Setup Virtual Servers in IIS with WLS 8.1

Hi,
I have multiple virtual servers (using host headers) in my IIS 5.0 web server. I also created multiple server instances in WLS. Can anyone tell me how I can integrate this virtual servers to connect to WLS virtual servers via port 80.
Would I have to create ini file for all virtual IIS servers.
Thanks

Help with J2EE SDK 1.4 Virtual Servers please!

H!
Are we doomed to have just one virtual server pointing to port 80??
I have a Win2K computer with J2EE App Server 1.4. In this computer I stopped the IIS 5.0 in order to use the HTTP Server included with the product. I also run the DNS on the same machine with 3 domains. All name resolutions for these 3 domains work fine.
Now I want to enter to any of the 3 domains freely and execute JSP apps. But I don't want to enter ports numbers like this:
http://www.mytest.com:8081/hello.jsp
I just want to enter:
http://www.mytest.com/hello.jsp
So I defined a new http-port listener pointing to the 80 port on this server. With no SSL support.
Name: http-port80
IP Address: 0.0.0.0
POrt: : 80
Then I defined a new virtual server using the http-port listener. I set the following fields:
ID: mytest
Hosts: www.mytest.com
HTTP Listener: http-port80 (This is the name of the port listener)
Everything seems to be fine. I can enter http://www.mytest.com and call the hello.jsp it's ok.
But then I create a new virtual server for http://www.mytest2.com exactly as the one for the www.mytest.com, except for the host field: http://www.mytest2.com
Then when I restart the app server I got the message on the log: "Port already in use".
I don't want to enter http://www.mytest2.com:<port> but I've read that you cannot assign the same http-listener to 2 virtual servers, so I created another listener pointing to the same port 80. But I still have the same error.
Any ideas how to handle this?
Am I doing something wrong on the configuration?
Thank you very much!!

I can help you out with this, because I just solved this problem using the Apache web server 2.0 with mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http.
this is how the configuration works.
setup sunone creating one virtual host for each http-listener on a different port. and make sure these ports are any port except the 80. -- we will configure apache on this port and then use it as a reverse proxy to get to our hosts.
like this
virtual-listener-1 - port 8081
virtual-listener-2 - port 8082
virtual-listener-3 - port 8083
virtual-host-1: www1.domain.com bind to: virtual-listener-1
virtual-host-2: www2.domain.com bind to: virtual-listener-2
virtual-host-3: www3.domain.com bind to: virtual-listener-3
now download apache with all the modules http://www.apache.org
in your httpd.conf add the following lines of code.
#the code below will tell apache to enable the proxy for your host
<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
# Proxy Server directives. Uncomment the following lines to
# enable the proxy server:
ProxyRequests On
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from www1.domain.com
Allow from www2.domain.com
Allow from www3.domain.com
</Proxy>
# Enable/disable the handling of HTTP/1.1 "Via:" headers.
# ("Full" adds the server version; "Block" removes all outgoing Via: headers)
# Set to one of: Off | On | Full | Block
ProxyVia On
# End of proxy directives.
</IfModule>
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www1.domain.com
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
ProxyPass http://sunoneserver:8081/
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www2.domain.com
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
ProxyPass http://sunoneserver:8082/
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www3.domain.com
<Location />
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
ProxyPass http://sunoneserver:8083/
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
note the sunone server indicates the server where you installed sunone-as (J2EE 1.4). this will give you the result you are looking for: all three of these sites will run on port 80 and each of them will respond to a different web application on sunone.
there are naturally limits because when you run out of ports on your application server this won't work any more but then again there are about 60000 of those free and i don't think you will be able to run that many sites on one server anyway.

