+# Quick Fix for CloudSticks Apache Proxy
+
+## Problem
+The Node.js server is running on port 3000, but Apache is not forwarding `/api` and `/socket.io` requests to it.
+
+## Solution
+
+### Step 1: Enable Apache Proxy Modules
+
+Run these commands on your CloudSticks server:
+
+```bash
+sudo a2enmod proxy
+sudo a2enmod proxy_http
+sudo a2enmod proxy_wstunnel
+sudo a2enmod rewrite
+```
+
+### Step 2: Find Your Apache Config File
+
+CloudSticks likely uses one of these locations:
+```bash
+# Check which file exists:
+ls -la /etc/apache2/sites-available/connect5*
+ls -la /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default-le-ssl.conf
+ls -la /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf
+```
+
+### Step 3: Edit the Config File
+
+```bash
+# Use nano or vi to edit (replace with your actual file):
+sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/connect5.conf
+```
+
+### Step 4: Add These Lines
+
+Add these lines **inside** your `<VirtualHost *:443>` block (before `</VirtualHost>`):
+
+```apache
+# Proxy API and Socket.io to Node.js
+ProxyPreserveHost On
+ProxyPass /api http://localhost:3000/api
+ProxyPassReverse /api http://localhost:3000/api
+ProxyPass /socket.io http://localhost:3000/socket.io
+ProxyPassReverse /socket.io http://localhost:3000/socket.io
+
+# WebSocket support
+RewriteEngine On
+RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket [NC]
+RewriteRule /(.*)           ws://localhost:3000/$1 [P,L]
+```
+
+### Step 5: Test and Restart Apache
+
+```bash
+# Test configuration
+sudo apache2ctl configtest
+
+# If OK, restart Apache
+sudo systemctl restart apache2
+```
+
+### Step 6: Verify It Works
+
+```bash
+# Test API endpoint
+curl https://connect5.beyondcloud.technology/api/db-status
+
+# Should return JSON with "connected": true
+```
+
+Then visit https://connect5.beyondcloud.technology/ in your browser!
+
+---
+
+## Alternative: Quick .htaccess Method
+
+If you can't edit the Apache config, try adding this to `.htaccess` in your project root:
+
+```apache
+RewriteEngine On
+
+# Proxy API requests
+RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/api/
+RewriteRule ^api/(.*)$ http://localhost:3000/api/$1 [P,L]
+
+# Proxy Socket.io requests
+RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/socket\.io/
+RewriteRule ^socket\.io/(.*)$ http://localhost:3000/socket.io/$1 [P,L]
+```
+
+**Note**: This requires `AllowOverride All` in your Apache config.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check if Node.js is Running
+```bash
+ps aux | grep "node server.js"
+curl http://localhost:3000/api/db-status
+```
+
+### Check Apache Error Logs
+```bash
+sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/error.log
+```
+
+### Check if Modules are Enabled
+```bash
+apache2ctl -M | grep proxy
+```
+
+Should show:
+- proxy_module
+- proxy_http_module
+- proxy_wstunnel_module
