[users@httpd] Apache ReverseProxy for JavaWebStart Application.

Hi,
I have java web start application running in my Jboss Application server.
I have configured the reverse proxy configuration for my JavaWeb start application as shown below. <VirtualHost *:85>
Servername public.example.com
ProxyRequests Off

ProxyPass                 “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”
ProxyPassReverse “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”
</VirtualHost>


I see that my web start application is not getting proxied and the JNLP file launched the application using my application server host name and port. But the other web applications which are running in the same Jboss application server JVM instance are getting proxied and the urls are always the apache urls.
How should i achieve to make it reverse proxied to the apache for my java web start application. ? I heard that there is a directive called ProxyPreserveHost to be turned ON will help the Java web start application to proxy, but there are issues with this where if there are any ReverseProxy configurations for third party applications in the same VirtualHost, those applications are not getting proxied and giving 404 errors. 
Please provide the details how i could achieve.
ThanksKiran

This is the actual configuration that i have tried
 <VirtualHost *:85>
Servername public.example.com
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass                 “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”ProxyPassReverse “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”Substitute "s|http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb/|http://public.example.com:85/ServicesWeb/|i"</VirtualHost>

 Thanks Rick for your reply. 
I am trying to understand your reply.

The JNLP file that generates dynamically when we launch the client has some urls for the same java web start application, those urls should be the apache url's instead of the application server urls which is not happening when the JNLP file generated dyamically. 
As i mentioned in my first email, if i use the ProxyPreserveHost ON, then the generated JNLP file has the apache host name urls, this way it works, but the other problem i have is, the third party applications that are reverse proxied in the same virtual host configuration are not working because of ProxyPreserveHost. 
So, are you saying that we should be able to achieve this using mod_substitute module to tell JNLP to send traffic back to Apache on the fly without using the ProxyPreserveHost turned ON?
I have given a try as as shown below, but the generated JNLP is starting the application with the application server url. Please see the screen shot attached.

It sounds like the client is never sending the traffic to Apache (per the JNLP), so you aren’t able to touch it until you first tell the client to send it there.  You can either serve that file statically with the changes already present, or use mod_substitute to modify it on the fly.

Rick,
I also tried placing the Proxy configuration inside the Location block as well, but it didn't work.
 <VirtualHost *:85>
Servername public.example.com

ProxyRequests Off<Location "/ServicesWeb">
ProxyPass               “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”ProxyPassReverse   “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”Substitute "s|http://localhost:8080/|http://public.example.com:85/|i"</Location>
</VirtualHost>

Please find the attached launch.jnlp file that gets generated that has the urls generated with the application server urls instead of apache urls. Meanwhile i will go through the FilterDeclare/FilterProver/FilterChain.
But tell about using ProxyPreserveHost is solving the issue, but having Proxy for third party applications are not working. Do you have any idea on that, why ProxyPreserveHost works if the apache and application server are in the box, but not for applications running in different box?


Please reply.
ThanksKiran

You’ll have to piece the non-JNLP stuff together yourself, but I looked at my config and the JNLP I changed does not have http:// in it.  With this module, you are doing a dumb string replace anywhere you see that pattern in a response body.  So, you should probably put that in a location block (to avoid processing all the unrelated content) , and then look at that particular JNLP file with wget or something, to make sure you are doing the replace on the correct string, much like if you were doing a perl/sed text substitution from a command line.  You might also need to use FilterDeclare/FilterProver/FilterChain to get your request to mod_substitute, or that might just be an optimization we did.
 
  
 
Good luck.

Hi,
 
  
 
I have java web start application running in my Jboss Application server.
 
  
 
I have configured the reverse proxy configuration for my JavaWeb start application as shown below.
 
<VirtualHost *:85>
 
Servername public.example.com
ProxyRequests Off
 
ProxyPass                 “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”
ProxyPassReverse “/ServicesWeb”      “http://localhost:8080/ServicesWeb”
 
</VirtualHost>
 
  
 
  
 
I see that my web start application is not getting proxied and the JNLP file launched the application using my application server host name and port. But the other web applications which are running in the same Jboss application server JVM instance are getting proxied and the urls are always the apache urls.
 
  
 
How should i achieve to make it reverse proxied to the apache for my java web start application. ? I heard that there is a directive called ProxyPreserveHost to be turned ON will help the Java web start application to proxy, but there are issues with this where if there are any ReverseProxy configurations for third party applications in the same VirtualHost, those applications are not getting proxied and giving 404 errors.
 
  
 
Please provide the details how i could achieve.
 
  
 
Thanks

Thanks Rick for your reply. 
I am trying to understand your reply.

The JNLP file that generates dynamically when we launch the client has some urls for the same java web start application, those urls should be the apache url's instead of the application server urls which is not happening when the JNLP file generated dyamically. 
As i mentioned in my first email, if i use the ProxyPreserveHost ON, then the generated JNLP file has the apache host name urls, this way it works, but the other problem i have is, the third party applications that are reverse proxied in the same virtual host configuration are not working because of ProxyPreserveHost. 
So, are you saying that we should be able to achieve this using mod_substitute module to tell JNLP to send traffic back to Apache on the fly without using the ProxyPreserveHost turned ON?
Please update me on this.
