How to adapt Apache configuration to OS X Server?

I'm trying to get Server working on a Mac Pro that had been very happily running a number of websites with the built-in Apache installation all the way up to and including 10.8. Sigh. Server has been a complete nightmare in a bunch of areas, but especially with getting the websites working properly. Things are sorta kinda working, but I'm nowhere near where I was before. Maybe someone here can help...
Here's how things are set up:
My Apache config files are still in /etc/apache2 -- the main stuff is in httpd.conf, with a number of site definitions in /etc/apache2/other; these get loaded through an include statement in httpd.conf.
I've created entries in the Websites section of Server pointing to the sites. I've left the sites' files in /Library/WebServer/Documents where they used to be, and pointed the server entry to those files via the "Store Site Files In:" option. In the cases where the domain name is something like example.com, I've set up the "Domain Name" entry in Server as www.example.com. I've then added "example.com" as an "Additional Domain"
What's happening is that the "www." versions of the sites are getting found and presented, but the basic domain doesn't work -- visiting www.example.com works, but visiting example.com doesn't. In addition, some of the sites have nontrivial (and necessary) stuff in their config files -- redirection and the like -- and it's clear that the things specified there aren't happening.
So, as a first guess, it looks like the config files in /etc/apache2 aren't getting read, or interpreted, or whatever. If this is meant to be a real web server tool, surely there's a way to handle custom Apache configurations. Does this may sense to anyone? Are there any clues out there? To my eye, getting this stuff working should have been trivial, and it's been nothing but a nightmare.

Hi Jim,
I've had similar problems with OS X server but have gradually overcome them all, through working out the 'intent' of the developers. My main reason for installing OS X server was to take things back in house after one of my commercial sites got hacked. With a very Apple-centric household, I thought it would make life easier with tools like Profile Manager.
If you we're to ask me my reasons now, I would probably say its that I refuse to be beaten as I have spent so much time getting it right.
The good news from your point of view is that there are loads of people like me within the forums who can help with whatever ails you!
My config is as follows:
OS X standard Apache and Postgres
PHP 5.4 with additional modules for imap integrated with OS X Apache but never to be clobbered by OS X upgrades.
MySQL via homebrew.
Running on OS X server.
Domain1.com - OS X wiki server
- Roundcube Webmail installed as a webapp with MD5 auth ( can be attached to any website domain this way)
- Webapp for Reverse proxy to an Ubuntu Server instance running under Parallels VM on same machine (different IP address) providing UPS monitoring and shutdown of all machines on network through NUT and SNMP monitoring via Cacti. My particular UPS's (Powerware 5110 x 2) USB driver not working under OS X power management nor NUT under OS X.
- 2 minecraft servers for my son and his mates!
Domain1.com.au - commercial site running Drupal CMS / Postgres
Crm.domain1.com.au - SugarCRM CE 6.5 / MySQL integrated with OS X mail and calendar server.
Web mail via webapp
Domain2.com.au - commercial site - HTML
Webmail via webapp
Why not list what you are trying to do and what's not working and we can try to sort it out.
Cheers
Gerry

if you just want to install messaging server on a single host, for evaluation purpose, in the documentation
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4879
there is an exhaustive guide. If instead you're trying to addres some specific question, then please give us more details such as O.S., schema version, and so on...

