Hello, I want to install searxng without using Docker on my homeserver so I basically run the install script from the official documentation. Already tried to use the automatic script for setting up apache and it basically worked by exposing /searxng. But I would like to do something simpler as I like that apache would only expose localhost:80 (for example) to use a reverse proxy later to point to it. Just wondering how this configuration work and how I could do something that applicates to my use case :
# -*- coding: utf-8; mode: apache -*-
LoadModule ssl_module /mod_ssl.so
LoadModule headers_module /mod_headers.so
LoadModule proxy_module /mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_uwsgi_module /mod_proxy_uwsgi.so
# LoadModule setenvif_module /mod_setenvif.so
#
# SetEnvIf Request_URI /searxng dontlog
# CustomLog /dev/null combined env=dontlog
<Location /searxng>
Require all granted
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
# Allow from fd00::/8 192.168.0.0/16 fe80::/10 127.0.0.0/8 ::1
Allow from all
# add the trailing slash
RedirectMatch 308 /searxng$ /searxng/
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass unix:/usr/local/searxng/run/socket|uwsgi://uwsgi-uds-searxng/
# see flaskfix.py
RequestHeader set X-Scheme %{REQUEST_SCHEME}s
RequestHeader set X-Script-Name /searxng
# see limiter.py
RequestHeader set X-Real-IP %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
RequestHeader append X-Forwarded-For %{REMOTE_ADDR}s
</Location>
# uWSGI serves the static files and in settings.yml we use::
#
# ui:
# static_use_hash: true
#
# Alias /searxng/static/ /usr/local/searxng/searxng-src/searx/static/
Any help here? Thank you very much
You state that you did use the install script, but also that you want to run it with docker. Did you follow the instructions in their docker repository? It’s quite easy to get it running - they included a complete docker-compose, a Caddyfile and all you need.

Edit, I’m dumb, I misread.
Said *without docker
You are going to need to provide a significant more amount of information. Like guide are you using, which specific step isn’t working, what error messages are you getting.
edited the original post sorry
You don’t need to use Apache if that’s confusing you. The project seems to include a full Caddyfile so that’s probably going to be easier for you.
Would like to understand it to customize it a bit and serve the service to a port instead of an URL for example
