Apache Configuration for ACL

[Vijay <vijayknu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I am trying to configure apache for ACL. I have got installed Apache 2.2 in my machine. I have modified httpd.conf file as follows

 

1. #Listen Modifications

#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
#Listen 80
Listen 12.345.67.89:7001

 

2. Added the following details

<Locations >

   AuthType basic
   AuthName "Restricted Area"
   AuthUserFile C:/apache/passwd/passwords
    Require valid-user

</Location>

 

<VirtualHost 12.345.67.89:7001>
     DocumentRoot "C:/program files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/caccess"
     ServerName 12.345.67.89:7001
     ServerAdmin someone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
      ErrorLog "C:/program files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/err_log"
     TransferLog "C:/program files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/access_log"
</VirtualHost>

After making these changes I restarted apache. Then I am getting an error 12.345.67.89:7001 address is already in use. I have weblogic server running at port 7001.

 

So, what I am actually trying to achieve is -  I have my application running in weblogic server which can be accessed by http://12.345.67.89:7001/webapp Now I want to validate each and every user who is accessing this url using basic auth provided by Apache. how can I achieve this? What if apache and weblogic servers are hosted in different machines? My application is using SSL port (7002) also. So, what are all the changes that I am supposed to make this work? Thanks.
