Hi ,
I have configured Haproxy servere on linux at 80 port and trying to do reverse proxy with backend on https protocol (443). Is it possible in haparoxy ?
Client -->httptraffic -->Haproxy server–>https traffic–>backend server
Is there any other solution for this scenario?
If I use proxy pass through functionality provided on tcp mode. It did work but client can see the backend server(this is not real reverse proxy)
Thanks !!

HAProxy 1.4 does not support ssl backends. Unfortunately, this is the default version in Ubuntu 14.04 and a number of other widely used distros releases. There is a PPA that provides more recent versions for Ubuntu. If you have it installed already, you can upgrade it to 1.5 by running:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vbernat/haproxy-1.5
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Then, in your HAProxy config (/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg), you’d have something like this:
frontend www-http
bind haproxy.public.ip.addr:80
reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto:\ http
default_backend www-backend
backend www-backend
balance roundrobin
server web-01 web01.priv.ip.addr:443 check ssl verify none
server web-02 web01.priv.ip.addr:443 check ssl verify none
