About Apache httpd & JBoss configuration and Serving static

[onur.aktas]

Hi All,

I have read Brian's artical about configuring Apache with JBoss..
http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12525

However my application's war file is configured to be bound as "/" so i was using it like
http://localhost:8080/

I have configured Apache with these parameters:

mod_jk.conf

# Mount your applications
JkMount /* loadbalancer

Now, it ignores all paths from Apache, i want to create an image folder that will be served by Apache not by JBoss..

How can i configure both of them to work correctly while i want my application to be accessible through

http://locallhost/ ? -> From JBoss
http://localhost/images/ --> From Apache

Additionally, do i need to deploy my files under
server/all OR should i need to create server/nodeX for each node?

Thanks.

You can do this with the JkUnMount directive:

JkMount /* loadbalancer
JkUnMount /images/* loadbalancer

Generally I prefer to use the technique the wiki page mentions of externalizing this in a separate file.

mod_jk.conf

JkMountFile conf/uriworkermap.properties

uriworkermap.properties

/*=loadbalancer
!/images/*=loadbalancer

I've updated http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12525 to include that.

For full details on all the possibilities, see the "Assigning URLs to Tomcat" section on http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html

There's no need to create a server/nodeX for each node.

Thank you very much Brian!

It works now.
