I apologize ahead of time. This may be a Linux or Tomcat question, but I thought I would see if anyone else had experience with this. I don't have much experience with Tomcat. I don't own the Linux machine that Axis2 and Tomcat are installed on so I have to rely on the admin to restart Tomcat and set up links, configurations, folders for me.
I have been given a folder at: /applications/myexternalfolder . I have a public URL: http://external.url.com that shows whatever HTML files, etc is in that folder. In addition, there is a link in /applications/Tomcat/webapps/myexternalfolder that points to /applications/myexternalfolder . I am able to install Axis2 with Tomcat 5.5.7 on a Linux machine and access the services and list services page internally, say using this internal URL: http://internal.url.com/axis2/services/MyService . At the moment, the admin won't allow the axis2 folder in webapps to be exposed externally for security reasons. Is it possible to access my services using the public URL (i.e. http://external.url.com/axis2/services/MyService ) and if so, how can I do this? I have tried creating a folder in /applications/myexternalfolder/axis and linking that to the axis2 folder in Tomcat/webapps but that didn't quite work as expected. I also tried setting the 'hostname' and 'httpFrontendHostUrl' parameters but no result. Thanks, Kelly
