Hello Robert,

Using Apache web server as reverse proxy using Apache mod_proxy and mod_ajp_proxy module is very simple. I would suggest you to use mod_ajp_proxy instead of mod_jk as mod_jk configuration is very complicated. With mod_ajp_proxy, you don't need any configuration at OFBiz side. You can find more details at [1] and [2].

Thanks,

Raj

hey guys,

i need to get ofbiz on our production server. Till now I developed on my
local computer, so I used the embed tomcat application server within ofbiz.

Our server has tomcat connected with apache http server via mod_jk, because
we have to serve php, html and java sites paralell. To redirect to the
tomcat server for specific domains (defined within the apache virtual hosts
component) we use mod_jk.

now I read within the mailinglist that ofbiz deployment to an external
tomcat server is not that easy and often runs into problems, so I am
wondering how I could us the embed tomcat server paralell to my todays
server configuration.

the problem is, that within the mod_jk module from apache httpd server I
have to specify the "workers.tomcat_home" to connect single requests to with
tomcat. with the embed tomcat server I would have two different tomcat
installations / instances to "talk" with.

what are your experiences, how can I deploy my ofbiz on the production
server? Or is it not that difficult to deploy it to the existing tomcat
installation (in my case its version 7, but I can go to 6 if required or
easier).

thank you in advance,

robert
