manager for address-based virtual hosts?

[Paul Singleton]

Is there a version of the Manager app which
handles all address-based virtual hosts in a
Tomcat system?

I've tried ManagerX which embraces name-based
hosts but not the address-based ones which our
SSL-enabled apps require...

Re: Virtual hosts and Threads

When starting a new thread (ie sending a message to the list about a 
new topic) please do not reply to an existing message and change the 
subject line. To many of the list archiving services and mail clients 
used by list subscribers this  makes your new message appear as part 
of the old thread. This makes it harder for other users to find 
relevant information when searching the lists.


This is known as thread hijacking and is behaviour that is frowned 
upon on this list. Frequent offenders will be removed from the list.


The correct procedure is to create a new message with a new subject. 
This will start a new thread.

The request for the app results in page not found if I follow the

Can you guys have any idea on this and help me troubleshoot ???

Re: Manager webapp and virtual hosts

[Dan Baggott]

Mikolaj,

Hi.  Sorry to bother you but I saw this posting on the Tomcat list and
was wondering if you were able to successfully set up what you
describe?

I have mod_jk working fine and I'm now trying to do exactly what you mentioned:

my1.domain.com (apache + mod_jk) ===>   tomcat.domain.com/webapp1
my2.domain.com (apache + mod_jk) ===> tomcat.domain.com/webapp2

So far I haven't had much success.  If you've gained any insights that
you can share with me, I'd be very grateful.

Cheers,

Dan

Re: Help figuring out Virtual Hosts

[Jilles van Gurp]

You can use multiple hosttags in the server.xml, each with their own 
context. As described here

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html

"One or more Host elements are nested inside an Engine element. Inside 
the Host element, you can nest Context elements for the web applications 
associated with this virtual host. Exactly one of the Hosts associated 
with each Engine MUST have a name matching the defaultHost attribute of 
that Engine."


You give each application its own host and it should work fine. You can 
also use alias tags inside a host tag if you want an application to be 
available for multiple hosts.

Dola,
I believe in order to serve static content you'll need to create a
context XML file. I just posted an email outlining how I was able to get
virtual hosting working. An additional step in your case would be to
create a file [TOMCAT]/conf/Catalina/servera.com/ROOT.xml and include a
 definition. The your content would reside in the
[TOMCAT]/webapps-servera.com directory.

Re: Virtual Hosts

[Tom Burke]

Mahesh

Thanks for your help.

I think something I don't understand is: what's its root of the virtual 
server's appbase?


I have tomcat (5.0.28) installed in "c:\Tomcat 5.0", with the usual set 
of directories

within that - bin, common, conf, logs, server, shared, temp, webapps,
work. I don't have a development environment at all. I have applications
installed within webapps, using the defaulthost (localhost) and they
work fine. Here's a sample of my server.xml:



 
   

 

 
   
   
 

 
 
   

I've created a directory within webapps called 'some_host' and within
that is a simple jsp, a 'welcome' script. I know that the server, and an 
external PC, know (from use of Hosts files) that some_host.com is mapped 
to the server's IP address, and I can successfully ping that address. 
But I'm not getting the jsp to run! - I just get a 'page unavailable' 
response. There are no errors in the startup log so I think it must be 
that Tomcat doesn't know where to look for the welcome.jsp, which 
suggests that specifying appbase = "webapps/some_host" isn't working.

Hi Tom

"deploy" is a directory in any platform you are running Tomcat until
unless specified. You need to create the directory if not found.
Generally it can be found at /jboss/server/default/deploy

Re: Virtual Hosts

[Tom Burke]

I, too, am having problems configuring virtual hosts, in a Tomcat 5.0.28 
server, with no Apache, on a Windows XP machine. I've studied the 
documentation and am puzzled by one area in particular: the definition 
of 'appBase'. For example, in the text below you suggest putting this in 
the  section within server.xml:


appBase="deploy"

In a Windows environment, what is "deploy"? Is it a directory within the 
tomcat installation? If so, where? I can't see where this location is 
defined, it just seems to be mentioned in server.xml, in other examples 
as well as this one. Obviously there's something I'm not 
understanding...

Virtual Hosts

[Durfee, Bernard]

I am having trouble configuring virtual hosts in Tomcat 5.5.9. I have
two applications app01 and app02. I have 2 DNS entries
app01.myserver.com and app02.myserver.com that both point to the machine
on which Tomcat is running. How do I configure Tomcat to serve from
app01.war when app01.myserver.com is hit and app02.war when
app02.myserver.com is hit.

Thanks,
Bernie

Re: Got trouble with virtual hosts

Hm, so it should work, i got an actual version.
I found out something new:
When i open one of these jsp-sites on my server, it works fine. If i open
additional jsp-sites, tomcat goes down and i have to restart it. The log of
the site gives this outpuot:

Re: Got trouble with virtual hosts

[Parsons Technical Services]

Tomcat will handle them just fine with the current releases.

