[users@httpd] loadbalancing apache/tomcat
Hello List, following situation: i have 1 apache which is connected by mod_jk to multiple tomcat servers. Now it seems to get necessary that i also need to balance the apache-applications. What is best practice in my case? I think about nginx in first line which is connected to apache-servers and tomcatservers as backends. in nginx-conf i should be able to devide requests to adequate servers, mod_jk is not needed any more because nginx is connected directly to tomcats. is this a well setup or should be putted into practice in an other way?

[users@httpd] http 1.1 authorization header is sent to every resource under a given domain
Hi All, I have a problem and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I am encountering a situation whereby an HTTP 1.1 authorization header is sent to every resource under a given domain even though the initial 401 Authentication response by which the authorization information is requested contains a realm associated with a specific resource on the server. I understand from the HTTP 1.1 spec that a browser can pre-emptively send the Authorization header to a resource for which it already has authenticated. 'A client MAY preemptively send the corresponding Authorization header with requests for resources in that space without receipt of another challenge from the server.' http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2617.txt However, it would appear the browser is pre-empting every resource under the domain with the Authorization header. I have experienced this behaviour for the domain and resources in question whilst using Opera 11.1, IE[7,8], Firefox 3.x which leaves me feeling confident (although not 100%) this is not a browser bug. It is worth mentioning that the server presents the resource associated with the realm in question as virtual managed by the 'Alias' directive under Apache 2.0 thus for protected resource '/x' the apache configuration is: Alias /x /absolute/linux/filesystem/path Directory /absolute/linux/filesystem/path ... AuthName y AuthType Basic ... /Directory I have one completely unsupported theory where the issue is related to the fact that '/x' is presented by apache as a virtual resource. I wonder if somehow this ends up mapping the realm to '/' instead of '/x'. I draw this conclusion from the fact that the browser is pre-empting the Authorization header to every resource. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction as it's likely I have something incorrectly configured in my setup. In the interests of brevity I have omitted certain information (e.g. module versions et al) if required please ask and I will be more than happy to provide. Thanks for reading. Chris

Re: [users@httpd] Need information about using Apache....
Can I use Apache instead of Drools? Like as a rules execution engine that is able to accept the request, evaluate a set of ops defined rules and execute various responses. Mod_proxy and mod_proxybalancer does the load balancing.Is there anything can be done where each instance can hve own functionality like one instance may be tracking the IP, another instance may be tracking by GUID or Screenname, and yet another may be tracking by some Signature ? Should I follow the worker model where each process launches threads and threads have the logic ? Many thanks in advance. -A On Thu, Mar 24, 2011 at 11:38 PM, Simone Caruso i...@simonecaruso.comwrote: We would like to use Apache as a routing layer that accepts both structured documents (XML docs) also some other predefined data blocks in addition to key/value paris via http and then routes those transactions based on a key available in the request such that the required keys and sub keys are all routed to the same rules instance - this will require the original request to be broadcast to multiple instances of the rules engine ( for example, one instance may be tracking the IP, another instance may be tracking by GUID or Screenname, and yet another may be tracking by some Signature.)

Re: [users@httpd] Re: Apachie to collect URL variables
While I realize that this is a CGI exercise I really was interestd in what was thought about Apache this way. I want to use URLs with embedded variables to an Apache server that will process(CGI) the data in the variables, basically I am stuffing them into mysql. I do not want to send back a page, I simply want the user to click a URL in a HTML email and poof data sent to the web server the user never sees a web page.

