Re: Virtual hosts and Threads
When starting a new thread (ie sending a message to the list about a
new topic) please do not reply to an existing message and change the
subject line. To many of the list archiving services and mail clients
used by list subscribers this makes your new message appear as part
of the old thread. This makes it harder for other users to find
relevant information when searching the lists.
This is known as thread hijacking and is behaviour that is frowned
upon on this list. Frequent offenders will be removed from the list.
The correct procedure is to create a new message with a new subject.
This will start a new thread.

Hi All
I have setup virtual hosts for 3 apps with virtual hosts config as
follows. These virtual hosts are first handled by Apache and mod_jk. My
apps have scheduler and automated mailing services.
Host name=vhost.domain.com debug=0 appBase=”deploy”
unpackWARs=true
Aliaswww.vhost.domain.com/Alias
Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger
directory=${jboss.server.home.dir}/log prefix=vhost_log1.
suffix=.log timestamp=true/
Context path=
docBase=${jboss.server.home.dir}/deploy/application.war debug=0
reloadable=true/
/Host
This config is mailing the same mail 7 time. Further I noticed that there
were 7 service started of the same kind. Querying the developer, he said
that he had coded the apps to have the mail sent once every week. The
mails are sent once every week but as said 7 copies of the same mail is
delivered.
The request for the app results in page not found if I follow the
following config, even thought there is no error in startup.
Context path=application
docBase=${jboss.server.home.dir}/deploy/application.war debug=0
reloadable=true/
Can you guys have any idea on this and help me troubleshoot ???
Regards Thanks

Re: Virtual Hosts
I, too, am having problems configuring virtual hosts, in a Tomcat 5.0.28
server, with no Apache, on a Windows XP machine. I've studied the
documentation and am puzzled by one area in particular: the definition
of 'appBase'. For example, in the text below you suggest putting this in
the Host ... section within server.xml:
appBase=deploy
In a Windows environment, what is deploy? Is it a directory within the
tomcat installation? If so, where? I can't see where this location is
defined, it just seems to be mentioned in server.xml, in other examples
as well as this one. Obviously there's something I'm not
understanding...

Configure Host elements inside your Engine. Create a folder

Re: Virtual Hosts
Mahesh Thanks for your help. I think something I don't understand is: what's its root of the virtual server's appbase? I have tomcat (5.0.28) installed in c:\Tomcat 5.0, with the usual set of directories within that - bin, common, conf, logs, server, shared, temp, webapps, work. I don't have a development environment at all. I have applications installed within webapps, using the defaulthost (localhost) and they work fine. Here's a sample of my server.xml: Engine defaultHost=localhost name=Catalina Host appBase=webapps name=localhost Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger suffix=.txt prefix=localhost_log. timestamp=true/ Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve fileDateFormat=-MM-dd suffix=.txt/ /Host Host appBase=webapps/some_host name=some_host.com Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger suffix=.txt prefix=some_host_log. timestamp=true/ Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve fileDateFormat=-MM-dd suffix=.txt/ /Host Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger suffix=.txt prefix=catalina_log. timestamp=true/ Realm className=org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm/ /Engine I've created a directory within webapps called 'some_host' and within that is a simple jsp, a 'welcome' script. I know that the server, and an external PC, know (from use of Hosts files) that some_host.com is mapped to the server's IP address, and I can successfully ping that address. But I'm not getting the jsp to run! - I just get a 'page unavailable' response. There are no errors in the startup log so I think it must be that Tomcat doesn't know where to look for the welcome.jsp, which suggests that specifying appbase = webapps/some_host isn't working.

There is a default webapp per host, not per Tomcat. (However, the path attribute must not be used unless the Context/ entry is in server.xml, and that is strongly discouraged these days.) To quote from the Tomcat server reference doc for the path attribute: The context path of this web application, which is matched against the beginning of each request URI to select the appropriate web application for processing. All of the context paths within a particular Host must be unique. If you specify a context path of an empty string (), you are defining the default web application for this Host, which will process all requests not assigned to other Contexts. The value of this field must not be set except when statically defining a Context in server.xml, as it will be infered from the filenames used for either the .xml context file or the docBase.

