howto configure mod_proxy for apache2, jetty
- by Kaustubh P
Hello,
This is how I have setup my environment, atm. An apache2 instance on port 80. Jetty instance on the same server, on port 8090.
Use-Case:
When I visit foo.com, I should see the webapp, which is hosted on jetty, port 8090.
If I put foo.com/blog, I should see the wordpress blog, which is hosted on apache. (I read howtos on the web, and installed it using AMP.)
Below are my various configuration files:
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/proxy.conf:
ProxyPass / http://foo.com:8090/ << this is the jetty server
ProxyPass /blog http://foo.com/blog
ProxyRequests On
ProxyVia On
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyStatus On
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf:
LoadModule proxy_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_balancer_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_balancer.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
I have not created any other files, in sites-available or sites-enabled.
Current situation:
If I goto foo.com, I see the webapp.
If I goto foo.com/blog, I see a
HTTP ERROR 404
Problem accessing /errors/404.html.
Reason:
NOT_FOUND
powered by jetty://
If I comment out the first ProxyPass line, then on foo.com, I only see the homepage, without CSS applied, ie, only text..
.. and going to foo.com/blog gives me a this error:
The proxy server received an invalid
response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the
request GET /blog.
Reason: Error reading from remote
server
I also cannot access /phpmyadmin, giving the same 404 NOT_FOUND error as above.
I am running Debian squeeze on an Amazon EC2 Instance.
Question: Where am I going wrong? What changes should I make in the proxy.conf (or another conf files) to be able to visit the blog?
