RE: Virtual Hosting with WAR files
Thanks to all.
This setup has been tested on Apache2+JBoss+mod_jk-1.2.14_for MacOSX. And
am sure it will work on other platforms as well. This setup also handles
Apache related webapps..
Make the required entries in the DNS
webapp.war: Extract the war file using zip and rename the folder
with .war extension. Please put it in your deployment folder.
mod-jk.so: Obtain the modjk.so library file from www.apache.org and place
then in the modules folder.

Re: Virtual Hosting with WAR files
Try reading this, http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/tomcat-vhost.html It's a receipe for setting up tomcat to do virtual hosting and behave more like apache with regard to virtual hosts.

Re: Virtual Hosting with WAR files
If I understand this setup correctly, you would be running one instance of Tomcat for all of your virtual hosts. This has the disadvantage that if one virtual host needs to be restarted, you will need to restart Tomcat for all of your virtual hosts. An alternative is to let Apache handle the virtual hosts and run multiple instances of Tomcat -- one instance per virtual host. This requires multiple mod_jk instances, each communicating across a unique port with an instance of Tomcat. Each Tomcat should be deployed to its own home dir w/ its own CATALINA_HOME pointing to that directory and with each Tomcat given its own start/stop.sh script that sets CATALINA_HOME. This is more complex to set up, and I'm not sure how many separate Tomcats this can handle, but it does allow you to have something like: http://customer_1.com http://customer_2.com ... http://customer_n.com and fix customer_n's problem without impacting other customers using the same box. Since I maintain a box with this setup, I can post sample config files if there is interest.

The fact you are concerned that VirtualHost changing on the fly is an issue suggests you might have a great many VirtualHosts in the first place and to give each one their own JVM would be absurd. As each JVM gets more and more use they will eat up system resources that it wont necessarly be given back to the system. Each Apache instance will end up with a AJP socket open to each TC it would multiply up the socket usage, memory usage. All so that you dont have to restart TC for VirtualHost changes. I would much sooner write the code in TC (if its not already been done) to allow Host level configuration changes to take place at runtime. -- Darryl L.
