Hi.
I have a fairly popular website which runs on a Apache Tomcat 5.5. I just
upgraded to 6.0.20 and copied the Virtual Host configuration from my older
server (i.e. Tomcat 5.5) to the new one.
I cannot access my site with the VirtualHost's domain name. I get a 404 not
found.
I have two Virtual Hosts (i.e.<Host ...>) , one called www.mydomain.net
(with WWW) and mydomain.net (without WWW). The latter (mydomain.net) simply
points to a directory which contains an index.jsp page with a 301 redirect
to the www.mydomain.net domain. This is for SEO purposes.
I get a 404 not found when I try to access my site this way (using a
browser):
1. mydomain.net
2. www.mydomain.net
3. www.mydomain.net/<directory containing site>
4.<ip address>
Points 1 and 4 in the list above are simply 301 redirects to
www.mydomain.net, so a 404 is not surprising. It seems the www makes it not
work.
I can access it by going to:
1. mydomain.net/<directory containing site>
2.<ip address>/<directory containing site>
I can also access another dummy wepage with:
www.mydomain.net/<path to dummy webpage> (with the www)
I know this seems inconsistent. But that is the reason for this post.
Note this works perfectly in Tomcat 5.5.
Here is the configuration:
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="mydomain.net">
<Host name="www.mydomain.net" appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="" docBase="<path_to_website>"/>
</Host>
<Host name="mydomain.net" appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="" docBase="<path_to_301_redirect>"
</Host>
Place your files in the ROOT directory.
/path/to/website/appBase
/path/to/website/appBase/ROOT
/path/to/redirect/appBase
/path/to/redirect/appBase/ROOT
<Host name="mydomain.net" appBase="/path/to/website/appBase"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
</Host>
<Host name="mydomain.net" appBase="/path/to/redirect/appBase"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
</Host>
You don't need the Context definition if that is all you had configured
on it.

I would be grateful for any help on this topic.
Thanks.
