Apache & Tomcat: ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse

Question

I\'am having troubles configuring Apache and Tomcat, this is the scenario:

I have an Apache Web Server, running and working normally, I can access to this one just typin

Answer 1

Service not available might be coming due to SELinux ,try disabling SE Linux : setenforce 0

Answer 2

Try this:

ProxyPass /prueba/ http://localhost:8009/prueba/
ProxyPassReverse /prueba/ http://localhost:8009/prueba/

and then hit the following URL from browser: http:// localhost/prueba/

note: it is mandatory to add "/prueba/"

Answer 3

ProxyPassReverse defines the URL Apache httpd should rewrite the URLs to, which would redirect to the proxied (hidden) URL. Because of this, you should change your ProxyPassReverse line to something like this:

ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost/prueba/

Answer 4

You stated: I can access typing:

http://localhost:8080/prueba

but the following does not work:

ProxyPass /prueba/ http://localhost:8009/prueba/

8080 != 8009

make sure your port numbers are the same

Answer 5

you may try adding:

ProxyPreserveHost On

From the documentation:

"When enabled, this option will pass the Host: line from the incoming request to the proxied host, instead of the hostname specified in the ProxyPass line.

This option should normally be turned Off. It is mostly useful in special configurations like proxied mass name-based virtual hosting, where the original Host header needs to be evaluated by the backend server."

Answer 6

You have to put

 ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
 ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/

on your apache virtual host

Then you have to uncomment ajp listener in tomcat

<Connector port="8009" enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" protocol="AJP/1.3" />

Then you have to configure host and context path in server.xml
