We are attempting to do two functions with our HTTP Server (Version 2.4):
1.
Load Balance (mod_proxy balancer) workload to two Tomcat servers (version 8)
2.
Be able to route a request to Tomcat to serve up a web page. The two URLS are configured in Tomcat to execute the functions are “https://Tomcat Server.com:8443/Tomcatwebapp/” and “https://Tomcat Server.com:8443/User Guide/” When the Tomcat web app executes, a web page is produced for the end users. On this web page is a button that triggers the link for the User Guide.
The process flow design is as follows:
1.
User enters https://HttpServer.com/ which is processed by the HTTP Server and then load balanced to either of the Tomcat servers as
https://Tomcat server:8443/Tomcatwebapp.
2.
Tomcat server receives the request and triggers the web app web page.
3.
The web page is displayed on the end user browser
4.
The end user clicks the User Guide Button
5.
The request flows to the HTTP Server and is routed to the Tomcat server to execute
https://Tomcat server:8443/UserGuide.
6.
The User Guide is opened on the end user browser in another tab. Process flow #1 to #4 are working. #5 is where we need help. Due to security restrictions, we only have two ports open between the client and the HTTP Server (443 and 20443). We are having difficulty getting the HTTP Server to route the URL to the Tomcat server as
https://Tomcat server:8443/UserGuide. We are not sure how to configure the httpd.conf file to allow for this URL flow to the Tomcat server. If it makes more sense to have the HTTP Server serve up the User Guide web page, which would be OK too. Our httpd.conf file: # # Proxy # ProxyRequests Off <Proxy \*> Order deny,allow Deny from all </Proxy> # <Proxy balancer://Client_Prod> BalancerMember https://Tomcatserver1.com:8443/Tomcatwebapp/ BalancerMember https://Tomcatserver2.com:8443/Tomcatwebapp/ Order allow,deny Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPass / balancer://Client_Prod/ <VirtualHost *:443> SSLEngine on SSLProtocol -SSLv2 -SSLv3 -TLSv1 -TLSv1.1 +TLSv1.2 SSLCertificateFile "C:/whatever.client1" SSLCertificateKeyFile "C:/whatever.client1" ProxyPass / balancer://Client_Prod/ ProxyPassReverse / balancer://Client_Prod/ </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:20443> SSLEngine on SSLProtocol -SSLv2 -SSLv3 -TLSv1 -TLSv1.1 +TLSv1.2 SSLCertificateFile "C:/whatever.client2" SSLCertificateKeyFile "C:/whatever.client2" ProxyPass / balancer://Client_Prod/ ProxyPassReverse / balancer://Client_Prod/ </VirtualHost> |
