To do the former, we use Apache 2's mod_proxy_ajp to hand off certain chunks of the URI space to Tomcat via a ProxyPass declaration in the Apache config. You also have to configure Tomcat so that it doesn't listen on port 80, so that Apache can listen there. This takes a little fiddling around with to get working, but not much. Here's a chunk of our Tomcat-related part of the Apache config: ------ cut here ------ ## Set up mod_proxy_ajp for tomcat integration ProxyRequests Off <Proxy *> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy> <Location /xxx> ProxyPass ajp://localhost:8009/xxx </Location> ------ cut here ------ You can have multiple <Location /path> blocks, but for your purposes, it might be sufficient to just pass off /web. -- Steve Burling <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> University of Michigan, ICPSR Voice: +1 734 615.3779 330 Packard Street FAX: +1 734 647.8700 Ann Arbor, MI 48104-2910 ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
