Re: RemoteHostValve for infinite domains? Patch submit question...

hmmm, I don't think Engine worksaccording to

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/engine.html
Exactly one *Engine* element MUST be nested inside a
Servicehttp://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/service.htmlelement

I need twoone for requests .domain1.com and one for
.domain2.com where  is infinite combination.

PATCH submission: I am not interested in regular expression matching and I
have seen many posts on users trying to do customer.domain.com, so is
serverName.endsWith(domainName) that much of a performance hit?  This patch
would be great for many applications that just set up wildcard DNS so all
subdomains point to the tomcat ip like basecamp or other products.  Right
now, the problem is we have two apps with two different domains each with
infinite subdomains.

thanks,
Dean

 So, xxx.dev.premonitionx.com will go be routed to

 Engine defaultHost=dev.premonitionx.com

 I will give that a try tonight then.  If it doesn't, I guess I would have
 to write a patch.  I need this feature to badly to be able to do
 companyname.premonitionx.com for any companies that register.

 thanks!!!

 This does not seem to be working though...

   Host name=dev.premonitionx.com  appBase=zrequirements
 unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
 xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false
 Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteHostValve
allow=.*\.dev\.premonitionx\.com/
   /Host

 Do I have this wrong?  How do I get this to work?  Does the name need to
 match the allow or something?


 Remove the valve and set:

  Engine defaultHost=dev.premonitionx.com

 All requests to unknown hosts will be directed to that Host.

So create two Service and Engine elements - or run two instances of Tomcat.

I think that you are right.  Based on the little I know about Java and 
Tomcat and RequestDispatcher, I would suggest a range of possible 
solutions, in my personal order of preference :


1) have a look at the urlrewrite filter at www.tuckey.org.
It may be able to do what you want.

2) use an Apache httpd with mod_rewrite and mod_proxy (or mod_jk) in 
front of Tomcat, as a proxy server listening on the IP address to which 
your hostnames resolve and port 80.
Set up Tomcat to listen on another port (e.g.8080), and configure it 
with one default Host (localhost), and two additional Hosts 
(www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com).
Use Apache's mod_rewrite to rewrite and proxy the calls to one or the 
other Tomcat Host(name), on the base of the domain ending of the 
original request.


3) get two different IP addresses for your server, and start 2 Tomcat 
instances, each one listening on one of these adresses.
Each one would then have a default host, which will answer on all names 
which resolve to that IP.

(Of course then you also need to split your two domains DNS-wise)

There are different variations mixing and matching the above bits and 
pieces.

yes, I have thought through all those actually.  Was just talking about
urlrewrite filter and apache this morning.  Issue with that then is having
to keep their company name in a param of every single redirect seam does
which is not the easiest of things to dothat way, company could be put
in front company.domain.com.

I like the ip idea(except for needing two tomcats).

Two services in tomcat doesn't work as then we would need different ports
which is definintely not something we want.

I decided I am going to go the route of finding that Host matching code
which probably looks up in a map of domain to Host object to route request
to the Host/Engine(*which file is that in so I can jump to it?*), and just
loop through it instead with endsWith.  *hmmm, too bad there is not a
pluggable component to Service or something or whoever owns the lookup like
in server.xml lookupClass=com.alvazan.tomcat.LookupHost or something*?  I
could certainly provide a patch so people could plug into tomcat what they
like based on performance considerations...ie. endsWith loop is not the best
if you have 400 domains on one tomcat.

You don't need 2 tomcats; a connector can be told to listen on a
specific IP...

 Two services in tomcat doesn't work as then we would need different ports
 which is definintely not something we want.

.. in which case you don't need non-standard ports, either.

yes, interesting, unfortunately, I am running our QA and customer demo
machine behind comcast at home so there is only one ip, though it would work

Then you could use the same 2-Engine setup there with 2 local IPs,
one for each Engine, and Apache httpd in front of Tomcat as a proxy.
