Apache Virtual Hosting and WLS 6.0 Apache plug-in

We have a client that uses Apache and virtual hosting. We also have a
single webapp that serves these virtual hosts/domains.
Therefore, all of the served virtual hosts/domain has the same webapp
directory structure ( e.g.: index.jsp, advert.jsp, css/ )
For the above to work, we are thinking of getting the requested virtual
hostname ( supposedly part of the HTTP header sent by the browser as the
"Host:" parameter ) to figure out how the page will be displayed ... Does
the Apache plug-in send this information to WLS?

Apache plugin will forward the "Host" header to wls.
BTW, HTTP1.0 client will not send the HOST header if I recalled properly since
HOST header is not part of HTTP1.0 spec.

Apache, name based virtual hosts and multiple servers.

Hi,
Ive been playing with Apache and name-based virtual hosts for a while now, but, ive been doing it with one single server... now i have the need to forward a name-based request to another server inside the intranet (wich doesnt have a public IP, but a private)...
Something like this:
internet -----> Webserver (name based vhosts) ----> intranet-webserver
Where "webserver" has several domains resolved via name based virtual hosting, and one of those needs to be redirected (or forwarded) to another server on the LAN.
Any ideas on how to do this? i tryed searching the web, but i dont know under which keywords, so i always end on single server virtual hosting help sites.
thanks in advance!

you need to define a virtual server for it..but inside that definition.. define a proxy.
Then the middle webserver, will actually handle the request to the intranet server, on behalf of the internet client..and then pass the traffic to the internet client.
this looks like a reasonable example..

Apache Virtual Hosts and Weblogic 5.1SP6

Running:

Hello, I've been reading through the newsgroups and saw alot of information on
setting up apache and weblogic to handle virtual hosts, but am still having problems

The essential guide to DW cs4... by D. Powers: when from wamp to xampp+virtual host and having problems :(

Following the book in chapter 2 I think Ivé followed everything correctly, but have encluded all the things I've edited below.
I was using wamp with no problems but after trying to set up a virtual host and now using xampp im abit lost its probabsomething stupid but I can find the prob.
(This post is abit long and dragged out so I used some colour to try ease the reading..)
When I try to view a dynamic page in live view or in firefox I get the following error:

This is what I've done, blue indicating where I have or was meant to edit, red being the relivant context. (hope it helps )
1. Created a new folder called htdocs (C:\htdocs)
2. Changed the pathname to:
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
# symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
DocumentRoot "C:/htdocs"
and
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
<Directory "C:/htdocs">
3. Created vhosts folder; with a sub-folder called thegoodlife (C:\vhosts)
4. entered new vhost:
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
# For example:

hope i've covered all area's where I could have gone wrong

Just one more thing - the description of what i did while first Kernel appeared:
Happened 2 days ago. Wasn't turning it off for like a day, only sleep mode by closing it. Worked fine all day, wasn't doing anything, except for checking mail 2-3 times and having windows 7 virtual machine opened but doing nothing, everything was going fine. Then closed it without turning off.
Opened 3-4 hours later, everything was working fine for 30 minutes of checking mail, then Kernel appeared. After that pretty much everything i did is described in part 1-5.
Note: all the time MBP was connected to internet via wifi, so updates to both MBP and virtual machine of all programs were possible.
I only shared downloads and desktop folders, so windows couldn't have access to system folder of Mac Os.
Hope this might help...Thanks again.

Web sharing - virtual hosts and CGI

This topic might be a bit advanced for this forum, I'm not sure. But here goes.
I'm trying to set up my laptop to act like a web server so that I can do test development on it. I have two web sites, and have successfully created virtual hosts for each of them.
The part that I'm struggling with now is enabling CGIs, as I want to learn to write CGIs in Perl. I can't seem to find any site that discusses how this is done in Leopard. One said something like "just put the CGIs into /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables and it'll work", but of course, since I've got virtual hosts defined, it seems that anything addressed to "localhost" defaults to the first virtual host and thus there is no way to refer to a CGI placed in that location. Besides which, I'd like to know how to enable CGIs placed in a folder on each of my virtual sites, so that I could test them in place.
Any ideas?