Re: Virtual hosts with standalone tomcat 5.5.9
You can't do it that way. At least the testing. You either have to set up DNS to resolve both names back to the IP or put entries in your host file. When you do a request to the server the header holds the URL and when you use the localhost that is what is sent in the header. Tomcat then will use the first host since there is no match. And that is why www.mysite.com works. It is the first one listed. Add the entries to your host file and try the actual URLs listed in the server.xml, then if all else is right, it will work.

This is (or at least, should be) true all around: the SSL negotiation takes place at a lower protocol level than the HTTP request that specifies which virtual host the client wants to see. Yet, it's during the negotiation phase that client software compares the requested hostname to the CN value of the cert. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Virtual Hosts and SSL
Some posters misunderstand virtual hosts. The first step in creating a virtual host is to assign it a unique IP address and host name. The second step is to configuring the machine's ethernet adapter to have several IP addresses. This is done on Unix/Linux by creating additional devices with the : syntax and on Windows by adding them to the config dialog box. The third step is to configure the web server to know about all this. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When I set up an additional ip to use port 443 I get an error 400 (bad request). I'm not sure what you mean by virtual host. AFAIK there are generally two uses of the phrase. The first is to refer to a single web server answering to more than one domain name _without_ using one IP address per domain name. The second is to offer a customer seemingly full access to a server to run their website, without having one separate physical box per customer. Some solutions go all the way and try to make the customer feel like they have root on the box. Some solutions just provide the customer a greater-than-end-user level of access to tweaking the configuration of their webserver, cgi scripts and database. If you're asking the first, I don't know if my recent learning experience with Apache Virtual hosting will be relevant, but it may be give you some insight into what you're doing. It may only go for tomcat used in an apache/modjk/tomcat setup. Or it may not be at all relevant to tomcat, whether stand-alone or with apache. I recently re-installed my apache server, and in the process set up apache virtual hosting. I learned that it's almost impossible to set up SSL with virtual hosts with apache, you need to use IP-based hosting if you want to serve multiple domains from one apache installation via SSL, without any hitches. That said, if all you really care about is encrypting the connection, non-IP based (i.e. virtual) multiple domain hosting is still tolerable. Basically the SSL cert that's served by the server will match the default virtual host (the first one defined in the configuration). Requests to the other domains on the SSL port will hit the same SSL server and get served the SSL cert for the default domain. The browser will squawk because the Cert doesn't match the domain. If you're *really* security-conscious, this is a problem, since there's an opportunity for a man-in-the-middle attack. Somebody could slip the browser a bogus Cert and proxy requests to your server, eavesdropping on them all the while. But if you're just providing some encrypted web-access to an application, you may not mind. Security is all about trade-offs. -- Steven J.

Re: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat
Antonio, In fact, cap it at 10 and watch the app dring to a halt before it even gets going. This is a pretty compelling example. If the pool is drying up, they're definately screwing up. It is. But developers may reply: You are using less connections than those specified in (the contract) / (the manual) / (fill in yourself). I thinks we're misunderstanding each other. I think that when the pool is capped, and the connections are never returned, you get to a point where the pool refuses to give you a new connection, no matter how long you wait. This is a pretty good idea for some basic debugging. You should only have to demonstrate to your devs that you can deadlock their server by capping the connection pool. After that, it's their problem, right? :) With the proposal, you demonstrate they have a connection leak, which is the real problem. Once you showed them they had ONE connection leak, you can urge them to dig for other connection leaks themselves. But, of course, the idea about the deadlock seems really good also. If I understood, what you mean is: If you set the connection pool size too low for the app, it should crash at will (or better, show an 'unavailable' screen), but it should continue working as soon as load permits it. Am I wrong? I'm thinking that the connections are added to the pool upon request (from his observationa, it looks like the 10 pre-allocated connections are always ignored), and then never returned. The pool remembers the pre-allocated ones, plus the ones it created on-the-fly. I think that if he caps the connection pool size at 25, it will only take 20 requests to lock up the server for want of a DB connection. Try setting the pool size to 11 and see if you lock up after one request ;) -chris signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Re: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat
Here is some more information on the problem. From a developer: According to the document that the link below refers to, a single instance of Tomcat will have multiple JVMs, where each JVM represents a virtual host. The following link clearly states this virtual host concept as it applies to Tomcat. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.2-doc/uguide/tomcat_ug.html (please refer the virtual host section).} As per the above document, each JVM corresponding to a virtual host contains a database connection pool object. Hence the connection pool that has been implemented seems to be in-line with the virtual host definition in the above document. Also, we are also using the same concept of DBCP in our applications. The difference in our case is that we have chosen to use Oracle that also uses the same DataSource class. OK, it is my understanding that the problem of a new JVM for each virtual host was fixed in 4.X. True? I RT'ed some more FM on 4.2 and found that the Tomcat developers suggest that the connection code be placed in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib. I passed that to the developers and: As regards putting the flood.jar in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib, we tried it and the behavior was no different. Is there anyone running tomcat with virtual hosts and do you also have this problem? It is a little hard to beleive this is so difficult to implement but hasn't come up before.