[users@httpd] Apache/WebDev virtual hosting not working correctly
Hi, I have been using Apache for a long time, but it isn't clear to me how to configure virtual hosting with WebDev. I wanted to make it clear that I am dealing with Webdev from PC Soft and not Webdav. The major problem I have with WebDev is there is no documentation that I can find on how to setup virtual hosting. I have contacted PC Soft and they said that it is not included in their documentation. So, I emailed them and asked and they said they couldn't help me. In the mean time I have been googling, but I found nothing on virtual hosting for Apache/WebDev. I then searched the archive of the Apache mailing, thinking someone would have had to ask something about it, but I can't find anything relevant to this in the archive. After all of that I could not find anything on WebDev virtual hosting. This is the first time that I have used Apache on Windows 2008. I did the install of Apache and it worked right out of the box. I uncommented only 2 lines in the default httpd.conf file so that it would do virtual hosting and would use the vhost-httpd.conf file. I installed WebDev and uploaded 2 sites through the WebDev application and this is what it added to my Apache config: ScriptAlias /WD110AWP/ C:/WebDev15/AWP/ Directory C:/WebDev15/AWP/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory AddType application/WebDev15-awp .awp Action application/WebDev15-awp /WD150AWP/WD150Awp.exe virtual AddType application/WebDev15-awws .awws Action application/WebDev15-awws /WD150AWP/WD150Awp.exe virtual ScriptAlias /WD120AWP/ C:/WebDev15/AWP/ ScriptAlias /WD140AWP/ C:/WebDev15/AWP/ ScriptAlias /WD150AWP/ C:/WebDev15/AWP/ Alias /WDADMINWEB150_WEB/ C:/WebDev15/WDADMINWEB/WDADMINWEB150_WEB/ Directory C:/WebDev15/WDADMINWEB/WDADMINWEB150_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files WDADMINWEB150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Files WDAdminWeb150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Alias /WDADMINHF150_WEB/ C:/WebDev15/WDADMINHF/WDADMINHF150_WEB/ Directory C:/WebDev15/WDADMINHF/WDADMINHF150_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files WDADMINHF150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Files WDAdminHF150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Alias /SAASADMINWEB150_WEB/ C:/WebDev15/WDSAAS/SaaSAdminWeb150/ SAASADMINWEB150_WEB/ Directory C:/WebDev15/WDSAAS/SaaSAdminWeb150/SAASADMINWEB150_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files SAASADMINWEB150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Files SaaSAdminWeb150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Alias /SAASWEBSERVICE150_WEB/ C:/WebDev15/WDSAAS/SaaSWebservice150/ SAASWEBSERVICE150_WEB/ Directory C:/WebDev15/WDSAAS/SaaSWebservice150/SAASWEBSERVICE150_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files SAASWEBSERVICE150 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp /Files Alias /SITE1_WEB/ C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE/SITE1_WEB/ Directory C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE1/SITE1_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files SITE1 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp Allow from all /Files Alias /SITE2_WEB/ C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE2/SITE2_WEB/ Directory C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE2/SITE2_WEB/ Order allow,deny Allow from all /Directory Files SITE2 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp Allow from all /Files I then edited the httpd-vhost.conf file to look like this: NameVirtualHost *:80 VirtualHost *:80 DocumentRoot C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE1/SITE1_WEB ServerName www.site1.com ServerAlias site1.com site1.com Files SITE1 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp Allow from all /Files /VirtualHost VirtualHost *:80 DocumentRoot C:/Clients/WEBDEV15/Sites/SITE2/SITE2_WEB ServerName www.site2.com ServerAlias site2.com *.site2.com Files SITE2 ForceType application/WebDev15-awp Allow from all /Files /VirtualHost With http://site1.com/ it doesn't seem to run through the WebDev Application server, but it works correctly with 192.168.1.100/site1/. This is much more complex than any virtual hosting I have ever done before. In fact, I am not sure if I even have the correct DocumentRoot. Honestly, if I could have only found an example of what this type of virtual hosting should look like, then I think I would have everything working on this server. Could someone please give me a hint as to what is wrong with my virtual host config or point me to some relevant documentation. Sincerely, Al
Re: [users@httpd] Re: Apachie to collect URL variables
Again, nothing to do with apache but with the way you submit the request. Submit with AJAX so you don't refresh the page. For this question you are better of asking on some programing forum not apache mailing list.