How to do Apache configuration for two different domains

Hi ,
I was just trying out some clustering workshop on weblogic. I faced a issue..here is the scenario :
I have two clusters :
Cluster1 : 3 managed servers (server1,server2,server3)
Cluster2 : 2managed servers (server4,server5)
I have two sample applications which i have deployed on these two clusters i.e app1 on cluster1 and app2 on cluster2.
These two aplications are deployed successsfully as i am able to open these applicatons from browser by calling the individual port of the managed server like : http://localhost:7003/app1.
Now i have installed a apache server on my laptop and configured the http.conf file.
Issue : I am not able to call both the application from apache. If there is only one cluster then it is working fine and for two application only one cluster (application) is working that too whose port is defined in the last.
Here are the contents of my httpd.conf file :
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2> for detailed information.
# In particular, see
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do not begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo.log"
# with ServerRoot set to "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/foo.log".
# NOTE: Where filenames are specified, you must use forward slashes
# instead of backslashes (e.g., "c:/apache" instead of "c:\apache").
# If a drive letter is omitted, the drive on which httpd.exe is located
# will be used by default. It is recommended that you always supply
# an explicit drive letter in absolute paths to avoid confusion.
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive
# at a local disk. If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple
# httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.
ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2"
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80

So here for the above configuration only app2 i am able to call and for app1 its saying "404 page not found".

This configuration is weird little bit. There is MatchExpression /app1 and MatchExpression /app2 and at the same time two <Location /weblogic> sections. Are you sure you understand what that configuration stands for?
Try something like this ...
<Location /app1>
SetHandler weblogic-handler
WebLogicCluster 127.0.0.1:7003,127.0.0.1:7005,127.0.0.1:7007,127.0.0.1:7103,127.0.0.1:7104

where /app1 and /app2 are contexts of your weblogic applications.

How can a JMS adapter be configured in BPEL to consume messages from multiple queues ?

If you want to use JMS with AQ as datastore then there is some configuration you need to do to enable this. This is outside SOA Suite per sa, e.g. no adapter required.
If you want to connect to the AQ direct then use the AQ adapter.
this blog may be of some help understand the configuration

How to customize mavericks' mac osx server apache configuration?

I have installed Mac OSX Mavericks Server and I would like to add some features to the Apache Server (gitolite, redmine, etc.) I've started with updating the httpd_server_app.conf file in/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2 but unfortunately it has been overwritten by the server to its default. Maybe because I've updated something in the UI, or an update occurred... Anyway, I would like to know how can I update the configuration file in a permanent and persistent way, and still benefit the OSX Server UI and/or updates...
I've probably missed the big : "Put your own things here:" label...
PS: By the way, I wish to modify some of the current configuration, not only adding things...

If you scroll down through the standard httpd_server_app.conf file you will eventually find a section full of include options. (Some of which are commented out.)
One of these enabled include options is for /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/other/*.conf
The implication of this is that if you put your own httpd.conf file in the 'other' directory then any settings you put in it will be included in your Apache configuration and will not be over-written by Apple's Server.app software.

Sort.java
=====
package examples;
import org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.log4j.Priority;
Example code for log4j to viewed in conjunction with the {@link
examples.SortAlgo SortAlgo} class.
This program expects a configuration file name as its first
argument, and the size of the array to sort as the second and last
argument. See its source
code for more details.
Play around with different values in the configuration file and
watch the changing behavior.
Example configuration files can be found in <a
href="doc-files/sort1.properties">sort1.properties</a>, <a
href="doc-files/sort2.properties">sort2.properties</a>, <a
href="doc-files/sort3.properties">sort3.properties</a> and <a
href="doc-files/sort4.properties">sort4.properties</a> are supplied with the
package.
If you are also interested in logging performance, then have
look at the {@link org.apache.log4j.performance.Logging} class.

please help me how can write that configuration file

Hi bala,
check that log4j manual I pointed to in yer previous thread.
This is a pot-boiler config file... Copy it into some file say "props.conf" and use it.
# Set root logger level to DEBUG and its only appender to A1.
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, A1
# A1 is set to be a ConsoleAppender.
log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
# A1 uses PatternLayout.
log4j.appender.A1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%nCheers,

How to add and configure an additional hard drive.

I will like to know how to install and configure an additional hard drive. I will like to know how to configure the server so the services will start using this additional space. Intel based Xserver. late 2009.
Erik.

