Hi Helix84,
Thank you very much for your answer, and have much success on DSpace!
I forgot to say that:
- www.ourDomain.mainDomain.edu is under IP x.y.z.w and have a specific
content
- our DSpace installation is under IP a.b.c.d,
- tomcat defines default path to xmlui and declares oai, jspui, and so on
in docBase
- tomcat is running on port 80 following the steps here:
http://thelowedown.wordpress.com/2010/08/17/tomcat-6-binding-to-a-privileged-port-on-debianubuntu/
then, if we call http://a.b.c.d we receive our dspace installation in xmlui.
But, my brain doesn't get to visualize what is Tomcat configuration and
what is dspace configuration, or even ourDomain configuration to call
http://x.y.z.w/friendlyNameForOurDSpaceApplication
and receive the content of http://a.b.c.d
Where I declare the directory? Like a virtual host on Tomcat?
But, the test below didn't work:
<Host name="www.ourDomain.mainDomain.edu" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"
appBase="/dspace/webapps">
<!-- Trying aliases -->
<Alias>ourDomain.mainDomain.edu <http://www.ourDomain.mainDomain.edu>
</Alias>
<Alias>ourDomain.mainDomain.edu <http://www.ourDomain.mainDomain.edu>/
friendlyNameForOurDSpaceApplication</Alias>
<!-- Define a new context path for all DSpace web apps -->
[...]
</Host>
Can you help to clear my mind?
Thanks in advance,
Josi Pérez
