My Traefik config for WordPress contains the following docker-labels:
- "traefik.backend=wordpress"
- "traefik.docker.network=web"
- "traefik.frontend.rule=Host:MyHostName.net;PathPrefix:/blog"
- "traefik.enable=true"
- "traefik.port=80"
Now requesting the url "https://MyHostName/blog" seems to reach the service which seems to return a redirect to "https://MyHostName/wp-admin...".
I cannot use subdomains.
How can I solve this?
UPDATE 0
First thing to do should be adding the Filter "PathPrefixStrip:/blog" to remove the "/blog" prefix when forwarding the request to the service. Correct?
But how do I modify (for example) a redirect request to add the prefix "/blog" to the redirect URL?
UPDATE 1
At https://github.com/containous/traefik/issues/985 my question is "discussed" and a solution seems to be merged (https://github.com/containous/traefik/pull/1442).
In short: Stripped prefixes will be added as the respective header (X-Forwarded-Prefix).
I will check that and write down the results here.

UPDATE 2
Now I created a request looking like this:
https://MYHOSTNAME/blog
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8

The "PathPrefixStrip" seems to work in the direction CLIENT>>SERVICE. This is what my traefik log contains:

"
But the redirection answer looks as follows in my browser:
HTTP/2.0 302 Found
cache-control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0
content-length: 0
content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

location: https://MYHOSTNAME/wp-admin/install.php
server: Apache/2.4.25 (Debian)
X-Firefox-Spdy: h2
x-powered-by: PHP/7.2.2
So the redirect-response does not contain any information about the stripped path prefix "/blog".
UPDATE 3
At the end it looks like a problem of the served software inside the container that does not handle the header.

Any ideas?
Maybe you should add all possible values in your PathPrefixStrip: / blog
rule eg.
PathPrefixStrip: /blog,/wp-admin,/abc,/xyz
In many cases, it works for standard routes. The biggest problem is when your backend service does not listen to requests in the root /
but in some sub-dir /something/index.html
and that sub-dir takes resources from the root /
.
