Re: Win2003, Apache2.2 & Tomcat6 Apache proxy to Tomcat

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Made the change to port 8080.
I also changed the host file on the server to bypass DNS for www.mydomain.com and to just loop back to the local IP address instead. 
Between those 2 one of them worked. 
From the outside I am getting a connection time out in Firefox. 
So, since it is working fine from the server, with it not having to leave the network and come back in, I am assuming that https traffic is being blocked by the firewall.  At least that seems reasonable to me. I do not do the firewall work for this company but I would think when I asked them to open up internet traffic to this server that they would of opened up port 80 & 443 traffic, but who knows.
Thanks,
Hopefully this has taken care of my problem.

Sorry.
Yes they are https, not https just me mis-typing.
The email client was seeing all of those as links and the apache
listserv bounced my original email as spam.  So I added the spaces to
get it to go thru.  They are not in the conf files.
Yes general message in IE, I will try it in firefox and others and see
what I get.  Really not getting anything in the error log, first place I
looked.
Thanks

Don't overlook my hint about using port 8080 instead of 8443.

       I am running a Win2003 server using Apache2.2 to basically just
       proxy to
       Tomcat6 with SSL.

       I had tried running just tomcat6 but from everything that I read
       it was
       better for SSL traffic to proxy using Apache, so that is what i did.

       Right now I am just pointing it to the Tomcat default page, that
       is easy
       enough to change later.

       Here is where I am at.

       1. On the server if I go to http: //localhost: it brings up the
       page fine.
       2. On the server https: //localhost   also brings up the page
       fine.  Of
       course I do get a certificate error because the SSL cert is for my
       domain.  But it does work and the samples run fine.

       3. From either the server or another PC, if I goto http: //my.
       domain.com <http://domain.com/> <http://domain.com

       <http://domain.com/>>   it works fine and brings up the Tomcat

       default page.
       4. From either place going to https  the browser says waiting and
       eventually returns an error.

       In my httpd.conf file I have:

       Listen 80
       Listen 443
       The mod_proxy 's, mod_ssl & mod_vhost_alias are all turned on.



       In my httpd-vhosts.conf file here is what I have:

       NameVirtualHost *:80 (although on this try it isn't named, shows
       error
       in the logs but doesnt seem to hurt anything)
       NameVirtualHost *:443
       <IfModule ssl_module>
       SSLRandomSeed startup builtin
       SSLRandomSeed connect builtin
       </IfModule>
       ProxyPass / http: //localhost:8080/
       ProxyPassReverse / http: //localhost:8080/
       <VirtualHost *:443>
            SSLEngine On
            SSLProxyEngine on
            SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl/certname.cer
            SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl/keyname.key


   I assume you have a more complete SSL config included, like setting
   the cipher suite and enabling SSL session handling. See the default
   configuration provided with the Apache web server.


       ProxyPass / httpa: //localhost:8443/
       ProxyPassReverse / httpa: //localhost:8443/


   httpa does not exist, and the space between the scheme and the rest
   of the URL won't be good either. What do you really have in your
   config here?

   If you only want Tomcat to do http and the Apache reverse proxy
   should do the full https, then use again


   ProxyPass / http: //localhost:8080/
   ProxyPassReverse / http: //localhost:8080/

            ErrorLog "logs/mydomain.com-error.log"
            CustomLog "logs/mydomain.com-access.log" common
       </VirtualHost>


       I have tried several different rewrites on this and just not
       getting it
       to work.
       I did put the port 80 => 8080 pass in a VirtualHost tag, it
       works fine
       on http: //localhost  but when using https it gives some bogus
       message
       of the server being too busy.
       I took the 443 =>8443 directives out of the VirtualHost tag and that
       works fine on http: //localhost  but when using https it goes to the
       Apache default page.
       No matter what I do, I still get an error from http: //my.
       domain.com <http://domain.com/>
       <http://domain.com <http://domain.com/>> while http: //my.
       domain.com <http://domain.com/> <http://domain.com

       <http://domain.com/>>

       runs fine.

       Any ideas?  I am definately not an expert with Apache setup.  I
       am more
       a DB & ERP system guy who has been writting more and more jsp apps.
       Now I have one that I need to secure and having one heck of a
       time doing it.
       (Sorry for the spaces.  e-mail was seeing them as URLs and the
       listserv
       SPAM filter was blocking the email)
       Thanks in advance for any help.
       Mike


   If it still doesn't work:

   What error message do you get in the client? If it is the general
   error message provided by Microsoft Internet Explorer, use some
   other browser to see the full error message.

   Is there any message in the error log of Apache?

   Rainer
