Hi All! I'm having a problem setting up an existing webapp from Apache 2.2/Tomcat6 on a new server running Centos 7, and the following packages:
httpd 2.4.6-45.el7.centos.4 tomcat.noarch 7.0.69-11.el7_3 @updates tomcat-native.x86_64 1.1.34-1.el7 @epel For debugging I have enabled AJP/1.3 and 8009 and HTTP on 8080, then use Apache to ProxyPass. With my initial configuration, data from a form POST is not available via request.getParameter: ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/ <ajp://localhost:8009/> retry=1 acquire=3000 timeout=600 Keepalive=On ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/ <ajp://localhost:8009/> But changing it to this fixes everything: ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/ <http://localhost:8080/> retry=1 acquire=3000 timeout=600 Keepalive=On ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/ <http://localhost:8080/> In the broken instance, request.getParameter("x") returned null, but request.getReader() returned bytes with "x=123" so seems that Apache is sending the POST body but Tomcat is not processing it correctly, yes? Please also see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44167876/problems-with-post-parameters-with-tomcat-ajp-on-apache-2-4-but-not-2-2 <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44167876/problems-with-post-parameters-with-tomcat-ajp-on-apache-2-4-but-not-2-2> for my steps so far. I would prefer to switch back to AJP for the proxy, since I understand it is more performant, right? Should I try forcing a Tomcat 8 install to see if the problem persists there too? Best, Nic.
