticed is that when i take web1 down i can see from the pool tab that web1 is down (red) but on the virtual server tab it keeps "targeting" (forwarding) the requests to web1, which means that the virtual server is not refreshing the status right after the pool.

                here it's my configuration of haproxy…what am i doing wrong ???

                the virtual IP is on the wan interface and it's CARP.
                when the client is sending https request is not getting any answer
                with http requests is going to pfsense web interface.

                thnx once again man!!

                  Can you try this setup with legacy package?

                  I'm using it, so it will be easier to me to compare my setup with yours.

                  This week I`ll rename haproxy-lagacy to haproxy-full as it has more options then current 1.2 package.

                  Both(1.2 and 1.0) use the same 1.4.19 version of haproxy.

                  att,

                      On backends I do not fill up Advanced pass thru and do not set cookies on Servers.

                      The other settings looks similar here.

                      Enable stats and try to see what happens.

                        hey marcelloc,

                        thanks a lot man!! i removed the "server cookies" from the backends and also "advanced pass thru" from the frontends and seems to be working great so far!! :)

                        btw, as i don't want the stats to be accessible from internet.. is it possible to make the stats accessible just from VPN connection in some other internal IP address? or i should just disable the stats?

                          Publish another haproxy server config with internal address, stats enabled and assign the http backend just to get stats working.

                            thnx once again!!

                            i published haproxy in an internal ip address as well for the stats, it was not necessary to assign any backend.

                            best regards
