Greetings,

I'm not sure whether this is a tomcat6 issue or an apache issue, but I thought 
maybe I would start here if no one minds.

We have a domain name and we have apache answering the door on both https(443) 
and http(80).  What we'd like to do is proxypass port 443 to tomcat6, and have 
port 80 serve html files normally on that domain name (i.e. different content)

So, we defined such in /etc/httpd/conf.d/virtuals.conf like so:

NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerName www.example.com:443
        SSLEngine on
        SSLCipherSuite 
ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL
        SSLCertificateFile /mnt/html/example/example.com.crt
        SSLCertificateKeyFile /mnt/html/example/www.example.com.key
        ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
</VirtualHost>

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName www.example.com:80
#        ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
        DocumentRoot    /mnt/html/example
</VirtualHost>

With the above, nothing works and in the /var/log/error_log file we see an 
entry for "file does not exist /mnt/html/example/", and we get that entry 
regardless whether we hit ports 443 or port 80 - which tells us nothing is 
proxying when set this way.

If we change the latter part of the configuration file to this:

NameVirtualHost *:80

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName www.example.com:80
        ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
#        DocumentRoot    /mnt/html/example
</VirtualHost>

Then https: does in fact proxy up to tomcat6, the application loads, and all is 
well.  However, it does the very same thing for port 80 as the proxypass 
statement is there also.

Proxypass seems to only work if both ports are proxied, and not work if either 
port is not proxied.

My question is this - is that the normal/expected behavior of proxypass, or 
should we keep digging elsewhere?

Thank you very much!