Your question is a little vague... "services will start using this additional space..."?
Let's see, where to start.
You don't say how many drives you currently have in your server. If all three drive bays are used then you'll probably need some kind of external array. There are many to choose from.
If you have a spare bay (or two) then you can buy a new drive bay (ADM - Apple Drive Module) (several online vendors still sell them), but you can't just put a bare drive into an empty bay since the blank trays lack the electrical connectors to support a drive.
Once you work out your drive options (internal vs. external, capacity, etc.) you can work out a plan to use them.
The specifics of that will depend on what services you're using. Are you web serving? file serving? home directory serving? or maybe mail? database? something else.
In general, once a drive is attached and initialized (via Disk Utility.app) it's up to you to configure the individual server components to use the space. That typically involves changing some kind of configuration parameter (e.g. httpd.conf for apache, /etc/my.cnf for MySQL, or various options in Server.app for other services) to tell them to use the new volume.
If you want to migrate the entire server to the new drive (e.g. the new drive is larger/faster) then you can clone your existing OS drive to the new drive and just reboot.
So, you see, there are many ways to do this. Everyone's situation will be a little different.

How to cluster Apache?

Okay I know this isn't really a cluster apache thing (as the apache code is on the local servers volme) but I guess what I want/need to know is how do I cluster an alias on an NSS volume?
So each cluster server has the Apache engine on it.
I have an NSS volume with say, an index.html and stuff on it that I want served up
Do I:
1) Create a separate virtual server for apache to load when I float the cluster resource around?
or
2) Configure each of the server's document/alias stuff to point to that volume and then as the node floats around it magically works?

More of the latter - once the volume is in place and the IP address
added, the apache2 restart will complete the bind.

How to install Apache Web Server with PHP on Sun Solaris Sparc machine

Hi,
We are trying to install the Apache Web Server and the PHP package on a Sun Solaris Sparc machine running on SunOS 5.8. We are having compilation problems with the source code of both these packages.
Does anybody know if there are ready solaris packages for Apache and PHP available from where we can download and install instead of source code compilation?
Or any instructions / things to watch for when installing Apache with PHP (if anybody has tried installing Apache with PHP on Sun Solaris earlier) is most welcome.
Thanks,
Harish

Apache should be bundled along with Solaris check in "/var/apache" in Solaris 8 and Solaris 9
php is available at www.php.net
I found an old document for installing PHP maybe this will help.
Cheers

