gadgets & mod_jk - mod_proxy

[corep105]

if i use mod_jk on my apache2 frontend gadgets stop working - if i use mod_proxy gadgets are fine. Have i missed some configuration thingy? (i have a jkmount * and a couple of jkunmount for html directories)

You should use JkMount /* or JkMount /portal/*

if not working, please show me your detail configurations

[corep105]

my jkmounts are as follows:

JkUnMount  "/503.html"  WRK_PORTALTEST

JkUnMount  "/html/*"  WRK_PORTALTEST

JkMount  "/*"  WRK_PORTALTEST

and worker.properties:

# WRK_PORTALTEST

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.type=ajp13

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.host=localhost

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.port=8009

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.socket_timeout=10

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.lbfactor=10

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.socket_keepalive=true

everything with the portal works except gadgets.

hmmm - looks like i have to look into this a bit more. If i use proxypass with hostname instead of 127.0.0.1 or localhost i have the same problem.

Hi,

Look as if you are missing declaration of workers list, such as worker.list=WRK_PORTALTEST

...

everything with the portal works except gadgets.

If you don't have workers list declaration, Apache2 starting process will has error. I wonder when you said the portal works?

The correct worker.properties as yours:

# WRK_PORTALTEST

worker.list=WRK_PORTALTEST

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.type=ajp13

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.host=localhost

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.port=8009

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.socket_timeout=10

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.lbfactor=10

worker.WRK_PORTALTEST.socket_keepalive=true

They worked in my testing.

i have looked into it a bit more and only using mod_proxy the problem manifests itself like this:

apache2 as frontend

mod_proxy enabled

VirtualHost *:80

Servername PORTALTEST

in the virtualhost section i have:

ProxyRequests Off
    <Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </Proxy>

    ProxyPass / http://PORTALTEST:8080/
    ProxyPassReverse /  http://PORTALTEST:8080/

and it is not working with gadgets. Everything else on the portal is working. If i change the hostname to either localhost or 127.0.0.1 then gadgets are working.

ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
     ProxyPassReverse /  http://127.0.0.1:8080/

am i the only one with this problem?

looks like we have something in our skin/theme that triggers the error - it works with a plain stock gatein.

Sorry - a dev issue in our environment apparently.

Thanks for the help anyways :-)

looks like the problem was an update to vmware-tools on our test server. It works every where else - so conclusion seems to be with vmware-tools. Can't explain why or what the problem is, but if i move gatein to another machine the same setup works.

Thanks for help etc. :-)
