Apache can be configured to rewrite the domain. The necessary configuration on the reverse proxy is
Code: Select all
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain 127.0.0.1:1312 blog.zugschlus.de
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain 127.0.0.1 blog.zugschlus.de
I haven't really tried to trigger the issue yet, but at least iceweasel and konqueror allow me to log in again and do not throw me back to the login screen when I do things in the admin suite.
Now I need to understand why things have been working sometimes, and sometimes, not - with the wrong cookie domain I would have expected things to not work at all.

Hi!

Awesome.
I have no experience with Reverse Proxies, so I'm sorry I didn't know about this as a possible factor earlier.
Regards,
Garvin

Three days later, the issue has not shown any more, so I'd like to call this case closed. I have learned a lot of things (that I never intended to learn), and I really appreciate all people's help. Personal thanks to Garvin to help diagnosing this, I owe you at least a drink.