RE: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat
I have a sneaking suspicion that someone is still blowing smoke. ;) Either 1) the oracle pool has a leak 2) oracle server has a problem closing connections 3) you have a leak in the application. For problem 3), I find the DBCP's ability to 'tattle' on bad JSP pages/classes invaluable in tracking down this type of behaviour. Here's a (big) snip. I've removed a bunch of parameters, as they would change for your app. But the key ones are included at the bottom. Context path= docBase=/home/webhome/buzz/ defaultSessionTimeout=60 reloadable=true Resource name=jdbc/BuzzDB auth=Container type=javax.sql.DataSource / ResourceParams name=jdbc/BuzzDB parameter namefactory/name valueorg.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory/value /parameter !-- Max number of dB connections.

With the above config, this happens in 20 seconds (though it won't be logged until the *next* access of the pool). I'm not familiar with the Oracle drivers, but hopefully they have something similar? The reason I think your developers are blowing smoke... You are using 4.1.x and they are quoting 3.x docs.

Re: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat
Antonio,
And bad. Every time I restart, Tomcat loses the state information for
established login sessions. Customer don't like that.
That (with a high probability) is because some objects they store in
sessions are not Serializable. IOW, they violate the Servlet Specification.
I'm just curious: is this actually a violation of the servlet spec? The
API seems to indicate that you can put anything in the session that you
want. I don't think it has to be Serializable... thought I was wrong
before, once ;)
Tried that. Capped it at 35 and the webserver stopped servicing any
DB request as soon as the pool reached 35. This is why I believe the
pool management is faulty and/or something is hogging all the
connections.
I share your belief. Let's try to prove it. Raise it to some other
figure, and see if the same happens again. Ask them how big should the
figure be.
In fact, cap it at 10 and watch the app dring to a halt before it even
gets going. This is a pretty compelling example. If the pool is drying
up, they're definately screwing up.
Oracle 9i takes 16M per connections. So Oracle claims. I've tested
it as high as 20M. I generally use 18M as a guideline
I've heard (not a DBA, though) that Oracle 9i has a mode where it does
not spawn a process per connection, but uses threads instead (?) and in
that mode it uses far less resources. This way, we have some modest
Oracle servers hjandling up to 300 simultaneous (mostly idle) connections.
It depends on the size of your rollback segments and the number of
transactions you are doing. If you do big transactions, each DB
connection (thread *or* process) wioll need a big chunk of memory. I
wouldn't kill yourself trying to figure out how to reduce this process
size. Fix the real problem, which is poor connection management.
I'll mention DBCP and see what happens
DBCP has a nice removeAbandoned feature.
Otherwise, you can use this code (tweak it to your needs) to track where
connections are opened and closed from:
(code not tested at all)
// open method signature
// code that opens the connection (and stores it in conn variable)
try {
throw new Exception(Pool Debugger says: Connection + conn +
opened:);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I've seen code like this before. Many people think you can't get a stack
trace unless you throw an exception. Not so. All you have to do is
instantiate it, and you get the stack trace. So, the following will
produce identical results, without the nasty try/throw/catch:
new Exception(Pool debugged says: ...).printStackTrace();
I would recommend explicitly printing out the hashCode of the Connection
object itself, just in case the connection doesn't include any
identifying information in it's .toString method.
Then you can...
#!/bin/sh
# Filter pool debugger statements.
This is a pretty good idea for some basic debugging. You should only
have to demonstrate to your devs that you can deadlock their server by
capping the connection pool. After that, it's their problem, right? :)

