Public bug reported:
While fixing a mod_proxy_ajp issue in apache, I had to come up with a
test for it. Turns out that test could be easily transformed into a DEP8
test. The MP was
https://code.launchpad.net/~ahasenack/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+git/apache2/+merge/380324,
but in case it disappears, I'll paste the manual procedure below.
sudo apt install tomcat9 apache2 tomcat9-examples
sudo a2enmod proxy_ajp
# edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf and add this line:
ProxyPass "/examples" "ajp://localhost:8009/examples"
sudo systemctl restart apache2
# edit /etc/tomcat9/server.xml, locate the "Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port
8009" section and define the connector like this:
<Connector protocol="AJP/1.3"
address="0.0.0.0"
secret="supersecret"
port="8009" />
# if we didn't add a secret to the connector configuration, tomcat9
would fail to start it, because a secret is mandatory by default since
9.0.13.
# restart tomcat9
sudo systemctl restart tomcat9
# Let's confirm tomcat9 is working
curl http://localhost:8080
# And the examples page which is what we will proxy through apache later:
curl http://localhost:8080/examples/
# we want to access that via apache, but it won't work now because we didn't
configure the same secret on apache's side. You will get back a nasty 403:
curl http://localhost/examples/
<!doctype html><html lang="en"><head><title>HTTP Status 403 ......
# now let's add the secret keyword to apache's /etc/apache2/sites-
enabled/000-default.conf:
ProxyPass "/examples" "ajp://localhost:8009/examples"
secret=supersecret
# apache2 will fail to restart, as it doesn't understand the "secret" parameter
sudo systemctl restart apache2
# update to the apache packages from the ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ahasenack/apache2-mod-ajp-secret -y -u
sudo apt install apache2 -y
# Try the examples page via apache again, and this time we get the examples
through apache
curl http://localhost/examples/
