Yes, all requests that come into Apache get redirected to Engine via AJP
protocol by default. In future, we're planning to do the redirect only for
specific URLs like '/engine/'.
There are (at least) two ways you can serve your custom content for your UI
plugin:
1, use built-in Engine servlet for serving static plugin resources
e.g. '/webadmin/webadmin/plugin//start.html' would serve
'/usr/share/ovirt-engine/ui-plugins//start.html'
see http://www.ovirt.org/Features/UIPlugins#UI_plugin_cheat_sheet for more
details
2, modify Apache configuration to serve your custom content
e.g. use ProxyPass directive in ovirt-engine.conf that takes effect before
the AJP redirect takes effect
The first way is highly recommended since it allows your plugin to be packaged
and distributed for use with Engine, with following file structure:
- /usr/share/ovirt-engine/ui-plugins/.json -> plugin descriptor
- /usr/share/ovirt-engine/ui-plugins/-files/start.html -> plugin
host page
- /usr/share/ovirt-engine/ui-plugins/-files/* -> other static
plugin resources (if necessary)
- /etc/ovirt-engine/ui-plugins/-config.json -> plugin user
configuration (optional, not part of plugin distribution package)
Hope this helps,
Vojtech

Subject: HTML file display in Custom Tab
Hi ,
I have added a custom Tab to WebAdmin portal and want to display a html file in
this Custom tab.
I find that there is usage of “ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8702/” within
/etc/httpd/conf.d” ,which redirects whatever request which
comes to server back to the engine-service which listens to port 8702.
This prevents me from showing a html file placed in /var/www/html,which is run
on Apache server.
Every request is reverted back to oVirt main page.
How do I succeed to display html file then?
Is there a way to bypass this proxy whenever required?
Thanks and Regards
Satheesh J