Re: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat
Stephen, I am having a problem with tomcat opening up up a number of connections to an oracle server that never get closed. This causes the number of open connections to build up over time and, eventually, causes the oracle server to use all of its swap. That's not good :( Restarting tomcat clers this up. That's good! :) I think there is a problem with some jsp's opening connections and then not closig them but the developers claim (surprise) their code is clean. It's tough to make sure that database connections (and statements, and result sets) get cleaned up in JSPs, unless you have a talented JSP author. (Most JSP authors aren't that talented, unless they are also good Java developers, in which case they would have implemented the DB access in a servlet and just used the JSP for display. Anywho...) If the number of connections keeps going up and never tapers off or stops altogether, then something is misconfigured with your connection pools. Even if the engineers say that the pages are clean, you should protect the app server (and the DB server) from being swamped by capping the number of DB connections allowed. Ever. Any decent DB connection pool lets you specify this kind of thing. You should set that value to something reasonable. You can get away with a suprisingly low number of these. (I was consulting on a big project that was a somewhat DB intensive, web-based app. They had the app server configured to accept 75 simultaneous connections. They also set the db connection pool size to 75. I asked why and they basically said so that every HTTP connection can get a db connection. Duh. I talked to management and make them put in debugging information to find out how many connections were ever in use simultaneously. Seven. (Suckers). They also didn't realize that Oracle takes like 10MB per connection on the backend, and they had six physical app servers running two separate copies of the application. That's 75 * 6 * 2 * 10MB = 900MB. Good thing the DB server had 3.5GB of RAM, but still...) The explanation they give is: The increase in number of connections beyond the CACHE_MAX_SIZE setting in the app1.properties file is due to the private labeled sites. For each virtual host (private labeled site), there will be a separate JVM running the Tomcat web server space.

I don't know tomcat near as well as I do Apache but this sounds like someone is blowing smoke. This isn't too outrageous, actually. If each webapp has its own connection pool, and they are configured to have at maximum, say, 10 connections, then you'll probably end up with 10 * webapp_count connections to the database server, regardless of the number of Tomcats/JVMs are running. If Tomcat is configured to handle the connection to the database (say, through a Realm and a JNDI-configured connection pool), you might be able to share connections between all of the webapps. If you solve the private-labelling problem by using multiple webapps, but through the same database, this approach seems like an excellent idea; configure Tomcat to provide a JNDI-based connection pool, and then configure the separate applications to use that pool. That way, you can control the total number of connections across all private labels, instead of having them be independent. If I run ps on the server it looks to me like there is only one instance and if I restart tomcat, _all_ virtual hosts are restarted. Yeah, then it's definately separate webapps running on a single instance of Tomcat. Try to pitch the above idea to your engineers and see what they say (probably something like it's fine the way it is!). I don't care who is right or wrong but I do want to clear up this problem. Any ideas? If you need any more information, just ask. I think I'd need to know if the connections were really never going away. Use netstat to find out what state they're in. If they all say ESTABLISHED, then you've got a connection leak. If many of them say TIME_WAIT or something like that, then you might have a problem with either the client or the server not properly hanging up the phone. If it's the former, then yell at your engineers. Cap that connection pool size at something reasonable, like ten connections. After that, the application starves. That's good for the app server and the database, while bad for your application. You can use Jakarta Commons' DBCP as your connections pool. It has some wonderful debug options, like giving you a stack trace for the code that obtained the connection if that connection isn't returned within a certain amount of time. That can save days or weeks of code reviews. If your connections are in TIME_WAIT, see how long they stay that way. Waiting 5-10 minutes for a connection like that to get

Your developers may be right in the end but with wrong arguments. With virtual hosting or several webapps you have just one jvm. But each webapp has it's own classloader. If the pool is loaded by the wepapp classloader you will have one instance of the pool for each webapp. -Original Message- From: Stephen Carville [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 29, 2004 5:48 PM To: Tomcat Users Subject: Virtual Hosts with Apache and Tomcat The increase in number of connections beyond the CACHE_MAX_SIZE setting in the app1.properties file is due to the private labeled sites.