IIS plug-in config with WLS 8.1 sp2

We are currently migrating from another app server and have run into problems configuring
the IIS plug-in. We have reviewed the e-docs and developer Web pages on how to
configure the plug-in but cannot successfully find information on how to point
a single IIS virtual host to multiple app servers and URIs on WLS. We're trying
to have one IIS ip:port point to many BEA app servers which can then point to
many URIs so that we can distribute load and code updates across several clusters.
Example:
ourdomain.com -> to WLServer1:8010 /app1/uri1
/app2/uri2
WLServer2:8011 /app3/uri3
/app4/uri4
The problem so far has been getting the IISProxy file to point to more than one
application server (JVM Instance) running on the two WLS machines.
Thanks for any help you can offer!

You should provide some more information. Which IP are you binding to on
          WLS? Are you specifying the same IP in the iisproxy.ini for the
          WebLogicHost?
          Show us your configuration for the iisproxy.ini.
          My best bet is that you are specifying a different IP address in the
          iisproxy.ini or perhaps you are specifying a hostname that does not resolve
          to the bound IP on WLS.

Multiple Virtual servers, one listener setup

I am trying SJS 7 as a Proof of Concept project to replace our existing iPlaney 6 and Netscape 2 server instances.
My question is how do I setup SJS to have one http listener on port 80, but be able to handle multiple websites? I want to use a CNAME under our DNS and then have the SJS environment look to see what the domain name is and point it to the correct directory when called upon via web browser.
Under our DNS, each stub file has something like:
mysite IN CNAME devsite.mydomain.com
mysite2 IN CNAME devsite.mydomain.com
Under our Apache's virthost.conf, I just need to do the following:
<VirtualHost mysite.com>
ServerName mysite.com
DocumentRoot /web/mysite.com/htdocs
ErrorLog /var/web/mysite.com/error_log
CustomLog /var/web/mysite.com/access_log common
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/web/mysite.com/htdocs/"
<Directory /web/mysite.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Multiviews +Includes
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost mysite2.com>
ServerName mysite2.com
DocumentRoot /web/mysite2.com/htdocs
ErrorLog /var/web/mysite2.com/error_log
CustomLog /var/web/mysite2.com/access_log common
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/web/mysite2.com/htdocs/"
<Directory /web/mysite2.com>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Multiviews +Includes
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I setup two virtual servers under one configuration, but the http-listener-1 instance only wants to point to one virtual server instance rather than the pair. I tried to add a 2nd http-listener, but it won't allow me to use the same CNAME address nor port 80 for it as well.
How do I do the same thing that I do with Apache virthosting under SJS 7?
-- Michael

I took a look at the server.xml file, and I currently have this:
<http-listener>
<name>http-listener-1</name>
<ip>sjsdev.mysite.com</ip>
<port>80</port>
<server-name>sjsdev.mysite.com</server-name>
<default-virtual-server-name>screwball</default-virtual-server-name>
</http-listener>
<virtual-server>
<name>screwball</name>
<http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
<host>sjsdev.mysite.com</host>
<object-file>screwball-obj.conf</object-file>
<document-root>/web/screwball.mysite.com/htdocs</document-root>
<log-file>/web/screwball.mysite.com/logs/server.log</log-file>
</virtual-server>
<virtual-server>
<name>fastball</name>
<http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
<host>sjsdev.mysite.com</host>
<object-file>fastball-obj.conf</object-file>
<document-root>/web/fastball.mysite.com/htdocs</document-root>
<log-file>/web/fastball.mysite.com/logs/server.log</log-file>
</virtual-server>
I bounced the listener and virtual hosts then tried using a browser for testing.
If I go to http://screwball.mysite.com, it goes to the correct htdocs directory.
If I go to http://fastball.mysite.com, it goes to the screwball htdocs directory instead.
Also, is it possible to make these configuration changes via the Administration web GUI?
Trying to document this as much as possible, mostly via screenshots, for other team members.

Local director with multiple virtual servers

I have a local director with 4 interfaces. Two interfaces are used for 2 virtual servers each bound to 2 real servers. The virtuals and the reals are on the same sub-net as the local director's IP address.
I would like to know if I can use the other 2 interfaces to bind 2 real addresses to a third virtual where all three of the address are located on a different Subnet from the servers already present.

