Hi,
I have apache 2.x webserver and tomcat 7.
I deployed a webapp under tomcat webapps and its working fine on http://localhost:8082/myapp
I redirected my apache to tomcat by adding :
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8082/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8082/
then i was able to get ROOT default page of tomcat by
http://mywebsite.com
but when i direct it to my webapp like:

ProxyPass /myapp http://localhost:8082/myapp
ProxyPassReverse /myapp http://localhost:8082/myapp
default RED HAT apache web server page opens on
http://mywebsite.com
but http://mywebsite.com/myapp is taking me to my application page.
But i want my app to be open on
http://mysite.com
Please give your valid suggestions.I hope some one gives wright solution.
thanks in advance...

Hi,
You can use:

Thanks for your reply...
I have already tried it but it shows error message like this:
404 error
description:The requested resource(/myappmyapp/)not found.

i gone through apache logs\error_logs and i got this error over there:

[error] [client <server ip>] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/myapp

Are you sure you add the trailing slash in the proxied URL (i.e. the trailing slash after myapp)? Take a look again at my previous post


Does not make sense. Unless you use an Alias to /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/myapp

I had /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/myapp in my document root,i removed it and tried your suggestion and it worked out.I dont have any virtual hosts defined and only one web server redirecting at one tomcat.At first i tried it with /var/www/html in
document root,but i didnt work out,i had gone through many tutorials and in some of them they told to change document root to tomcat's web application path ,so i did that,but i was running of clues tried the proxy syntax in every possible way and finally this is how i got with your help:
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/myapp/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/myapp/
(i have changed my tomcat port again to default)
so i have made two changes :
1.taked out /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.27/webapps/myapp from DocumentRoot and <Directory> parts and replaced them with default "/var/www/html" .
2.Added / at end of myapp: /myapp/
And dear Sir i really thank full to you for your replies and all the help you have given... Thank you so much....
(And the moral i learnt from this exp is that, one should think logically but not blindly follow the tutorials)
