Lava diversion barriers have had some success in guiding lava away from towns and harbors.

Lava diversion channels can also help control the lava. The earth removed from the channels can be used to make the barriers.

Pumping seawater and spraying it on the lava can slow down the flow and create a further diversion barrier.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a guaranteed lava-proof wall.

Is steel lava proof?

Steel is not lava proof; it has a melting point of around 2,500°F (1,370°C), while lava temperatures typically range from 1,300°F to 2,200°F (700°C to 1,200°C). When exposed to lava, steel would quickly weaken and melt, losing its structural integrity. Therefore, it cannot withstand the extreme heat of molten lava.

Can lava proof glass stop a volcano from erupting?

No. First of all, you would be hard pressed to find "lava proof glass." Second, magma (what lava is called underground) does not melt is way through rock; much of the time it fractures the rock, as it works its way up under enormous pressure. Even then, it can find another rout to the surface.