Yes this is possible. However, in order to make this work you will need to configure a couple
of things. First, on the Local Director you should configure an 'alias ip address' that belongs in this new subnet. Second, you need to configure a secondary IP address on the upstream router. This will serve several purposes. One, the servers will be able to reach devices outside their own subnet. Two, the router will now belong to this subnet and therefore will be able to ARP for the new virtual.
Hope it helps.

SBS 2003 to Server 2013 migration - How many virtual Servers?

Hi
I need to replace our SBS2003 - we are about 10 users. We use it for:
AD
File/Print
Exchange
SQL
WSUS
Subversion
TrendMicro WFBS
Since there is no current follow up product I feel like I need to setup:
Server 2012 R2
Exchange 2013
SQL Server 2012 Express
I found inconsistent information on how many virtual servers I will need. Is it correct that in contrast to SBS I must have multiple (virtual) servers?
What is best practice for this scenario (# of VM's, "what" goes best with "what", sizes ..)
Thanks a lot for your help .. I have a very good knowledge about the SBS2003 but unfortunately not about the later Standard Server Versions.

Well.. best practice would suggest,
1 VM - DC
1 VM - Exchange
1 VM - SQL
Reality though, suggests they may not be required.
What do you 'need'?, is a better question.
Can you move to hosted exchange?
You can certainly use the Hosted Trend Micro AV product which removes the requirement to run a console on your server.
Perhaps 2 VMs would be sufficient a DC, and a second to host your applications and WSUS.

Another newb question: multiple virtual servers

Hi, I have yet another ignorant question. I have several unrelated web projects that I am working on, and I would like to be able to set up a virtual server for each one for testing purposes, such as: http://project1, http://project2, http://project3. Can someone tell me if this is doable, and if there are any tutorials/resources on this for someone who has 0 experience running a web serer? Sorry for being so ignorant!

Yes, it is doable.
You can setup virtual server either by IP or by name.
If you have one IP, and want to set them up by name (ex. http://project1, http://project2, http://project3) you can do so easily with this type of configuration:
<virtual-server>
    <name>mydomain</name>
    <http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
    <host>*.mydomain.com</host>
    <document-root>/www/domain</document-root>
</virtual-server>
<virtual-server>
    <name>myotherdomain</name>
    <http-listener-name>http-listener-1</http-listener-name>
    <host>*.myotherdomain.com</host>
    <document-root>/www/myotherdomain</document-root>
</virtual-server>
....The important part here is that
a) all virtual servers share the same HTTP listener
b) which virtual server serves the request depends on the $HOST request header send by the client. Sun Web Server does the matching for you. It will match $HOST vs. the virtual server's host attribute. Depending on which site you connect to the right virtual server will be used.
c) if the $HOST request header does not match any of the virtual servers, then the default virtual server defined in the HTTP listener will be used.
To create a virtual server, use the Admin GUI, access the configuration, and then add new virtual server. Or use the following CLI command.
wadm> create-virtual-server --config=myconfig --http-listener-name=http-listener-1 --document-root=/www/docs/myserver.com --host-pattern=myserver.com --log-file=../logs/myserver.com-error_logs myserverHost pattern will be used for matching. Some of this elements might be optional.
Hope that helps. And keep the questions coming :D

SAP on virtual servers (Hardware requirements)

Hi Guys.
I would like to setup a Windows desktop server and then using VMWare create several virtual servers, in order to install IDES SAP Solutions over Windows Server 2008 with DB6/SQL Server/Oracle
Let says about 4-5 virtual servers and each one deploy an ECC 6.0 Instance, Netweaver 7, Solution Manager EHP1, CRM, Portal and any of other SAP Solutions with their respective DB.
This is all intended for testing purposes, like installing, upgrading, and testing features
What 64bit processor type, memory, disk, would you recommmend? Im thinking on an Intel i7 cpu, with 8GB Memory, and perhaps 1 TB disk, and so on.
If any of you have experience setting up a virtual lab like this, would be highly appreciated.

