mod-jk2 multi-site config

[Daniel Kunkel]

Hi

I'm a bit confused trying to get multiple sites up and running using
mod_jk2 and not the reasonably well documented mod_jk.  

Does anyone have this working who can share their configuration files?

Thanks

Well I was confused a first why you were looking at mod_jk2 since *I* thought it
had been depreciated since 2003. On the other hand, since Apache 2.2 is
production quality, you may want to start googling on mod_proxy_ajp, since it
appears to be the way of the future.

Apache 2.2, FC5, mod_proxy and 'Where is mod_jk2'?

Apache 2.2 introduces a mod_proxy_ajp module.  It is available in some newer
distros, e.g. FC5.  This module pretty much deprecates the need for mod_jk2.
Instead of having the Location tags with mod_jk2 in Apache you would put a
directive like this inside your VirtualHost definition:

ProxyPass /tomcat ajp://127.0.0.1:8009

This will forward all requests to http://yourip/tomcat to tomcat's ROOT webapp.
Or you could use:

ProxyPass /tomcat ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/jsp-examples

On the otherhand setting up mod_jk2 shouldn't be that much different from the
instructions I gave on the old wiki site...

Thanks Walter

That's great news...  Hopefully Apache 2.2 will come standard in the new
Redhat/Centos 5 which should be out later this year.

I guess it brings up one other question I've wondered about...  running
multiple OFBiz instances each in their own virtual machine, and tied to
their own ip address.

I'm of course assuming that 127.0.0.1 will reflect back to each vm
independently, but that's probably true.

Has anyone tried this?

Meanwhile, upgrading to apache 2.2 is not an option, so if someone does
have a current version of config files for running multiple instances of
OFBiz, I'd appreciate the chance to see how you got it working.

Thanks

Daniel

In regards to the virtual machines, that is correct
and is essentially the basis for Amazon's EC2 service.
