this answer is a WORK IN PROGRESS. I'll need help to get it good

1. install mercurial on your linux server (so you can clone the modules you need from bitbucket)

sudo apt-get install mercurial

2. clone web_im, web_socketio, web_longpolling    (NOTE web_longpolling is included in the web_socketio repository)

sudo hg clone https://bitbucket.org/anybox/web_im

sudo hg clone https://bitbucket.org/anybox/web_socketio

https://bitbucket.org/anybox/web_im  comes with a howto which I am trying to understand and follow.

Make your Nginx/Apache conf

example conf for nginx:

worker_processes 1;

 

events {

        worker_connections 1024;

}

 

http {

    server {

        listen 80;

        server_name www.myopenerp.fr;

        location /socket.io {

            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8068; proxy_http_version 1.1;

 

            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;

            proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";

            proxy_set_header Host $host;

 

            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;

 

            proxy_redirect off;

        }

       location / {

            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8069;

            }

        }

    }

/etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 www.yourdomian.com

the port:

8069: the OpenERP server

8068: the SocketIO server

/socketio is the default path to dispatch the poll

--------------------------

first serious problem: I have no clue about Nginx (only know you can use that for making OpenERP accessable from the internet (reverse proxy). I wonder whether this http://www.schenkels.nl/2013/01/reverse-ssl-proxy-using-nginx-with-openerp-v7/ would help getting where you need to get?
