HAProxy stats page
-
Hi,
Thanks in advance for any help or direction you can provide. I am currently running pfSense 2.1beta and have HAProxy-full package installed. Everything is working fine except I am unable to access the HAProxy stats page. I believe I have everything filled in correctly, but when I try to access the HAProxy stats page it goes to the backend web server instead.
Here's my configuration:
/var/etc/haproxy.cfg file contents:
global
maxconn 9999999
uid 80
gid 80
nbproc 4
chroot /var/empty
daemonlisten Frontend_HTTP
bind xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80
cookie SERVERID insert indirect
mode http
log global
option dontlognull
option httpclose
option forwardfor
maxconn 99999

srvtimeout 30000

stats uri /haproxy?stats
stats realm haproxystats
stats auth admin:password

server web2_http 10.10.10.22:80 cookie web2 check inter 1000 weight 20Whenever I go to /haproxy?stats the request gets forwarded to one of the backend server instead. Any ideas?

Did you changed you internal dns info for this site from internal direct ip to pfsense ip you configured on haproxy?

I am accessing the haproxy stats site using pfSense's public IP from a computer outside of the internal network. The public IP is configured as a VIP on pfSense if that will make a difference.
I also just tried accessing the haproxy stats site from the internal network, still no go. I used the pfSense LAN IP.

Okay, I am not sure what exactly fixed my issue but this is the sequence of things I tried. I decided to update to the latest 2.1beta snapshot and that broke my haproxy-full package totally (wasn't able to start the haproxy service). To fix that issue, I re-install the haproxy-full package but kept my existing configuration. After the re-install, haproxy service started successfully and I am able to access the haproxy stats page now!
I hope that will help anyone with similar issue as mine.
