How to configure one Apache 2.2.15 server for 2 instances of jboss

[astalwar]

I have single Apache 2.2.15 server on default IP address (0.0.0.0:80) of host using mod_jk/AJP serving one instance of jboss folder as a URL.

Now, on same host, using 2 IP Addresses, how can i easily extend Apache/JBOSS to serve 2 URL's to 2 instance folders?

Is their a current document explaing this stepwise.

Many thanks

2 IP's on the JBoss server, 2 deployment directories, right?

If so, start 2 JBoss instances, one for eah IP.

http://community.jboss.org/wiki/ConfiguringMultipleJBossInstancesOnOnemachine

Then point Apache accordingly to one webapp if IP A is hit, and another webapp if IP B is hit.

thanks Jesse,

next, using apache/mod_jk/AJP to connect to separate jboss node instances on same box.

Is their a doc to configure the apache httpd.conf to recognize the 2 URL and point them to respective IP addresses

after i bring up the 2 jboss instances?

Solution. Many ways to skin this cat.

I was able to bring up 2nd instance of jboss 4.4.3 on same h/w server. installing this as separate service

Then i took apache 2.2.15 httpd and installed it as a separate service listening only to 2nd URL's IP address

In its workers.properties i created a node to point to 2nd jboss instance and port 8009 using mod_jk again.

And used uriworkermap.properties to point to the app for node 2.