With the current versions of Tomcat, unless you are doing something special 
that requires a feature of Apache that is not in Tomcat, you can host 
multiple sites just fine. If load is an issue, take a look a the clustering. 
Otherwise just set up Tomcat with the virtual host and enjoy the simplicity.


Start here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/engine.html

Then read the link for host. Simply put, for each website put a host element
in for that site. But make sure you understand the default host.

Hi there

I dont know, what term to search for.. so excuse me, if there is already a
similar problem

I'm running a Webserver on Fedora Core 4

- Apache 2.0.54
- tomcat5-5.0.30-5jpp_6fc

I want to run about 13 Websites (html and jsp) over one virtual host. So i
defined NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.170 in httpd.conf. After this entry i
added the websites. For example:

-

 ServerName www.website.ch
 DocumentRoot /drbd/www/html/www.website.ch
 JKMount /*.jsp tomcat-worker1
 JKMount /*/servlet/ tomcat-worker1
 JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
 DirectoryIndex index.jsp index.html index.php index.htm index.shtml
index.cgi
 
  AllowOverride None

  AllowOverride None

The server.xml entry for this site is:
--
appBase="/drbd/www/html/www.website.ch"

unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
   
   

   

   
 
-

I'm replacing the actually active server with a new one. I overtook the
config-files from the active server, so they should work. The only change 
is

that thing with the virtual hosts. In the old config, all sites had their
own virtualhost setting (=> several virtual network interfaces). It would 
be

much more simple, when i only had one virtual host.
But, if i want to access a jsp website, i get an internal server error
mesage.
HTML-Sites work properly.

It seems, that tomcat cant translate the hostnames defined in httpd.conf.
Can only apache do this? Or do i have to do some additional changes to my
configs?

Any idea? Thanks for help beforehand!

Re: Manager webapp and virtual hosts

[Mahesh S Kudva]

This setup has been tested on Apache2+JBoss+mod_jk-1.2.14_for MacOSX. And 
am sure it will work on other platforms as well. This setup also handles 
Apache related webapps..

Make the required entries in the DNS

webapp.war: Extract the war file using zip and rename the folder 
with .war extension. Please put it in your deployment folder.

mod-jk.so: Obtain the modjk.so library file from www.apache.org and place 
then in the modules folder.

Virtual Hosts In Tomcat

Hi,
 
I have Tomcat 4.1 running on Server 2003. Now I want to point a new
domain to this box using virtual hosts. I have read all the
documentation and I'm still unclear where in the server.xml file to
place this virtual host. Can someone paste an example of the virtual

Any help would be appreciated. By the way, I am a newbie with Tomcat.
 
Thanks.

I'm using it on three tomcat 5.0.29 servers, each with a dozen or so vhosts,

For 1st part, did it here (2 sets of webapp depending on hostname used), must 
have 
the manager webapp deployed in each host (actually a soft link on
unix having webapps-for-somespecial-hostname/manager points to
webapps/manager is enough)

Manager webapp and virtual hosts

[Mikolaj Rydzewski]

Hello,

My configuration is very simple: tomcat listens on localhost with 
various apps in their contexts. Now I'd like to setup a virtual host for 
another one. Will it be possible to deploy/reload such application using 
manager webapp running on localhost? In other words: do I have to 
install separate manager webapp for each virtual host?


And the second question is: is it possible to connect apache with 
virtual host + mod_jk + tomcat with webapp in it's context? I.e.:


my1.domain.com (apache + mod_jk) ===>   tomcat.domain.com/webapp1
my2.domain.com (apache + mod_jk) ===> tomcat.domain.com/webapp2

?

Hey everyone,

I am new to this whole thing.  I just bought a domain HYPERLINK www.xxx.com
www.xxx.com and will start developing my own app/website and will deploy it
under Tomcat (The hosting company supports it).
Now my friend has a domain HYPERLINK www.yyy.com www.yyy.com registered with
yahoo which will be moved to the new company's DNS servers since yahoo
doesn't have any support for tomcat.
The question is how am I gonna host these two sites on the same tomcat
instance ? Is this done through tomcat ? Is it even possible ?
The hosting company supports having multiple domains under one main domain.

Any suggestions ? Or maybe if you know of a good hosting company that
supports tomcat, JSP/Servlets.

Re: Manager servlet to manage virtual hosts

Hi there.

Yeah, this is pretty much what I want, only the problem is:

www.myserver.com:8080/manager exists, but www.myvh_1.com:8080/ 
manager and www.myvh_2.com:8080/manager, etc. does not exist ...


For some reason the manager servlet is not avbl on my virtual hosts  
and the manager on the main host can only manage contexts in that  
host.