One said something like "just put the CGIs into /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables and it'll work", but of course, since I've got virtual hosts defined, it seems that anything addressed to "localhost" defaults to the first virtual host and thus there is no way to refer to a CGI placed in that location.
That is an incorrect assumption.
By default, Apache is configured to recognize any URI that begins with /cgi-bin and serve that request via a CGI script in /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables
This is true even though each site's DocumentRoot is set somewhere else on the file system (that's by design since it makes it harder for a remote attacker to affect your CGIs)
Since it does not matter which site the request was on, any /cgi-bin request would be served from there, so:
http://www.domain1.com/cgi-bin/some.cgi
http://www.domains2.net/cgi-bin/other.cgi
would both be served from /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables even though they are for two different virtual hosts.
Now, of course, if you want each site to be separate and have its own set of CGIs (maybe some.cgi for domain1 does something different from some.cgi on domain2) then this approach causes problems. For this you will need to edit each site to have its own cgi-bin directory.
Unfortunately (although I haven't tested it) I think Matt's solution won't work because Apache is going to catch all /cgi-bin/ requests and serve them from /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables, never getting to the cgi-bin directory within each site's documentroot.
To set site-specific CGI directories you need to add a ScriptAlias command to each site's .conf, such as:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /path/to/site/cgi-bin/
This tells apache that any request for /cgi-bin/* should be served from /path/to/site/cgi-bin
Ideally the path should be outside of the site's normal document root, but it can be inside if you really want.

What does virtual host and port mean in a system in ESB console

Hi !
When you click on a system in ESB console you can see and change 'cluster name' , 'Virtual host' and 'Port' .
What does this mean ?
As default the port is 8888 even though the installation uses port 80.
If I change the port, I see no difference.
Could someone please explain ?

It is used to generate the endpoint urls in the wsdl's for the services you have deployed. It needs to be set to the esb server and port number where the services are installed. So if your esb installation uses port 80 you need to change 8888 to 80. Try the wsdl and look at the url of the endpoint.
Kind Regards,
Andre

Apache virtual hosting and URL prefixes

I am having a bit of trouble with processing PHP after
setting up a virtual server on apache.
This is the setup:
Apache is installed and the document root is "C:\Program
Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs" which was originally set as
localhost as well
Virtual hosting is to be set up for "C:\WEBSITES\mysite" This
directory, you will note,is outside the htdocs directory.
I edited the httpd.conf file as follows to set up a virtual
server.
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
DocumentRoot "C:\WEBSITES\mysite"
ServerName mysite.local
</VirtualHost>
I didnt forget to remap localhost either ..........
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80>
DocumentRoot "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs"
ServerName localhost
</VirtualHost>
the hosts file got tweaked too to include this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 mysite.local
Everything was restarted and hey presto localhost still
processes PHP properly but mysite doesnt.
I am pretty sure i've set the url prefix wrong. The DWeaver
help files refer to an IIS setup. Could anybody fill me in on what
to put in this line and why. Any other pitfalls in setting this up
would also be kindly received
PS - port 80 is the listening port if it helps.

All I did when I set up Apache was to set the document root
to what I
wanted:
DocumentRoot "C:\webserver"
and I put my documents in the "webserver" directory. I did
this cause the
htdocs directory path is way long .. it works fine.
Mine is localhost:8080 cause I have IIS on 80 but I don't see
where it
should matter.

Virtual Hosts and Mod_JK

I setup two sites: madplanet.com and j-community.org. Both on all addresses and on port 80. The two domain names resolve to an external IP address. I configured Mod_JK correctly in the httpd.conf file.
Now I configured two workers in workers.properties each pointing to a different JBoss/Tomcat server. I added them to the workers list and finally added them manually to the appropriate XXXXany_90<domain name>.conf file in the sites directory which looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName madplanet.com
ServerAdmin [email protected]
DocumentRoot "/Library/WebServer/Documents"
DirectoryIndex "index.html" "index.php"
CustomLog "/var/log/apache2/access_log" "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b"

</VirtualHost>
Still after the web service is started both domains delivery the same content (the one from madplanet.com) meaning that 'http://madplanet.com' and 'http://j-community.org' delivery the same web site. Using the web site port from Tomcat the j-community website comes up fine.
Any pointers?
Thanks - Andy

Your fatal flaw is the line:
ServerAlias *
This tells Apache that this virtual host matches all hostnames, so it doesn't matter what site the user tried to access, they will always get the output of this virtual host.
Remove this line and you should be fine.

Virtual hosts and mod_oc4j. Can someone from Oracle please answer, at least reply.

Can someone please explain how to configure mod_oc4j and virtual hosts. It can be done with mod_jk, but I am have major problems in getting it to work with mod_oc4j.

I am not sure about mod_jk so I won't touch that.
mod_oc4j introduces directives that have the scope of either default server or virtual host - just like most OHS (Apache) directives. By default, these directives are in a file mod_oc4j.conf, and this file is included at the highest level.
If you do want those mount points defined in mod_oc4j.conf to be available only to a certain virtual host etc., you can either create a mod_oc4j_vh1.conf file and have it included within the scope of the vh1 virtual host. Or, you can just define those directives right within the vh1 virtual host directive.

