Hey, Tomcat does support alias! take a look at the Host element:). http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/host.html
Can you use apache mod_alias directive instead of the mod_proxy directive? -Yan -----Original Message----- From: Peter Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 2:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: JK2 Connections from Apache2 URL Rewriting I have been reading through http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/ and other sources via google trying to work out the best way of mapping live URLs to specific webapps. e.g. Map www.mydomain.com/myshortcut -> www.domain.com/mywebapp/subpath/url My environment is Apache2 mod_jk2 and Tomcat 5. So far I have implemented it using mod_proxy in apache as RewriteRule ^/myshortcut(.*) http://www.domain.com/mywebapp/subpath/url$1 [P] However I don't feel that this a clean solution. Does Tomcat5 or JK2 support some form of URI mapping / aliasing? e.g. Resin has an alias directive.