Yes, in general you need a VirtualHost in httpd.conf for all virtual hosts in server.xml.

Re: virtual hosts - tomcat 4
Hello, Tomcat gets a little *confused* when you have hosts at different levels of the same tree. What to do is to change your default ROOT context to webapps/default and add your myapp one to webapps/myapp Then treat these as you would a webapps directory.

Re: virtual hosts - tomcat 4
Well, at the risk of confusing the issue, I don't think I would rename the ROOT folder in CATALINA_HOME/webapps. That might be asking for trouble, as the ROOT folder is a special folder treated differently by Tomcat in some cases than other web application roots. If it were me, I would leave it alone. In the example I posted, not only is the ROOT folder non-existent, the location of the site/application folders isn't even CATALINA_HOME/webapps. It works for me, I've tried it so far with 6 virtual hosts (c:\websites\site1, ...\site2, ...\site3, and so on).

Re: virtual hosts - tomcat 4
OK, good luck. My point was that you had to rename the ROOT folder because your websites are in CATALINA_HOME/webapps. Move the Host's appBase outside of CATALINA_HOME, and you won't have to rename the ROOT folder, because there won't be any ROOT folder to rename. And Tomcat will be happy because it will still have its ROOT folder in CATALINA_HOME/webapps when it needs it. Let us know if you have any more problems.

re: virtual hosts and manager app
Thanks. Of course setting up this e-mail caused me to rethink the issue allowing me to find the answer. The problem was in communication of the manager / admin application with apache. The fix/workaround was to enable the coyote http 1.1. connector on port 8080 for the service (I was enabling a separate apache ajp connector for each service and not the 8080 port. Does this mean that an apache service connector can only speak to a single application context?

It seems like I solved your issues a few days ago and have a few new ones to work out. If you need any more help, send me a message directly and I will see how I can help. However, it seems so far that the answers you have already got will work. My issue is a little different, I have 3 virtual hosts and 3 different web-apps defined under httpd.conf, and I have 3 different Host and Context tags in server.xml. The JSP pages ONLY work with the last web-app defined. What I mean by 'works' is that the JSP pages get compiled into servlets, and then get served correctly by performing the business logic. Any other web-apps defined in the httpd.conf file do not work. What I mean by they 'do not work' is that the JSP pages do not get compiled into servlets, and do not execuet the business logic. Instead the JSP code shows up clear as day as if you were opening a text file. This is a major security problem, and I thought it was fixed. I've posted this issue at least on 3 different occasions now with no answers from anyone. It could be because this issue only happens on a Windows platform? I guess my next step is to test out this problem on Red Hat 8.0 Linux. If I can duplicate the same problem on that platform, I bet it will expedite a fix. Of course, if this isn't a bug in Tomcat, then I'd expect someone would point out that my configuration is wrong ... but that hasn't happened yet. Thanks.

RE: Virtual Hosts
In server.xml there is an element named Host with a parameter named name with a value of localhost. Within that Host element is a Context for /examples. In order to get mydomain.com/examples to work, you either: 1) Use Alias within Host to alias mydomain.com to localhost or 2) copy the localhost Host element, change name's value to mydomain.com, and then within that new Host element, setup a Context for whatever you want.

Re: Virtual Hosts
And make sure both your domains are setup correctly in /etc/hosts (assuming you're on a 'nix). One problem I've seen is that if you don't have the /etc/hosts correct, Tomcat will default to one of the Hosts, just like Apache will default to the first VirtualHost block.