Virtual hosts and shared libraries

[Oleg]

I got a problem with Tomcat using a huge amount of memory on startup. Of 
course I realize that it all depends on how large are the applications. 
However, I have lets say two identical machines with Tomcat 5.5 installed. 
One Tomcat has 100 virtual hosts running the same application and takes up 
400MB of ram after it finished loading, second Tomcat has 300 identical 
applications but deployed under localhost and it uses only 200MB of ram 
after loading. Can somebody explain me what is the case here? Does it mean 
that virtual hosts load all libraries in shared directory for every host 
into memory but all application running under localhost, simply load them 
once? I am a bit lost, I need to figure something out to cut down on memory 
use, any ideas? All users are running same application, application specific 
classes are in its own application WEB-INF/classes and all libraries needed 
to run the application, like struts and hibernate and so on are in shared. 
Thank you.

There is a default webapp per host, not per Tomcat.  (However, the path
attribute must not be used unless the  entry is in server.xml,
and that is strongly discouraged these days.)  To quote from the Tomcat
server reference doc for the path attribute:

"The context path of this web application, which is matched against the
beginning of each request URI to select the appropriate web application
for processing. All of the context paths within a particular Host must
be unique. If you specify a context path of an empty string (""), you
are defining the default web application for this Host, which will
process all requests not assigned to other Contexts. The value of this
field must not be set except when statically defining a Context in
server.xml, as it will be infered from the filenames used for either the
.xml context file or the docBase."

Now that's an interesting turn of phrase: "real virtual hosts".

I believe you are only allowed to have one Context path="" because this 
defines the default webapp - where the requests go if they don't match any 

other context path.

I'm not sure how you could implement real virtual hosts on Tomcat - where 
you can link to eg "/index.html" insted of "/webappname/index.html".  Be 
nice to know.

Re: Virtual hosts with standalone tomcat 5.5.9

[Parsons Technical Services]

You can't do it that way. At least the testing. You either have to set up 
DNS to resolve both names back to the IP or put entries in your host file. 
When you do a request to the server the header holds the URL and when you 
use the localhost that is what is sent in the header. Tomcat then will use 
the first host since there is no match. And that is why www.mysite.com 
works. It is the first one listed.


Add the entries to your host file and try the actual URLs listed in the 
server.xml, then if all else is right, it will work.

Hello,

have you tried naming the war files
"ROOT.war"??
Because I think there is a special naming convention for the root

This means if you have different applications you need to deploy them
into different folders.

creating a second running instance in memory with a context path of
/sitea. I've tried a variety of different directory structures, but am
unable to deploy a war file without it correctly deploying to a / path,

Is there a best practise way of doing this? Should I be putting
context.xml declarations in the META-INF directory of my war files?

RE: Managing automatic deployment with multiple virtual hosts

That seems to have been the solution! Thanks very much. 

Is this documented anywhere in the official Tomcat documentation?

Hello,

have you tried naming the war files
"ROOT.war"??
Because I think there is a special naming convention for the root
context.
This means if you have different applications you need to deploy them
into different folders.

Question on Configuring Virtual Hosts on different ports

[Colby . Meyer]

We are attempting to configure tomcat with virtual hosts so that different 
ports represent different regions

For example 
port 80 may represent a QA region
port 90 may represent a dev region

We are using apache as the front end for Tomcat

in httpd.conf we have the following defined :

# Definition for DEVA

ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   ServerName deva 
JkMount /* ajp13
ErrorLog /opt/bluepage/deva/logs/error_log
CustomLog /opt/bluepage/deva/logs/access_log common


this should forward all requests to the Tomcat connector and hence to 
Tomcat

in server.xml we have the following defined :



 

 crossContext="false"
 debug="1" 
 reloadable="false"
 trusted="false"> 
 

crossContext="false"
 debug="1" 
 reloadable="false"
 trusted="false"> 
 

 

and in /etc/hosts we have 

127.0.0.1   localhost qaa qab qac deva devb devc 
192.168.85.6qaa qab qac deva devb devc
 
When we start tomcat and hit the URL : http://192.168.85.6:90/index.html 
we see some of the static html content that is defined in the "root" of 
the WAR file
However when trying to access any of the servlets in the WAR , for example

http://192.168.85.6:90/BluePage/Redirector?foo=usa&bar=ca&ENTER.x=15&ENTER.y=18

 The following logs in the Apache access_log for this host 

 - [08/Jun/2005:12:21:59 -0400] "GET 
/BluePage/Redirector?foo=usa&bar=ca&ENTER.x=15&ENTER.y=18 HTTP/1.1" 302 0

nothing logs in the associated tomcat log and the servlet doesn't appear 
to be getting called.

