Thanks for the help,
I´m trying to understand what has been said regarding apache2´s proxy
modules....
Ubuntu 10.04
Geoserver 2.1.1 and installed from a war file
Tomtcat6
Geoserver_data_dir = /home/myname/data
Apache2 Document root = www/var
Goal: enable php in my webapps (and in doing so maybe get rid of the :8080 in
the address)
"Rather than serve your entire data dir through Apache, I think it would be
better to serve just the www/ directory"
- so I leave my GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR where it is...under "/home/myname/data",
right?
"then use Apache's mod_proxy like:
Alias /geoserver/www/ /var/www/mydomain/htdocs/
>ProxyPass /geoserver http://localhost:8080/geoserver";
>
>
>
>
>Where do I set this in apache2? I have read that allias´s should be set

however the ProxyPass is set somewhere else?

Could anyone tell me in simple steps how and where I would do this in ubuntu?

thanks,

Rather than serve your entire data dir through Apache, I think it would be
better to serve just the www/ directory - no need to put up your configuration
files complete with database passwords. You could then use Apache's mod_proxy
like:
Alias /geoserver/www/ /var/www/mydomain/htdocs/
>ProxyPass /geoserver http://localhost:8080/geoserver
That should keep the relative paths the same so your JavaScript application
should not even see the difference (I haven't tried this personally so I may
have botched the configuration above, but I hope you get the general idea.)
Then you can enable PHP for the htdocs directory.

For your javascript to work, everything needs to use the same host and port so
you want to proxy geoserver through apache. Enable mod_proxy and use something
like this in your virtualhost

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