Re: Virtual Hosts
Hi Chris, I am afraid we have two seperate issues. It seems like I solved your issues a few days ago and have a few new ones to work out. If you need any more help, send me a message directly and I will see how I can help. However, it seems so far that the answers you have already got will work. My issue is a little different, I have 3 virtual hosts and 3 different web-apps defined under httpd.conf, and I have 3 different Host and Context tags in server.xml. The JSP pages ONLY work with the last web-app defined. What I mean by 'works' is that the JSP pages get compiled into servlets, and then get served correctly by performing the business logic. Any other web-apps defined in the httpd.conf file do not work. What I mean by they 'do not work' is that the JSP pages do not get compiled into servlets, and do not execuet the business logic. Instead the JSP code shows up clear as day as if you were opening a text file. This is a major security problem, and I thought it was fixed. I've posted this issue at least on 3 different occasions now with no answers from anyone. It could be because this issue only happens on a Windows platform? I guess my next step is to test out this problem on Red Hat 8.0 Linux. If I can duplicate the same problem on that platform, I bet it will expedite a fix. Of course, if this isn't a bug in Tomcat, then I'd expect someone would point out that my configuration is wrong ... but that hasn't happened yet. Thanks.

Re: Virtual Hosts
If your getting these in your apache logs then you don't have Apache configured to call Tomcat. Apache has to configured so that when it sees a URL ending in /examples that it passes it along to Tomcat. For instance, using mod_jk with ajp13 the following would do it: JkMount /examples/* ajp13 This of course would be under the virtual host section for mysite.com So you may have something like: VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80 DocumentRoot /home/httpd/htdocs/mysite ServerName mysite.com JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 JkMount /examples/* ajp13 /VirtualHost Hope this helps.

Re: Virtual Hosts
John, don't worry about it. I got a couple of people who have a similiar configuration (Apache 2.0.43, Tomcat 4.1.18, and Win2k) with the same setup looking into my configuration files. If they can have multiple virtual hosts with multiple contexts working, then it must be something with my configuration. With open source projects the later versions are usually more stable, but the old idiom 'new systems generate new problems' also applies as well. I'll just keep working on this and waiting for these projects to become more stable.

RE: Virtual Hosts
Hi, What exactly would I set that to? Depends on what you want to accomplish. We typically leave it as webapps and specify different (absolute) docBases for individual webapps as necessary. If you have several webapps under the same location, you can change just the appBase to point to that location instead of changing each webapp's docBase attribute. I've got dev.infinity-tech.com as what I want for my website... I want everything served out of /www/docs/dev.infinity-tech.com/ Do you have just one webapp or many? Is that what I would set as my appBase? If you have many webapps, all under /www/docs/dev.infinity-tech.com, and you don't want to set the docBase for each webapp to that location, then yes, you would set the above as your appBase. Also, I'm a bit shaky on what the ROOT context is. It's simply the webapp with no context name. The one that's accessed when the user points his/her browser to your appBase (in the default configuration). If you start changing the appBase and docBases, you can use the ROOT context for other things. Tomcat gives you many ways to specify where the documents for your webapps are located. I assume you've already read the relevant tomcat docs. If not, look at the host reference at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/host.html and the context reference at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/context.html Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics This e-mail, including any attachments, is a confidential business communication, and may contain information that is confidential, proprietary and/or privileged.

The appBase value can be either an absolute path or a relative path -- if it's relative, it's resolved against $CATALINA_HOME. Also, I'm a bit shaky on what the ROOT context is. It's the context that is used if the URL doesn't have a prefix that matches the context path for any other web application. Essentially, it's a webapp with a context path of (zero length string) -- but that's not a legal directory name on most operating systems, so there is explicit code in Tomcat to use ROOT instead.

I'm completely baffled as to how to set up a virtual host in server.xml, I'm not exactly sure how to setup the elements and such to get directories to work. IE, I want a virtual host called dev.infinity-tech.com within there, where JSP's can be launched from the document root of that site (/www/docs/dev.infinity-tech.com) and servlets can be launched from a folder within that directory.

