Greetings Users,
is it possible to use two completely separate virtual hosts
with tomcat ?
What I want to do is using two virtual hosts on the same box.
One for real web serving and one for development.
My problems so far are:
1. Class loading -
Can I configure tomcat in a way that classes don't
interfere between virtual hosts ?
2. Context scope -
Can I use JkMount with a single path for all
applications ?
3. Host aliases
Can I do an 'AutoWebApp' for an 'Alias' and
a full host name at the same time ?
Please note, that:
The application name is 'jRolodex', but I used the 'numguess.jsp'
example for testing.
'www' is the web host and
'javadex' is the development host.
A 'build.sh all' copies the application files to host 'javadex'
i.e. the 'docBase' directory of virtual host
'javadex.tiade-voboe.de'.
A 'build.sh dist' produces a 'jRolodex.war' and a 'jRoldex.jar'
in the 'docBase' directory of host 'www.tiade-voboe.de'.
Before I plunge into the details, please look at the partial
config files, stack and SW version at the end of this mail.
Now the gory details:
ad 1. When i change some code in the application and afterwards do a
'build.sh all' for application 'jRolodex' without doing a
'build.sh dist', the first virtual server I hit works fine!
No matter wether it is 'www' or 'javadex'.
The second server always gets an 'Error 500' (see error stack at
end of mail).
It seems to me, that tomcat does not load the appropriate class
definitions.
ad 2. I tried to use '/wapps' as the context path (with and without a
'prefix' in 'AutoWebApp') because I wanted something like
'JkMount /wapps' in 'httpd.conf'. It didn't work. So I have
to mount every application explicitly.
ad 3. I tried to use the 'Alias' definition in 'AutoWebApp'. I.e.:
<AutoWebApp dir="/usr/local/httpd/webapps/javadex"
prefix="/wapps"
host="javadex" />
It worked fine but it didn't work for 'javadex.tiade-voboe.de' (and
vice versa).
