I got a config setup that works. I was never able to get the migrations tab to
work, but I did take some hints from the information it presented.
I am running Apple’s Server app on Yosemite. I use Server to generate the site
file. I have these directives in the generated site file:
Include /Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache2.2/apache.conf #I suppose
apache.conf could go anywhere under any name
Redirect 302 /index.html
http://www.foobar.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/foobar.woa
<http://www.foobar.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/foobar.woa>
apache.con, included above, is where the mod_proxy action is as follows:
LoadModule proxy_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_balancer_module libexec/apache2/mod_proxy_balancer.so
ProxyRequests On
ProxyMaxForwards 10000
ProxyVia Full
<Proxy balancer://foobar.woa>
BalancerMember http://www.foobar.com:2001/cgi-bin/WebObjects/foobar.woa
route=foobar_www.foobar.com_2001_1
</Proxy>
ProxyPass /cgi-bin/WebObjects/foobar.woa balancer://foobar.woa
stickysession=woclusteragentid nofailover=On
RequestHeader append x-webobjects-adaptor-version “mod_proxy"
This all works (allowing for any mistakes I made substituting foobar for my
domain. caveat emptor). However, if I add another instance of the app on the
same server and add the corresponding 2nd BalancerMember, ending in
www.foobar.com_2002_2, this config fails. I get to my home screen ok, but when
I initiate an action served by WebObjects I get a session timeout error. I
haven’t figured that out yet.
At least I’m up and running again.