The WAR was built on the same machine as the Tomcat Server so we are using 
the same java version and the structure of the WAR was initially built on 
Websphere, so I feel that
the structure in terms of WEB-INF/classes and such is valid.

We have exhaustively experimented with permutations of server settings, 
read everything on Virtual Host configuration and the proper course of 
action escapes us.
I am thinking that this may be an issue with the application code itself, 
but I am not sure where to start looking.

Does anyone have any thoughts or pointers they may be willing to share ?

Thanks

Re: adding new virtual hosts without restart?

[delbd]

If you add virtual hosts using the tomcat admin interface and hit the commit 
button on top after all changes, you do not have to issue a bin/shutdown.sh 
and a bin/startup.sh.
However, the catalina engine is restarted and so are all webapps in it.

adding new virtual hosts without restart?

[Thomas Corte]

Hello,

I understand that it is possible to (re-)deploy new contexts/web 
applications in Tomcat 5.5.9 without a complete server restart.


I wonder whether the same might be possible for new virtual hosts, i.e. 
adding new virtual hosts/IP addresses to a running Tomcat server.
From the documentation, I get the impression that this is *not* 
possible, which means that I'd have to stop and start tomcat to do this.


Is there a way to do it without restart?

Hi Bogus,

have a look here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/engine.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html

You need to know a bit about all three to successfully set up a virtual 
host.


(1) ENGINE

As regards the Engine element, the only important thing is the 
defaultHost parameter:

"The default host name, which identifies the Host that will process 
requests directed to host names on this server, but which are not 
configured in this configuration file. This name MUST match the name  
attributes of one of the Host elements nested immediately inside."
 
"You can nest one or more Host elements inside this Engine element, each 
representing a different virtual host associated with this server. At 
least one Host  is required, and one of the nested Hosts MUST have a 
name that matches the name specified for the defaultHost attribute, 
listed above."

So, if you should later change the hostname of the default host, that 
means the name attribute of the Host element representing the default 
host, you must not forget to set the defaultHost attribute of the 
Engine element accordingly.


(2) HOST

Different to the Apache HTTP server, a virtual host is not equivalent 
with a web application in Tomcat terms. It can host several web 
applications, and so the Host element only contains the appBase 
attribute and not a docBase attribute:

"appBase: The Application Base directory for this virtual host. This is 
the pathname of a directory that may contain web applications to be 
deployed on this virtual host."


(3) CONTEXT

Concerning the Context element, you have to observe three things:

a) "You may define as many Context elements as you wish. Each such 
Context MUST have a unique context path, which is defined by the path 
attribute. In addition, you MUST define a Context with a context path 
equal to a zero-length string. This Context becomes the default  web 
application for this virtual host, and is used to process all requests 
that do not match any other Context's context path."

b) Normally, your context files will be placed here:

$CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/

So, if you should later change the hostname, that means the name 
attribute of the Host element, you must not forget to rename the 
directory of the associated context files accordingly.

c) For the web application which you want to run as ROOT application - 
http://localhost:8080/ instead of http://localhost:8080/webapp/ - need 
to have a context file called ROOT.xml:

$CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/ROOT.xml


Best wishes

Lutz

RE: tomcat and virtual hosts

[Fritz Schneider]

Bagus,

Each virtual host is a host element in server.xml. The service (e.g.
"Catalina") has connectors to the ports for incoming requests. The engine in
that service sorts out the requests for a particular virtual host based on
the name attribute of the hosts. Any which don't match go to the defaultHost
(e.g. localhost). Each host can have its own appBase as well as logs, root
context, etc.

You can drop the ... line in your installtion.

$host should be replaced by smpdev.mwhglobal.com

then your directory

webapps/smpdev.mwhglobal.com

should contain an unpacked copy of the site you're working with, including
your web.xml configuration file.


You need to create the configuration file in

conf/Catalina/smpdev.mwhglobal.com/ROOT.xml






A caveat though is I haven't tested the instructions on Windows so you may
need to modify various things to make it go.

Yours,

Pete Stevens

Virtual Hosts - additional info needed

[Matthew P Puccio]

I'm running Tomcat 5.5.9 on a Windows2000 server. I am not running Apache 
and for various reasons won't be installing it. I'm not a Tomcat 
administrator so I may sound a bit clueless.

I have tried to follow the instructions on 
http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/tomcat-vhost.html but am confused or don't 
understand.

Here's the setup that I want:
- I have the domain "smpdev.mwhglobal.com" that points at my Tomcat 
server's IP address.
- My files are in /Tomcat5.5/SMP/
- I have a Default.jsp page in /Tomcat5.5/SMP/jsp/Default.jsp. There is an 
entry in web.xml for this app for the Welcome file.
- I have a folder /Tomcat5.5/conf/Catalina/SMP with SMP.xml. That file 
contains  and my database 
connection info.
- I've tried adding a new  entry in server.xml, based on the info on 
the ex-parrot page (linked above):
 


$alias


What I don't know is what "$host" should be or "$alias" in the server.xml 
file.
I also don't know if some of my folders should actually be called 
"smpdev.mwhglobal.com" instead of "SMP".