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Installing PHP 3.x for Apache 1.x.x on Solaris
Introduction
This document describes how to install PHP for Apache on Solaris.
You should have Apache installed before trying to install PHP.
If you want to use PHP with MySQL then you must install MySQL first.
Before we Begin
1. These instructions assume that you have Apache installed according to instructions.
Getting PHP
1. You must be logged in as root to perform this installation.
su root
2. I save all my downloads in:
/usr/local/dist
If you don't already have one, you may need to create that directory now:
mkdir /usr/local/dist
3. You can get PHP 3.0.14 from here(www.php.net).
cd /usr/local/dist
ftp ftp.php.net
cd pub/distributions
bin
get php-3.0.14.tar.gz
bye
Installing PHP
1. We will install PHP in /usr/local/build, but use a tricky tar command
to do it in on hit from the download directory:
cd /usr/local/dist
tar xvfz php-3.0.12.tar.gz -C ../build
Compiling PHP
1. First let's get where the action is:
cd /usr/local/build/php-3.0.14
2. You now have 3 options:
* Simple PHP install without MySQL - goto step 3
* Simple PHP install with MySQL - goto step 4
* Custom PHP install - goto step 5
3. Simple PHP install without MySQL. Next, jump to step 6.
./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.12
4. Simple PHP install with MySQL. MySQL must be installed before you can configure PHP to use it. I recommend that MySQL should always be reachable with /usr/local/mysql. Even if you install it else where you
should create a symbolic link from /usr/local/mysql. Otherwise the compiler can have problems finding the mysqlclient library. The command
should look like this:
./configure with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql with-apache=../apache_1.3.12
Next, jump to step 6.
5. Custom PHP install. Take a look at the available configuration directives by using this command:
./configure --help
6. Now we can make the PHP executable. This may take a while.
make
7. Now we install the PHP module with:
make install
Adding the PHP Module to Apache
1. Now we have to setup Apache to include the PHP module:
cd ../apache_1.3.12
2. Re-configure Apache to use the PHP module. You should use your previous Apache configure command along with the PHP activate module directive.
You can see your previous Apache configure command by doing:
cat config.status
You can configure Apache using the previous command with the added PHP module by doing:
./config.status --activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
If you used the simple Apache install from instructions the command will look like this:
./configure prefix=/usr/local/apache activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
3. Make and install Apache with PHP enabled:
make
4. We need to stop the server before installing the files:
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl stop
5. Now we can install the new binaries:
make install
6. Start apache again (now running the new php enabled version):
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start
Setting Up PHP
1. We have to tell Apache to pass certain file extensions to PHP. We do this in Apache's httpd.conf file.
cd /usr/local/apache/conf
2. Edit the httpd.conf file. If you do a search for php you will find a couple of commented out lines telling Apache to use the PHP module. You should uncomment them to look like this.
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .phps
3. I prefer to use the extension .phtml, you can use whatever extension you like (even .html) by adding lines to httpd.conf like this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml
Check that it Works
1. We have to restart Apache to make these changes take effect on the running server.
cd /usr/local/apache/bin
./apachectl restart
2. Apache should now be running with PHP enabled. The server version should include PHP/3.0b2.
./apachectl status
Apache Server Status for dev.synop.com
Server Version: Apache/1.3.9 (Unix) PHP/3.0.12
Server Built: Oct 25 1999 00:37:07
3. Now it is time to test PHP with a page. The simplest thing to do is create a page called test.php3. My file is here. This file contains the
following text:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
4. Point your browser at this file on the virtual host which you used:
http://localhost/test.php3

How to configure a forms 6i server

Hi
I am trying to configure an oracle 6i server for a college project and need some help. I have the documentation but its very confusing and not beginner orientated!
I am using windows XP. The forms server 6i,Apache and Jinitiator are installed in the following folders all on the same machine:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2
C:\orant\FORMS60\server
C:\orant\jinit
How do i configure the Forms Server? I am connecting to a database over a network and the forms i am using are in the folder:
C:\orant\FORMS60\server
What environment variables should i change and to what?
What modifications should i make to the configuration files generated by th oracle installer i.e formsweb.cfg,base.htm and basejini.htm
As you can see i really need your help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jackie

How to install and configure an UNIX Oracle shared database

Hello everybody,
we have a SUN Solaris UNIX,
we have no problem for installing and configurate a typical database.
So we want a "shared" database (multithread).
When we try (deployement of a java application with JDevelopper), we cannot access to our instance of the shared database.
The error message is :
"SQLException: The network adapter could not establish the connection".
The architecture of our project include CISCO firewalls.
I think the configuration of Multi thread Server is not Ok or there are
a bug with firewalls.
How can i check a good shared configuration ?
What is the good configuration ?
If Somebody can help me with response and eventually samples of good
initialisation files like init.ora, listener.ora, sqlnet.ora ...
Thank you very much.

You can try this methodology to test connectivity :
From the server itself :
sqlplus username/password@tns
where tns is the alias of your database containing :
SID , machine ( where your db reside ) and port.
If you cannot connect from here , then check your tnsname.ora if you got the right entry.
From a client : ( different machine )
where tns is the alias of your database containing :
SID , machine ( where your db reside ) and port.
If you cannot connect from here , then check your tnsname.ora if you got the right entry
use SQLPLUS first to test connectivity, and if you were
able to run this process then move on run your java codes.
If installing sqlplus from the client is a hassle, first write a
java code testing just the connectivity with sqlplus installed
on the first machine and make it work first. Then you can
use this code to other clients without installing sqlplus.
