Hi,

I am evaluating stunnel for a project. I want to translate a HTTP call to HTTPS. When I specify the URL to send to in the config file, I get error ""Unknown TCP service "443/api/path""". My config is as below:

[https] client = yes accept  = 4433 connect = myurl.com:443/api/path http://myurl.com:443/api/path

This is not proper syntax. stunnel only routes connections to host:port; it's not an HTTP proxy. So you want this:

connect = myurl.com:443

When I try the same thing without the sub-paths "/api/path" the connection works, but of course it doesn't hit the URL I want to hit.

Your client needs to specify the /api/path in the URL it's trying to access.

How do I achieve this? I tried going through the documentation, but couldn't figure it out.

If you want to map e.g. http://localhost:4433/ -> https://myurl.com:443/api/path then you will need something more complicated than stunnel.

One way to do this is with a reverse-proxy on the "myurl" server-side: accept URLs with / and redirect them to /api/path.

But the best thing to do is probably change the client so that it is requesting /api/path and not /