Virtual hosts and rewrite rule

I've got Oracle portal with several virtual hosts setup.
<VirtualHost *:7778>
ServerName hosta
Port 80
ServerAdmin [email protected]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
OssoIpCheck off
ErrorLog "|d:\oracle\mid10g\Apache\Apache\bin\rotatelogs logs/hosta_error_log 43200"
CustomLog "|d:\oracle\mid10g\Apache\Apache\bin\rotatelogs logs/hosta_access_log 43200" common
RewriteRule ^/$ /portal/page/portal/bmi/hosta/$1 [PT,L]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:7778>
ServerName hostb
Port 80
ServerAdmin [email protected]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions inherit
OssoIpCheck off
ErrorLog "|d:\oracle\mid10g\Apache\Apache\bin\rotatelogs logs/www.jafabu.co.uk_error_log 43200"
CustomLog "|d:\oracle\mid10g\Apache\Apache\bin\rotatelogs logs/www.jafabu.co.uk_access_log 43200" common
RewriteRule ^/?$ /portal/page/portal/pdg/hostb/$1 [PT,L]
</VirtualHost>
This doesn't match any of the pages I have in the two pagegrooups - "HostA" and "HostB".
If I try RewriteRule ^/(..*)$ /portal/page/portal/pdg/hostb/$1 [PT,L], then Portal reports back about there being a problem and promptly dies.
How do I allow http://hosta/ being a different hpome page to http://hostb/ and allow any pages to be referenced without Portal crashing ??? I dont want to add a new rewrite page for avery page my developers add in....
Thanks
Kev

You cannot use your virtual hostnames as a page or procedure name. Instead, please try this:
<VirtualHost *:8001>
ServerName hosta.yourdomain.com
# Redirect if on desired VirtualHost:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^hosta\.yourdomain\.com \[NC,OR\]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com \[NC\]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://hosta.yourdomain.com/portal/page/portal/ \[R\]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:8001>
ServerName hostb.yourdomain.com
# Redirect if on desired VirtualHost:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^hosta\.yourdomain\.com \[NC,OR\]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com \[NC\]
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://hostb.yourdomain.com/portal/page/portal/ \[R\]
</VirtualHost>
hope that helps!

Virtual Hosts and CF Server Install

CF8
FC8 (yes I know it really has to be RHEL for support)
Apache 2.2.6
I am testing out a new webserver for a client. We are trying
to use apache virtual hosts with a single instance of CF8. This
will just be a few virtualhosts, not a large amount.
After some difficulty with installations and the connector I
was able to get CF8 running with apache. After setting up the
virtualhosts I only could get to the CFIDE directory after adding
it as an alias in the virtualhost config.
If I try to pull up a test cfm file in a virtualhost site CF
reports file not found. Yet it will pull up the administrator site.
I assume thats because the /CFIDE path matches that in the main
webserver root directory.
Can I run a single instance of CF across apache and its
virtualhosts? I know CF is running in the VirtualHosts as its an
error screen from CF. However it just seems like CF is very
confused when it comes to directory paths.

I've been fighting the issue all day long. I was so glad to
come across your post. Unfortunately, there was no answer attached.
:-( I've figured it out in my install. Hopefully it will be of
benefit to you.
Turns out the problem was a permissions error. When
Coldfusion couldn't read my virtualhost's directory it defaulted to
the standard wwwroot. To fix it I did a "chmod -R a+rX
/home/jason/public_html. Then I tried loading the page again and
all was good.

Deploying applications to virtual hosts and root contexts on OC4J

Hi
Does anyone out there know how to use hostnames other than the default to talk to an OC4J application (live virtual hosts in Apache). I have a server called web.mydomain.com but for a particular website I want to access it as shop.otherdomain.com - the same machine just 2 different DNS entries. I want OC4J to accept requests for both these machines and display a different site depending on which is accessed. This functionality is provided in Tomcat by the <host> construct - but how do you do it in OC4J?
A secondary question related to this is how to deploy an application to the root context of one of these virtual hosts? The Enterprise Manager interface won't let you map anything to the '/' URL.
I have read a lot of documentation and found little of relevance (fairly typical). I hope this is just a simple option I have overlooked.
Thanks,
Anthony.

Sorry... Forgot to mention:
I have read the post about using URL rewriting but this seems like a bit of a fudge. I was wondering if there was a way to do this from the OC4J setup. Preferably through the Enterprise Manager?

How to configure virtual hosts and separate tiers

The configuration we require with WLS must:
1) provide virtual hosts that can operate under their own SSL environments (some one way, some two way, with different certs)
2) perform all XML parsing of received message objects in the web layer in order to (a) offload CPU from ejb layer to web layer and (b) prevent any malformed message from penetrating to the ejb layer - reject in the web layer
3) the web tier must be physically separate from the ejb tier - an integrated WLS server is not acceptable for security reasons
4) the ejb layer must be clusterable
5) DNS round robin is sufficient protection for web layer failover
I do not see clearly how to accomplish this configuration using the WLS suite. Would appreciate guidance on this prior to plunking down big dollars for licenses.
Thanks
