Don't know about mod_jk, but if you are not using any particular functionality
of the module other than tranferring the request to a backend server, you might
just as well use reverse proxying.
I would think something like this would work:
Listen *:80
RewriteEngine On
UseCanonicalName Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
# Grab the host name (without the domain)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([^\.]+)
# Does the first path element match the host name ?
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/%1
# Proxy the request to the backend server prefixing the path with the host name.
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://localhost:8280/%1$1 [P]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://localhost:8280$1 [P]
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8280
-ascs

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Virtual Host Configuration Question
I'm trying to configure an Apache 2.x installation to use two virtual hosts
using name based virtual host definitions. I have Tomcat 5.x running two
different web applications and I want to map particular server names to
particular web apps. For example, if I were talking to Tomcat directly I would
do this:
http://localhost:8280/app1/*
and
http://localhost:8280/app2/*
What I want to do is configure Apache so the URL's would look like this:
http://app1.foo.bar/* (where * may be nothing, or some path supported by the
app)
and
http://app2.foo.bar/* (where * may be nothing, or some path supported by the
app)
The closest thing that works for me are the following URLs:
http://app1.foo.bar/app1/*
and
http://app2.foo.bar/app2/*
I'm using mod_jk to to the connection between Apache and Tomcat. My virtual
host configurations look something like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName app1
DocumentRoot ... tomcat web app directory ...
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/$ /app1
JkMount /app1 tomcat1
JkMount /app1/* tomcat1
</virtualHost>
What am I missing?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