If I hit http://smpdev.mwhglobal.com/SMP/jsp/Default.jsp I can access the 
application. However, I want http://smpdev.mwhglobal.com to go directly to 
this page.

BTW, this is all inside our network so you won't be able to hit the 
server.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Hi,

Running TC5.5 as a stand-alone.
I've been reading about the HOST element, and i see
that it can make mysite.com and www.mysite.com go to
the same place. I apologize if I put it in a
simplistic way.

But can it make "www.mysite.com" be forwarded to
"www.mysite.com/myapp"?

Many thanks in advance!

IIS Virtual Hosts and JK 1.2 - Same Contexts to different workers?

[Dalton Ames Jr]

Windows/Tomcat 5/IIS/JK 1.2 Connector 

I am using the  JK 1.2  Connector and want to connect
two IIS Web sites to different AJP ports, with the
same context.  Is there a way for workers.properties
to specify the incoming Host Header when determining
which worker to use?

For example:

http://website1/mycontext/
should go to one instance of Tomcat with AJP port
8009

http://website2/mycontext
should go to a second instance of Tomcat with  AJP
port 9009

Both Web sites are in the same IIS WWW Server

It works with Two hosts in the same Tomcat service
(thus same AJP port 8009), but I’d like to isolate
them a little more by having them run in different
Tomcat instances that I can recycle separately.

Don't put the Context elements in server.xml. Put your Host elements
there, e.g.
   
  
 
Then (assuming you're using the default Engine name) make directories
   $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/oahu
   $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/maui
   $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/kauai
In each of those put your Context files, as in

   $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/oahu/manager.xml
   
   $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/oahu/cowabunga.xml
   
which will look (minimally!) like
   
   

That's it. Restart tomcat. Done. See, wasn't that easy? :-)

Troubleshooting Virtual Hosts with Tomcat 5 standalone mode...

[Jeff Duska]

I'm trying to setup a couple of virtual hosts using Tomcat in stand
alone mode. I'm having a hell of a time to get this working correctly.
I've tried several configs, but they all fail.
I started with the goal of having a user directory for each virtual
host. For example, for the sample domain1.com the appbase would be
/home/domain/webapps.
I setup my server.xml file to have the following host settings
   


This is pretty much cut and past from Tomcat: The Definitive Guide from
Safari Online. This did not work. I would get just get a blank webpage.
I then tried to update the host file. I didn't see why I'd need to do
that since my DNS setup at Mydomain.com was working for ssh. I add
domain1.com to the line for my localhost. I restarted Tomcat. No change.
I am able to run the system on port 80 using just the localhost default
settings. I figured I just did something wrong. I switched to this
directions http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/tomcat-vhost.html
This didn't worked either. When I looked at the requests in in Safari,
it showed this as a bad request. I can telnet domain1.com 80. When I try
GET index.jsp or index,html or /. Nothing happens. No error. It just
closed the connection as if everything was working fine. I tried lynx
from the server prompt. It gives a http 400 error, I think. It flashes
by so fast I'm not sure.
The catalina.out has no errors.
I have my DNS setup via mydomain.com dns management tool. I have my A
record pointing to the address. I don't think I need to do anything else.
I'm at a loss of what to do now to troubleshoot this problem. I searched
the mail list and the website nothing has jumped out at me. So, I hoping
some kind soul might give me some pointers. What kills me is I'm sure
this is something obvious I missed or not seeing.

Re: Configuring Manager for different Virtual Hosts

[John B. Moore]

Folks,
  I got it working finally...(after several days of repeated head 
banging..) 

Following is how I got it to work (Tomcat 4.1.29)..
  1) Copy the folder 

  $CATALINA_HOME/server/webapps/manager
..to the directory that contains your web application..
Example:
 $CATALINA_HOME = /usr/local/tomcat
 ..copy folder /usr/local/tomcat/server/webapps/manager to 
/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/somesubdirectory/

  2) Copy the manager.xml found in the main webapps directory:
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/manager.xml
...to the same directory that you copied the manager folder..
  3) Edit manager.xml
 Change the "docBase" attribute to reflect the location copied to 
above..

Example:
 docBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/somesubdirectory/manager"
  4) Edit either your mod_jk.conf file or the specific copy for that 
host.   (here I keep a custom conf file for each host, with the name of 
that host.conf)  This is the same file or files that you "include" in 
the Apache httpd.conf file   (There may be other ways around this, but 
this is the way I did it..)

  a) Open the mod_jk.conf file (after Tomcat has be started at 
least once if you have AutoConfig on..) and find the localhost:/manager 
section.  Copy this entire section to the end of the JkMount commands..

  b) Paste this section into each VirtualHost setting (possibly a 
different .conf file..)

  c) Edit the Alias and Directory tags to reflect the same full 
path to the manager folder..

