The application server has a plugin for apache and that has been installed in the apache . Apache is able to talk to the weblogic using http but not using https. as i mentioned earlier, i have not hosted any application files in the apache. the apache should act to proxy/pass all the requests to weblogic, where the application jar/war file is hosted.
I did specify a ProxyPass parameter like the following. ProxyPass / http://<ipaddress>/OPSWeb/neo ProxyPass / http://<ipaddress> But both of them did not work.
