</Proxy>

ProxyPassReverse /socket.io/1/websocket ws://127.0.0.1:4567/socket.io/1/websocketProxyPass /socket.io/ http://127.0.0.1:4567/socket.io/

ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:4567/ -
@xCausxn I wrote the guide for Apache, but like you, this kinda made me think about switching to nginx and I did. Using php-fpm for handling php requests, and the passthrough works like a charm.
The main thing about apache is that most distros have apache 2.2.x which doesnt include the proper proxy tunnel module for web sockets. You either need 2.4.x, or backport the module to 2.2.x which is in the guide.
Since moving to nginx though, I question why I didnt do it sooner..
