Reverse proxying in Tomcat / Apache

Hi,

I have this server with Apache and Tomcat installed.

I have a "Tomcat aplication" running, so the URL contains the :8080 port
part.

like http://zbr:8080/contineo

I want to remove the :8080 part of the URL.

I (think) know that a way is configuring reverse proxying in Apache.

I do this in a server i have with Zope (same problem with port part) and
 i have Apache configured like this:

---------------------------------------------
http://localhost:8080/misc_
Proxypass /p_ http://localhost:8080/p_
ProxyPass /
http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.dte.ua.pt:80/plone/VirtualHostRoot/
ProxyPassReverse /
http://localhost:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.dte.ua.pt:80/plone/VirtualHostRoot/
---------------------------------------------

www.dte.ua.pt is Zope running on port 8080, but one only need to type
ww.dte.ua.pt, no need for the port part.

Then, for the pages served by Apache, i make:
Alias /cv /home/vhosts/dte/cv
This gives www.dte.ua.pt/cv

My question is, how can i do the same with Tomcat and Apache ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito

With mod_jk you get that for free (and a lot more), but you have to
learn a bit about its configuration etc.

If you want to stick to mod_proxy, you need to investigate the
attributes proxyName, proxyPort and scheme in the docs for the
connectors and then set them inside server.xml.
