HomeAssistant through Apache2 reverse proxy

Configuration
1

Hi all,

I have installed Home Assistant on a Debian with Docker.

I would like to expose it externally as https ://www.mysite.org/ha

I already have other apps configured and working like https ://www.mysite.org/app1, https ://www.mysite.org/app2, etc. and www.mysite.org has the correct SSL certificate, which I would like to use with Home Assistant via Apache reverse proxy.

I read some articles about this, but I didn’t solve:

  • https ://www.mysite.org/ha responds with a “400: Bad Request”
  • I tried to change the external url to HA from the settings, but I get a “url is not allowed to have a path component for dictionary value @ data[‘external_url’]. Got https ://www.mysite.org/ha’”
  • I read that it might be necessary to remove the base_url, but where can I find the configuration.yaml file?

This is my apache configuration (sorry if it’s not the best one :():
