HOWTO: apache 1.3.36 + tomcat 4.0.4 + mod_jk on RH 7.2 (first dra
ft)
Hello All -
I hacked together a HOWTO today for apache 1.3.36 + tomcat 4.0.4 + mod_jk on
RH 7.2.
You can find it here:
http://www.johnturner.com/howto/apache-tomcat-howto.html
Comments and suggestions are welcome, I will be revising and updating it as
needed. It doesn't currently cover virtual hosts, and I know that is
something that is getting a lot of attention.
I'm going to get one together for IIS and tomcat as well, to add to the
others that are out there. I noticed the Galatea Flashguides link has been
down lately, so I want to try and keep as much information as possible
available even though I don't use Windows for servers.

I'd try something with either
<Location "/intranet1">
<Directory "/drives/a/webapps/intranet1">
You might have to play around with a few different similar values and
where the lines are placed in your httpd.conf file.
Also, is there any kind of rewriting, or aliasing going on? That
might change what values you have to use in the above directives.
(That was true in my situation, and I had to try a few different
things before I found something that worked.)
Also, in your Connector tag in tomcat's server.xml, you may need to
add the attribute tomcatAuthentication="false", e.g.:
<!-- Define an AJP 1.3 Connector on port 8009 -->
<Connector className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.Ajp13Connector"
port="8009" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" tomcatAuthentication="false"/>
I needed to add that in order to have Tomcat use the authenticated
user value from Apache (and then it showed up in the logs -- in one of
your earlier messages, you showed some lines from the logs where the
user showed up on one line but not another). You might try this
first, actually, that could be your problem.

RE: Apache Authentication for Tomcat

Milt,
Let me lay out the setup here -- Apache is setup to host multiple Virtual
Hosts. Such that...
http://intranet1/
Has a docbase of /drives/a/webapps/intranet1
http://intranet2/
Has a docbase of /drives/a/webapps/intranet2
etc...
So how could I use the <Location> tag and not affect the other Virtual
hosts. I simply want to force authentication for the virtual host
"intranet1" only. I figured adding a <Directory> tag for
"/drives/a/webapps/intranet1" would do it, but it doesn't.
Suggestions?

Apache Authentication for Tomcat
Posted by Milt Epstein <me...@uiuc.edu>.
This is an addition to a thread from a day or two ago. I didn't pay
much attention to it then, because it wasn't something I needed to
worry about -- but things change quickly, and now I do need to worry
about it :-). Anyway, it was a thread started by Josh Landin, with
contributions from Jacob Kjome and John Turner (and others). Josh was
having some trouble trying to get Apache to handle authentication on
some resources that were to be handled by Tomcat. Here is one of the
later messages in the thread from Jacob Kjome:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=102805925323917&w=2
I'm not sure Josh fully appreciated what Jacob was getting at in it.
Basically, Directory and Location directives can be used similarly,
but Directory is used for actual directories in the filesystem, while
Location is used for URLs (URL prefixes, i.e. virtual directories, I
guess). I had to do something similar, and I got it working, but it
took playing around with the URL specified in the Location directive
to do so. So anyone, my main reason for posting this is to suggest to
Josh that he try using a Location directive, but play around with the
URL in it to get the behavior he desires. It'd be helpful to consider
what URLs he wants to have the Location directive applied to.
