Greetings:
I am looking for help with an issue that I cannot find the answer to on the
web or list-archives. My issue is this:
I use Tomcat 5.5 and jdk 1.5 on linux.
1)I have a custom jsp tag that puts string data in a Session attribute when
the jsp page loads (via pageRequest.getSession().setAttribute("var",value).
2)The jsp page is a form that submits to data to a servlet. The servlet
retrieves the data request.getSession().getAttribute("var") to compare it
with data from another form field.
Under normal deployement with tomcat running on port 8080 and the app at
context /myapp (http://localhost:8080/myapp) the servlet is able to
retrieve the "var" out of the session and read it.
The problem-issue is when I setup the apache/tomcat proxy (http not
modjk).
When I access the application with Apache on port 80 through the proxy on
port 8082 (http://myhost.localhost/myapp), the
request.getSession().getAttribute("var") within the servlet returns null.
When I access the application throgh the proxied port
(http://myhost.localhost:8082/myapp) the session attribute is not null.
Also, when I access the application through port 80, the Tomcat manager
webapp reports double the amount of sessions being created.
Here is the connector setting in sever.xml
<Connector port="8082"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000"
proxyPort="80" disableUploadTimeout="true" />
Here is the host setting in server.xml
<Host name="myhost.localhost" appBase="myhost" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Alias>myhost.localhost.org</Alias>
<Context path="" docBase="/usr/local/tomcat/myhost" />
<Context path="/manager" debug="0" privileged="true"
docBase="${catalina.home}/server/webapps/manager" />
</Host>
Here is the apache virtual host proxy configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName myhost.localhost
DocumentRoot /usr/local/tomcat/myhost
Options Indexes
ProxyPass / http://myhost.localhost:8082/myhost/
ProxyPassReverse / http://myhost.localhost:8082/myhost/
</VirtualHost>
Does anyone know what is going on here? any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Bill
