Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

All,

We have a store set-up on Ofbiz, lets say
www.abc.com/ecommerce/control/main. As a next step we are looking at
launching another store targetted at a sub-vertical within the abc space
with a different view/catalog running of the same instance. The new store
should be accessible @ www.def.abc.com/defecommerce/control/main. The
following are the steps we followed:

a) Created a new Store
b) Created a new website and associated the store created in step a with
this site.
c) Replicated the ecommerce webapp and renamed it as defecommerce.
d) Altered the ofbiz-component.xml and added the following entry:

<webapp name="defecommerce"
title="Def ECommerce"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/defecommerce"
mount-point="/defecommerce"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="www.def.abc.com"/>
</webapp>

e) Edited the web.xml under WEB-INF, to point to the new website id.
f) On restarting the ofbiz instance, while both the ecommerce instances can
be accessed, the static resources served out of the images component, are
not being served for the defecommerce webapp. Access logs show that all
static resource fetch requests have received http 400 error code response.
Would this means that all static resources need to be served out of the same
webapp, defecommerce ?

TIA,
ravish

Re: Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

you need to change the webapp configuratino for the
images component to have virtual hosts for def.abc.com
as well as abc.com (as well as localhost,etc) I'm
sure there's a more elegant way of doing it so that
you don't have to explicitly list every host, but this
should get your current setup going.

Hi,
We too had a similar Problem, One of the Hack or a work arround we found was
to define one more images Instance of images by adding

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="hostname"/>
</webapp>
But we r creating two instances of images.

RE: Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

Chris/Venkata,

Here is the set-up we attempted based on your suggestions:

Based on Venkata's suggestion
-----------------------------

Images component - ofbiz-component.xml

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
</webapp>

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="www.def.abc.com"/>
</webapp>

Ecommerce component - ofbiz-component.xml

<webapp name="ecommerce"
title="ECommerce"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/ecommerce"
mount-point="/ecommerce"
app-bar-display="false">
</webapp>

<webapp name="nqcommerce"
title="Nasdaq ECommerce"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/nqcommerce"
mount-point="/nqcommerce"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="def.abc.com"/>
</webapp>

Result:

http://localhost:8080/ecommerce/control/main - works fine with all static
resources being accessed

http://def.abc.com/ecommerce/control/main - returns 400 bad request,
response code.

Based on Chris's suggestion
---------------------------

Images component - ofbiz-component.xml

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="abc.def.com"/>
<virtual-host host-name="localhost"/>
</webapp>

Ecommerce component - ofbiz-component.xml

<webapp name="ecommerce"
title="ECommerce"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/ecommerce"
mount-point="/ecommerce"
app-bar-display="false">
</webapp>

<webapp name="nqcommerce"
title="Nasdaq ECommerce"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/nqcommerce"
mount-point="/nqcommerce"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="abc.def.com"/>
</webapp>

Result:

http://localhost:8080/ecommerce/control/main - returns 400 bad request,
response code

http://def.abc.com:8080/nqcommerce/control/main - returns 400 bad request,
response code

It would seem like, virtual-host is mapped to a single webapp. i.e. the
relationship is one-to-one. Are there anyother steps I can try out ?

thank you,
ravish

Do you actually have files located at

RE: Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

Chris,

With the modification (3 sets attempted to arrive @ some conclusions below),

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="abc.com"/>
<virtual-host host-name="def.abc.com"/>
<virtual-host host-name="localhost"/>
</webapp>

Result:

http://def.abc.com:8080/nqcommerce/control/main - HTTP 400 bad request

http://abc.com:8080/ecommerce/control/main - HTTP 400 bad request

On attempting image accesses only:

http://localhost:8080/images/maincss.css - Able to access the css

http://def.abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

http://abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

After re-ordering the webapp as follows,

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="def.abc.com"/>
<virtual-host host-name="localhost"/>
<virtual-host host-name="abc.com"/>
</webapp>

http://abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - able to access the css

http://def.abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

http://localhost:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

After another set of changes:

<webapp name="images"
title="Images"
server="default-server"
location="webapp/images"
mount-point="/images"
app-bar-display="false">
<virtual-host host-name="localhost"/>
<virtual-host host-name="abc.com"/>
<virtual-host host-name="def.abc.com"/>
</webapp>

http://def.abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - able to access the css

http://localhost:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

http://abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - HTTP 400 bad request

http://def.abc.com:8080/nqcommerce/control/main - HTTP 400 bad request

From the above am tending towards the conclusions that:

a) Multiple virtual-hosts even though can be specified to a webapp, the
webapp is bound to the last specified virtual-host.

b) Virtual hosts are unique to a webapp, since images component is loaded
before ecommerce, the virtual host is taken.

cheers,
ravish

RE: Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

Phani,

http://abc.com:8080/ecommerce - HTTP 400 bad request

http://def.abc.com:8080/nqcommerce - HTTP 400 bad request

http://abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - works !!!

http://def.abc.com:8080/images/maincss.css - works !!!

http://localhost:8080/nqcommerce - HTTP 404 response code

http://localhost:8080/ecommerce - HTTP 404 response code

So this did not work either. I am increasingly sure of the following:

a) Images component is loaded before the ecommerce component, therefore the
two unqiue virtual-hosts, abc.com and def.abc.com are taken.

b) Both the webapps under ecommerce component are not bound to the specified
ecommerce component.

Thank you,
ravish

RE: Multiple webapps on virtual hosts

In reply to this post by cjhowe

Chris/Phani,

We have finally decided to go ahead with multiple ecommerce webapp approach.
But for now, we are not mapping the webapp to a virtual-host as this has not
worked out at all. TO summarize the problem we faced, on mapping the new
webapp, nqcommerce with the virtual host, def.abc.com, though the url
http://def.abc.com/nqcommerce/control/main was accessible, the resources
mapped under images webapp, werent accessible.

Approaches tried included adding virtual-host mappings (def.abc.com,
localhost, abc.com) to the images webapp, replicating images instance etc,
mapping ecommerce webapp to abc.com while nqcommerce was mapped to
def.abc.com.

Thank you for all the help,

cheers,
ravish
