Hi Gavin,
It should not be difficult to do it on Ubuntu. I will suggest you to use
Apache mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp. You just need to configure your
virtual host and you don't need to change any thing OFBiz side. Wiki
page you mentioned have pretty much every thing you need to do.
Ubuntu Apache web server structure is different than other Linux
distributions such as RedHat. Virtual hosts in Ubuntu are configured in
/etc/apache2/site-available and /etc/apache2/site-enabled. "a2ensite".
To enable modules you can use "a2enmod" command line utility. Apache
module configuration files are in /etc/apache2/mod-enabled and
/etc/apache2/mod-available/
So steps to get the job done are:
1. Create your virtual host in /etc/apache2/site-available folder
following the instruction on wiki page.
2. Enable the required modules using he commands mentioned above. You
will need mod_proxy, mod_proxy_ajp and may be mod_rewrite.
3. Enable your virtual host using a2ensite <virtual host file name>
4. Restart the Apache web server.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi
I am battling to get Ofbiz to serve pages to Apache. I looked at the
documentation but am non-the-wiser. The installation on Linux Ubuntu works
fine for serving pages through port:8080. But when I try to get it to work
with port:80, that's when the problems start.
This is my setup:
. Ubuntu 8.x
. Apache2
The documentation
https://cwiki.apache.org/OFBIZ/faq-tips-tricks-cookbook-howto.html#FAQ-Tips-
Tricks-Cookbook-HowTo-HTTPD and the apaches config files are not necessarily
the same. For example http.conf in the Ubuntu version of Apache2 is empty.
Help!
What Apache files do I need to change/adjust to configure the VirtualHost
and SSL. My app is deployed in the hot-deploy component - and I would like
m,y visitors to use www.example.com.
Thanks in advance.
Gavin