Pvlans and virtual servers

folks
not sure if this is the correct place to post but i'm hopeful someone here will have used this scenario
i have a existing and working pvlan with the usual community and isolated ports but i need to add a new setup to it
i have a requirement to add a virtual server which will host serveral virtuals and they will all be on the same switch port
has anyone any experience of this and if so are there any pitfalls to look out for
the virtual servers shouldn't need to talk to each other and should only be talking to the promiscuous port on the default gateway
thanks to anyone taking the time to read this or to reply

Hi Bro
I’ve never configured PVLAN in any of my deployments but I’m familiar with the do’s and don’t’s of PVLAN.
Basically, your question here is, in a physical server, you’ll have many virtual servers. Each of these virtual servers will have a different IP Address, but same MAC Address, connected to a single switchport of a Cisco Switch.
Even if you were to configure that particular switchport as “isolated”, this still wouldn’t resolve your issue. This is because you want to have a complete separation from one virtual server to another virtual server, within the same physical server connected to a single switchport of a Cisco Switch.
I did some homework for you, and I believe VMWARE can do this. Please do refer to

How to protect an application running on IIS with OAM 11gR2

Hello Gurus,
I have a question regarding protecting an application running on IIS with OAM 11gR2. We have an OHS server running and all the requests from the users are coming to this OHS server webgate for them to login using the SSO login page. These is all solaris. I am protecting other applications like pplsoft moduels with this OHS instance and OAM server. There is another application that I need to protect which is itself running on IIS windows machine. I need guidance as to -
1.) Do I need to install a windows version of webgate to protect this IIS based application?
2.) Or I can still protect and proxy requests from this application to current OHS instance? How can I do this?
3.) Or Do I need to proxy requests directly from IIS to OAM weblogic server?
Please advise to the earliest as this is an urgent issue.
Thanks !!

From your description it is not clear how exactly architecture looks like
We have an OHS server running and all the requests from the users are coming to this OHS server webgate for them to login using the SSO login page.
is this OHS centralized login farm ? (Case 1)
OR is this OHS server (with webgate) acting as virtual web server hosting multiple web sites so that request to any site passes through this OHS/webgate (Case 2)
1.) Do I need to install a windows version of webgate to protect this IIS based application?
If case 1 then you need to install 10g webgate on top of IIS server to protect this application
If case 2 then you can just proxy request from OHS to IIS server. As every request passes through OHS user will be authenticated before request hits IIS
Look at Product documentation for virtual web sites : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/admin.1112/e27239/shared.htm#autoId12
It has steps to protect virtual web sites.
Also you need to make sure no one hits IIIS web sites directly.
Hope this helps

Java ftp server which can use LDAP, how to integrate with WLS' implementation of LDAP?

Howdy.
I'm setting up a java ftp server
(http://www.mycgiserver.com/~ranab/ftp/index.html) which is capable of using
LDAP for it's user security. I would like to integrate this ftp server with
wls' implementation of LDAP so I only have to admin one user list.
Does wls put it's user list in the LDAP or in it's own proprietary setup? I
tried playing around with it, but the users don't seem to appear in the JNDI
tree. Is this where the LDAP stuff is located? I thought it was in there?
If it's in it's own setup, is there a way to propagate the users to LDAP?
If these look like newbie Q&A, I guess they kind of are, I'm new to LDAP.
Thanks for any input you might have.

Peter,
If you are talking about using the embedded LDAP server in WLS 7.0 for this purpose
I think you are going done the wrong path.

www.abc.com:80
www.php.com:2222
www.asp.com:3333
www.jsp.com:4444
Now the issue is
I want to run the applications by using url with out portno in the browser
like www.php.com instead of www.php.com:2222
my DNS is aware of the www.abc.com,www.php.com,asp.com,jsp.com
From Internet I can access www.abc.com:80 as www.abc.com becoz it is running on port 80.
If I type www.php.com it is directing to www.abc.com not to www.php.com:2222.
In the host file under windows/system32/drivers/etc I added the following lines
10.129.149.196 www.abc.com
10.129.149.196 www.php.com
10.129.149.196 www.asp.com
10.129.149.196 www.jsp.com
I want to run the applications without entering portno along with url in the browser.
Can any one help me please.
Thanks in advance