 5) Make sure you have setup the role "manager" in the tomcat_users.xml 
file and a user for that role. (Instructions in the Manager HowTo)

 6) Restart Tomcat
 7) Access manager via a browser at
  http://your.domainhere.com:8080/manager/html
 (I have yet to get it to load directly through Apache yet..  for my 
purposes this is fine and works for me..)

  Hope that helps someone...

Re: Configuring Manager for different Virtual Hosts

[John B. Moore]

Anto,
   Thanks for replying..  Sadly there must be something else to 
configure..  I did read all the relevant documents and the manager works 
fine for the default "webapps" context.  I added the line you suggested 
to that virtual host.. restarted everything (including Apache)  

  I then type in
  http:// /manager/html
... and Tomcat indicates that such a context does not exist..
  This, in my thinking is understandable, because I have not 
configured  a context IN tomcat (i.e. server.xml) for that Host and that 
is what I think I'm missing.. It is  just can not find any documentation 
to help me on this.. (though I remember seeing a discussion on this 
somewhere..)  I tried to pattern after the default host but because  my 
webapps are "down one more level" in the directory structure the pattern

Alias /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/someapp/../../server/webapps/manager
..does not work..  it parses it to
Alias /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/someapp/../server/webapps/manager
.. which does not exist..
  If you have a momment, please reread my original message that 
explains the configuration of my web applications..  Any ideas would be 
appreciated...

  Thanks again for taking the time to respond..
  John..

I have a single line to do it in the VirtualHost
JkMount /manager/* a9
First configure manager application as specified in the Manager how to.
There are some config steps in Tomcat if you have different

Configuring Manager for different Virtual Hosts

[John B. Moore]

I know I saw the info on this topic somewhere, but for the life of me, I 
can not relocate it.. (can not come up with the magic search strings... 
I spent hours trying different searches...)  

Task: I am trying to configure the Manager tool to manage different 
virtual hosts on a webserver  (Apache -> Tomcat 4.1.29) so that I can 
restart a single webapplication when I make changes.

I have various subdirectories under webapps that are configured as 
separate hosts and contexts

i.e. /webapps/someapp/
In that directory I have a web application and I want the setup  the 
Manager for stopping and starting this app..

Using the example for the localhost context I saw the alias
Alias /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/../server/webapps/manager
..along with all the related settings...
Since my webapp is in  /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/someapp/
I tried..
Alias /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/someapp/../../server/webapps/manager
.. along with related settings...  No joy.. it dropped the first "../" 
and still can not track to that alias directory..

So am I chasing my tail..   And/or can someone point me to that 
phantom discusson on setting up the manager for other host/context/ 
subdirectories...

Thanks...

Apache httpd and Tomcat with multiple virtual hosts

[Bernard]

Hi,

I am setting up Apache 2 with mod_jk and Tomcat 5.5 with multiple
virtual hosts.

My background is mod_jserv where I had
ApJServMount /myServletAlias /myZone
in the  sections.

Now Tomcat, I undestand, has also its own virtual hosts in server.xml,
e.g. 

Query about IIS, Tomcat and Virtual Hosts

[Michael Foggin]

Hi there,

we are creating a staging / QA environment for our websites.

We are using a Win2K server running IIS which has multiple websites 
defined (using host headers for identification against a single IP 
address), eg:

localhost
staging.website.com
staging.website2.co.uk
staging.website3.de etc etc

I have installed the latest version of Tomcat (5.5.7) and configured it 
using the jk2.0.4 connectors and for the default website this is fine; I 
can serve JSP's that I place under the {CATALINA_BASE}\webapps\ROOT 
directory structure. I know this isn't the best place to put them but I'm 
trying to take this in easy steps!

My main problem is when trying to server JSP's from the virtual, ie non 
localhost, sites defined in IIS.

In IIS I have added the isapi_redirector2.dll and created the 'jakarta' 
virtual directory so I'm pretty certain that I'm missing a trick somewhere 
on the Tomcat configuration side but I'm not sure where.

I have tried editing the workers2.properties file in the conf directory 
with the following entry:

[uri:staging.website2.co.uk/*.jsp]
info= Attempt to map requests for all JSP pages on virtual server to 
Tomcat.
context=/staging_website2_co_uk

The context directory exist under webapps and was created by cutting, 
pasting and renaming the jsp-examples directory. Again, far from ideal but 
I'm just trying to get up to speed!

This hasn't worked as expected in that staging.website2.co.uk/test.jsp 
returns a 404 whilst localhost/staging_website_co_uk/test.jsp returns the 
page properly.

Attentions then turned to the server.xml file where I've really got a bit 
lost.

Should I be creating staging.whatever as an engine or a host? 
Additionally, should I be adding a new directory under \conf\catalina for 
each of the new sites, similar to the localhost directory? 

I appreciate that this is a number of questions but I've tried all the 
things that seem 'obvious' to me but I'm now flailing about aimlessly and 
could do with Some Help :)

Re: Running lots of virtual hosts on tomcat

[Peter Rossbach]

Hello,
that not really correct - see the german centaurus-platform 
http:/centaurus.sf.net/. We have build a little
tool hostcreator do to create host at runtime. You can build a new host 
with a template at runtime. Wait a week
than we release the 1.0beta6 with a integrated management application. 
Currently we  build the  Centaurus-Platform
with Tomcat 5.0.27 with some small modifcations.

One bad point:  We have wrote the complete documentation at german 
language. :-)  Sorry

Removing is a really problem. The internal JMX Api support a remove Host 
at memory but the config still exists at server.xml.
After restart your server the host is also restarted.
We hack the server.xml with a little some XSLT things, but we don't 
delete directories or files.

I hope we can discuss and implement a better way for tomcat 5.5. :-)
regards
Peter

Re: Running lots of virtual hosts on tomcat

[Ronald Klop]

RJ,
I think with a filter we can do our own version of mod_vhost.
But for reloading the classes/jsps it needs two instances of Tomcat (maybe on 
the same machine) with a loadbalancer to update one without interrupting the 
user.
Or is the compiler build into Tomcat 5.5 fast enough (and without memory leaks 
enough) to run it on a production machine.

Hey, cool, that worked great.  Is there actually any documentation for the 
workers2.properties file?  I looked around and couldn't find anything really 
useful...

Re: Ugh. IIS + Tomcat + multiple virtual hosts

Are you using JK or JK2 as the redirector in IIS? You might want to
indicate what version of IIS as some people have reported trouble using
JK in IIS 6 unless they run in IIS 5 isolation mode. 
 
I use JK2 with multiple virtual hosts, and each host is handled by a
different worker. I'm sure JK can do this also. Here's a JK2 example
with two different workers handling two different virtual hosts: 
 
[channel.socket:web1:8010] 
port=8010 
host=web1.bvu.edu 
 
[ajp13:web1:8010] 
channel=channel.socket:web1:8010

worker=ajp13:web1:8010 
 
[channel.socket:web2:8009] 
port=8009 
host=web2.bvu.edu 
 
[ajp13:web2:8009]

Configuration: jk 1.2 apache 1.3 workers and virtual hosts

[Michael Kastner]

Hello,
since the documentation is not explicit about this, maybe someone on 
this list can help me.

configuration:
linux
tomcat 5.0
jk 1.2
apache 1.3
I have several virtual hosts running on my system. Does that mean that I 
have to create a separate worker for each virtual host?

e.g.
worker.list=virtHost1,virtHost2,virtHost3
# host1
worker.virtHost1.type=ajp13
worker.virtHost1.host=www.virtHost1.com
worker.virtHost1.port=8009
# host2
worker.virtHost2.type=ajp13
worker.virtHost2.host=www.virtHost2.com
worker.virtHost2.port=8009
# host3
worker.virtHost3.type=ajp13
worker.virtHost3.host=www.virtHost3.com
worker.virtHost3.port=8009
Sorry, I wouldn't ask that that question if I had found any 
documentation on virtual hosts and jk 1.2

Any help or hint is very much appreciated

Tomcat 5, jk2, Apache 2 and mixed name/IP virtual hosts

[Troy Davis]

Hello,
I've got a Tomcat 5 / Apache 2 / jk2 server which has been serving 
several different virtual hosts which share a common IP address. I now 
need to implement my first SSL-protected website on this machine, and I 
am working under the assumption that this site must have a dedicated IP 
address in order for SSL to work. First of all, is this assumption 
correct?

But I haven't gotten to the part of setting up the SSL connector yet, 
I'm struggling with the IP address routing at the moment. Assuming that 
I do indeed need to have this site on a separate IP, how do I configure 
Apache, jk2 and Tomcat to work with the additional IP address without 
interrupting the existing name-based virtual hosts? Relevant sections 
of my configuration are below. name-based-client1.com and 
name-based-client2.com are working as desired already, but 
IP-ssl-client.com is not responding to requests.

One thing that confuses me: I found instructions on how to setup Tomcat 
to work with another IP by creating another Connector in server.xml, 
but if I setup a new Connector, how can jk2 route the requests from 
Apache, rather than Tomcat handling it entirely? Do I need to modify 
workers2.properties instead and leave server.xml as is? It seems like 
this approach would lead to a standalone Tomcat intercepting requests 
to that IP, but I definitely need Apache to handle the requests before 
redirecting JSP requests to Tomcat.

TIA,
Troy

RE: Virtual Hosts and SSL

[Benson Margulies]

Some posters misunderstand virtual hosts.

The first step in creating a virtual host is to assign it a unique IP
address and host name. 

The second step is to configuring the machine's ethernet adapter to have
several IP addresses. This is done on Unix/Linux by creating additional
devices with the : syntax and on Windows by adding them to the config
dialog box.

The third step is to configure the web server to know about all this.

This should absolutely work.
Have 2 different engnies, each with it's own https-connector.
Bind these https-connectors to different IPs using it's "address" parameter.

If this does not work, submit a bug.

Correct.  This is (or at least, should be) true all around: the SSL
negotiation takes place at a lower protocol level than the HTTP request
that specifies which virtual host the client wants to see.  Yet, it's
during the negotiation phase that client software compares the requested
hostname to the CN value of the cert.

 I'm not sure what you mean by "virtual host".  AFAIK there are
generally two uses of the phrase.  

 The first is to refer to a single web server answering to more
than one domain name _without_ using one IP address per domain name.

 The second is to offer a customer seemingly full access to a
server to run their website, without having one separate physical box
per customer.  Some solutions go all the way and try to make the
customer feel like they have root on the box.  Some solutions just provide
the customer a greater-than-end-user level of access to tweaking the
configuration of their webserver, cgi scripts and database.


 If you're asking the first, I don't know if my recent learning
experience with Apache Virtual hosting will be relevant, but it may be
give you some insight into what you're doing.  It may only go for
tomcat used in an apache/modjk/tomcat setup.  Or it may not be at all
relevant to tomcat, whether stand-alone or with apache.

 I recently re-installed my apache server, and in the process set
up apache virtual hosting.  I learned that it's almost impossible to
set up SSL with virtual hosts with apache, you need to use IP-based
hosting if you want to serve multiple domains from one apache
installation via SSL, without any hitches.

 That said, if all you really care about is encrypting the
connection, non-IP based (i.e. virtual) multiple domain hosting is
still tolerable.

 Basically the SSL cert that's served by the server will match the
default virtual host (the first one defined in the configuration).
Requests to the other domains on the SSL port will hit the same SSL
server and get served the SSL cert for the default domain.  The
browser will squawk because the Cert doesn't match the domain.  

 If you're *really* security-conscious, this is a problem, since
there's an opportunity for a man-in-the-middle attack.  Somebody could
slip the browser a bogus Cert and proxy requests to your server,
eavesdropping on them all the while.  But if you're just providing
some encrypted web-access to an application, you may not mind.

 Security is all about trade-offs.

It might be awkward, but if you can't use url-rewriting this might also
be the next best option.

Use url-rewriting.  To enable it, set cookies="false" on your Context
declarations.

Portability is tough to achieve, but great once achieved.  Shortcuts and
container-specific goodies end up costing more in the long term, as this
example shows.

Session-cookie problems with several virtual hosts

[Martin Morawetz]

We have 3 different virtual hosts, which are subdomains
of our main domain.
We need access to the session from all virtual hosts.
We use cookie-sessions, at the moment url-rewriting isn't a
possible alternative.
The problem is, that the browser doesn't send the cookie back
to a subdomain, if the cookie was sent from one of the two
others.
Till now we solved the problem by specifying the domain globally
in the resin.conf . Yes we used Resin as Servlet-Engine and Resin 
supports a config-tag  which solved our problem
perfectly. As far as i know Tomcat doesn't support something
like that.

As I don't have access to the session-cookie,
i thought in creating a cookie with the current session-id and the
proper domain set for every virtual host, but that seems to me
a little bit awkward.
Is it possible to specify a general cookie-domain globally for a virtual 
host?

Is there a way to manipulate the session-cookie (set the domain)?
What is supposed as best practise to get access to one session from
different subdomains?
Any help/comment is greatly appreciated.

RE: Virtual Hosts and useCanonical

[Mike Curwen]

Those books are making reference to getting the client's IP/hostname.  And
that would be controlled through the connector attribute 'enableLookups'. 

This is about getting the Server's hostname.

Re: Virtual Hosts and useCanonical

[agidden]

There is a setting somewhere in Tomcat (versions up to 4.1.X at least)
where you enable/disable reverse DNS.
Most of the time you want this off, but I think in your case you may need it
turned on.
I think the swtich is in the Tomcat server.xml, and it relates to the connector you 
are using. Its something like 'enableLookups'.
While this sounds odd, two books I have state you need this to get names
and not IP addresses. Also, the books mention using request.getRemoteHost(), and that 
it is effected by the settings in server.xml

Hope it helps,
Al G