The major conerns are: 1. Delegating to untrusted customers maintenance of their applications without compromising server security. 2. Configuring Apache and Tomcat for virtual hosting. 3. Surviving poorly written web applications installed by customers. This includes fault tolerance and identifying which customer's web application is causing problems. 4. Mimimize the amount of hand holding or config changes the apache and tomcat system administrators have to make. This is written based on my experiences setting up this type of hosting environment on Sun Solaris hardware. Some of this will be specific to Solaris, but in general should work for almost any flavor of Unix. Unix accounts and groups The user tomcat was created for running tomcat, it should be created similar to the nobody account used for running Apache. The tomcat user is assigned to the group tomcat. The tomcat user is a member of group user. The group tomcat was created as the group the user tomcat is assigned to. The group user was created, this is the group customer ftp accounts are assigned to. The tomcat account is a member of this group so that both customers and tomcat can write files in directories assigned to group user. Each customer has their own ftp account which is in group user. There is a webmaster administrator shell account. This account is for your virtual host administrator. The webmaster account is assigned to group user and is also a member of group tomcat. Directory layout The layout of directories is designed to make it as easy as possible for customers to maintain their own web space content and applications. Here is an example of how I do it: The customer is assigned an FTP account which has permission to read their virtual host directory and write to a subset of that. For example, a customer may be assigned the following directory: /export/home/www.customer.com root:other 755 Within that directory are sub directories which the customer can read and/or write. Listed are the directory names, ownership, and mode. www webmaster:user 2775 -- Apache document root directory. Customer and tomcat can both read/write directories and files. logs root:other 755 --- Directory where apache access_log and error_log are placed. We also rotate these logs weekly and use bzip2 to compress any log files older than 5 weeks. Log files less than 5 weeks old are left uncompressed so that they can be used by web statistic software like Analog. Customer can read files in this directory but not write files. tomcat tomcat:tomcat 755 Directory used for the tomcat work and tomcat virtual host logs. Only tomcat can write in this directory. Customer can read files in this directory. tomcat/work tomcat:tomcat 755 - Tomcat work directory for virtual host. Only tomcat can write files. Customer can read files. This allows customer to review java source files generated during a JSP page compile. tomcat/logs tomcat:tomcat 755 -- Tomcat log directory for virtual host. Only tomcat can write files. Customer can read files. This allows the customer to review their virtual host application logs. reports webmaster:tomcat 2775 - Directory I use for placing custom

Hi there ! I'm sorry, I have no knowledge about the webapp connector. You could switch to the mod_jk connector, it has advantages like load balancing and serving only dynamic content. But you have to compile it for yourself to get a version which works which the apache version you have. The compiling is a bit tricky but can be done.

John Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 10:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Virtual Hosts Question Hi, I'm trying to run 2 different versions of Tomcat (3.2.1 and 4.0.3) through 1 Apache (1.3.26). I haven't had much luck running the two modules ApacheModuleJServ and Mod_jk together through Apache with Include statements, actually I'm not even sure if it's possible...? Now I'm going to try setting up a Virtual server on 8080, I'm thinking that the main server on 80 will handle one include statement for Tomcat3.2.1 and the Virtual server on 8080 will handle the include statement for Tomcat4.0.3...Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks for any feedback or any other possible alternatives to setting up 2 Tomcat Versions on 1 Apache. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Virtual Hosts Question
Ahh, that looks like what I may have to do. Thank you both for your help. Since I've got your attention, I've just got one more question. The reason I'm setting up two different versions of Tomcat on my machines, wasn't by choice. We were actually running everything on Tomcat3.2.1 and it was working fine. But in order to stay current, we as a group decided to upgrade to Tomcat4.0.3 and Apache 1.3.26. All of our apps made the switch no problem, except for two of them. For some reason the JSP's would load. The applications setup was exactly the same as what we did with 3.2.1 but for some reason the JSP's wouldn't load with 4.0.3, and no errors were being thrown in the error logs. I tried again with another copy of 4.0.3 and tried with 4.0.1 and still the same results. Have you guys ever heard of such a thing? One of the pages that didn't load, this was all we had on the JSP html headtitleView/Edit Records/title/head %@ include file=include/login.jsp % jsp:include page=include/header_download.jsp flush=true / % request.getRequestDispatcher(servlet/dataedit? + com.mapinfo.jsptags.TagBean.PARAMETER_KEY_NAME + = + com.mapinfo.dataedit.DownloadOracleTableBean.PARAMETER_KEY).include(request, response); % /table /html Thanks again.
