WebSite and webapp

[Nicolas Malin-2]

Hello,

For a customer site, I improved the code of RequestHandler.makeLink to manage a web site with an apache httpd at reverse proxy that force all request to use a specific webapp

Example :

myEcommerce.mydomaine.com redirect all to ofbiz.privatedomaine/ecommerce

Natively, all works fine with some parameters on web.xml and controller.xml but each link return are setted like that myEcommerce.mydomaine.com/ecommerce, called by apache httpd to ofbiz by ofbiz.privatedomaine/ecommerce/ecommerce and traducted by ofbiz by ERROR ecommerce request-map not found ;)

To solve the situation, I extended WebSite entity with attribute webappPath, init to / for websiteId ecommerce ofbiz instance and /ecommerce for other websiteId liked to other ofbiz instance (dev, back) without apache httpd with limited reverse-proxy.

It's work this 2 months without issues and I will interest to sharing it because I'm sure it exist an other way to solve and it's pleasure to compare each, and if not, I can contribute it on trunk :)

Hi Nicolas,

thanks for sharing!

We never had to extend the WebSite entity to implement Apache
Webserer/OFBiz Tomcat connections, but I'm not sure if I fully
understand your setting and the problem you have solved.

Are the webserver myEcommerce.mydomaine.com and OFBiz
ofbiz.privatedomaine/ecommerce on the same server?

Regards,

Michael
