[Dancer-users] deployment problems with apache + starman

[Alex Knowles]

There's a behind_proxy setting in config which is probably exactly for
this situation:

http://search.cpan.org/~xsawyerx/Dancer-1.3080/lib/Dancer/Config.pm#behind_proxy_%28boolean%29


there's also a proxypreservehost setting in apache proxy which helps.

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypreservehost
