Re: setting up tomcat/JBOSS with apache

2004-12-18 Thread Laconia Data Systems
If you want to configure your webapp from within Apache HTTPServer I would
look at ProxyPass
e.g.
#Include in Proxy parameters to TOMCAT
#ProxyPass /myapp  http://localhost:8081/myapp
ProxyPass  /InvoiceEntry http://localhost:8081/InvoiceEntry
#ProxyPassReverse  /myapp  http://localhost:8081/myapp
ProxyPassReverse   /InvoiceEntry http://localhost:8081/InvoiceEntry

Re: setting up tomcat/JBOSS with apache

2004-12-16 Thread B Wiley
Hello Wendy, tomcat sits inside jboss and handles the jsps and servlets. I 
guess this could just be a tomcat/apache question.

The reason I'm asking is because I know for a fact when you use RESIN 
(another j2ee container) . You can have your jsps and servlets sitting 
ANYWHERE on the server, like in the same place your static content is and 
setup apache to send those requests to resin and setup resin to listen for 
them ANYWHERE.

But when I use JBOSS with tomcat I have to have my jsp's and servlets 
sitting in the webapps folder specifically and map to them there.

Okay let me rephrase everything. I have a file in my 
/var/www/htdocs/index.jsp and I want tomcat to see it there directly not in 
webapps under tomcat. I don't want the index.jsp in webapps/root/index.jsp 
then map it to apache2 with mod_jk - I don't think it can be done by just 
adding a handler to httpd.conf...

Thanks for giving this some thought, I'm probably in the wrong mailing list 
and not making any sense
thanks

No, they don't.  For example the 'manager' webapp that ships with Tomcat
does not live under 'webapps'.

Seems like it's more trouble than it's worth, to me.  But if you can come up
with URL patterns that need to be handed off to Tomcat, plus convince Apache
not to serve anything under WEB-INF directly, then I'm sure you could get it
to work.
What problem are you trying to solve by doing this?  (And what does it have
to do with JBOSS?  I skipped it initially because I don't use JBOSS, but
your question only seems to deal with Tomcat/Apache/JK configuration.)

Hello, I'm confused on something basic. I understand how to set up mod_jk2 
and configure an app something like http://localhost/myApp/test.jsp such 
that the app myApp is sitting in the java container but can I have myApp 
sitting on apache i.e. /var/www/htdocs/myApp and configure a handler in 
httpd.conf that just forwards .jsp,servlets to the java container? All I 
see online and in every example is how mod_Jk helps you knock out the 
:8080 but the apps have to be sitting in webapps.

The reason I'm asking is I was hosting a site on a resin server and that 
server seems to have the setup I was describing, you can keep your apps on 
apache and just configure the http.conf.

Thanks for anything, correct me please if I'm confused , i sure am confused
