Strictly speaking the error does not come from aolserver, but from OpenACS. The OpenACS request processor does not support proxy requests. While there are some solutions for proxying with aolserver, it would require some programming work to integrate these with OpenACS. My recommendation is to use squid/nginx/apache or one of the various other proxy solutions a proxy server.

Gustaf,

In my case, i don't want to use my server as proxy.

I want to reject this kind of connection.

Any suggestion?

Regards

César.

I realized that it does not happen this error with aolserver 4.5, only with aolserver 4.0.10, I don't know exactly why.

To my installation with aolserver 4.0.10, I made the following patch, inside the proc “rp_handler” in the file “acs-tcl/tcl/request-processor-procs.tcl”.

The patch is:

if {"http://[ns_set iget [ns_conn headers] Host]" ne [ns_conn location]} {
return [ns_conn close]
}
