 |
|
This is a fast Quick start to get Apache2 web server working with JBoss as a backend application server for the first time like me an hour ago  .
Both servers are running on the localhost.
For the Jboss server I use the version 4.0.1sp1, just get it from www.jboss.org unpack it under /opt, make a symbolic link from the unpacked directory to jboss and start it up with /opt/jboss/bin/run.sh
I presume you have Apache2 and Jboss already setup and running.
There is nothing to configure on the Jboss side, for extra details you can read:
JBoss 4.0 docu Connectors chap9
For the non-java side there is very little to configure thanks to the emerge guys 
First emerge the mod_jk2
After the emerge finished, we need to make apache aware of the plugin
| Code: | | # vi /etc/apache2/conf/apache2.conf |
Add the following line under the other LoadModule lines:
| Code: | | LoadModule jk2_module extramodules/mod_jk2.so |
Now add some test url. Remove this ASP it's only for testing now.
| Code: | | # vi /etc/apache2/conf/workers2.properties |
add the following lines to the end of the file:
| Code: | [uri:/web-console/*]
worker=ajp13:localhost:8009 |
This will export the web-admin of JBoss to the Apache web server.
Restart Apache
| Code: | | # /etc/init.d/apache2 restart |
Test if JBoss is running by opening the url:
http://<your.host.name>:8080/web-console
Ok? You should see the JBoss web console
Test if Apache is running by opening the url:
http://<your.host.name>/
Ok? Now for the final test:
open the url http://<your.host.name>/web-console
You should see the web-admin console of the JBoss application server running over Apache.
Great! That's all. If you need other urls just edit the workers2.properties file.