Dear M.V,
I choose one server(www.xyz.com) that is running on port 80,in its server.xml I added
<VS id="https-pqr" connections="ls1" mime="mime1" aclids="acl1" urlhosts="www.pqr.com" state="on">

</VS>
which is of pqr virtual server that is running on port 3333
Now with out port no ie, with www.pqr.com I am able to see the home page of application running on pqr virtual server.
With this configuration I need to check at client environment
If u find mistakes from the above configuration please let me know
Thanks alot

Best practices for setting up virtual servers on Windows Server 2012 R2

I am creating a Web server from scratch with Windows Server 2012 R2. I expect to have a host server, and then 3 virtual servers...one that runs all of the web apps as a web server, another as a Database Server, and then on for session state. I
expect to use Windows Server 2012 R2 for the Web Server and Database Server, but Windows 7 for the session state.
I have an SATA2 Intel SROMBSASMR RAID card with battery back up that I am attaching a small SSD drive that I expect to use for the session state, and an IBM Server RAID M1015 SATA3 card that I am running Intel 520 Series SSD's that I expect to
use for Web server and Database server.
I have some questions. I am considering using the internal USB with a flash drive to boot the Host off of, and then using two small SSD's in a Raid 0 for the Web server (theory being that if something goes wrong, session state is on a different drive), and
then 2 more for the Database server in a RAID 1 configuration.
please feel free to poke holes in this and tell me of a better way to do it.
I am assuming that having the host running on a slow USB drive that is internal has no effect on the virtual servers after it is booted up, and the virtual servers are booted up?

There are two issues about RAID0:
1) It's not as fast as people think. So with a general purpose file system like NTFS or ReFS (choice for Windows is limited) you're not going to have any great benefits as there are very low chances whole RAID stripe would be updated @ the same time (I/Os
need to touch all SSDs in a set so 256KB+ in a real life). Web server workload is quite far away from sequential reads or writes so RAID0 is not going to shine here. Log-structures file system (or at least some FS with logging capabilities, think about ZFS
and ZIL enabled) *will* benefit from SSDs in RAID0 properly assigned.
2) RAID0 is dangerous. One lost SSD would render whole RAID set useless. So unless you build a network RAID1-over-RAID0 (mirror RAID sets between multiple hosts with a virtual SAN like or synchronous replication solutions) - you'll be sitting on a time bomb.
Not good :)
StarWind VSAN [Virtual SAN] clusters Hyper-V without SAS, Fibre Channel, SMB 3.0 or iSCSI, uses Ethernet to mirror internally mounted SATA disks between hosts.

How to customize search in WS 7 and for multiple virtual servers?

I'm not clear on how to customize search results pages in Sun Web Server 7. The documentation (the Adminstrator's Guide, page 215) says:
You can take a look at the default search application located at /bin/https/webapps/search as a sample application
but I'm not seeing any such thing. I did a find . -name search -type d from the server root and instance root but the only search directories I'm seeing are subdirectories within the generated directory and they look like system generated jsps that I shouldn't touch (So I didn't :-)
So one question is, where is the default app? A second question is, how do we set up different branding for different virtual servers?
We're currently using WS 6.1 and it has a field in the GUI for the directory containing the web app to use for search. That seems to have disappeared in WS 7.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Dave

I don't use the search engine, so I'm afriad I don't have direct experience here.
What I'd probably do is modify the app so that it looks at the Host data to determine which directory it should point to for graphics, formatting, etc. You could also use the obj.conf with variables to pull graphics from directories appropriately branded. Something like:
1) Create "additional doc directory" for images
2) Find the entry in the obj.conf that points to the new directory
3) Modify the path to something like /path/to/$host/images
4) Make sure you create directories like:
/path/to/foobar.com/images/
/path/to/www.foobar.com/images/
/path/to/baz.com/images/
/path/to/www.baz.com/images/
