Configuring virtual hosts on JBoss 7

[developer251]

Hi all,

I have an application running on JBoss 4.x which is configured to run virtual hosts. (The virtual hosts are contained in the Host section of server.xml and in jboss-web.xml).  How do I port this to JBoss 7 ? just adding the alias in the virtual-server section seem not to work.

	<virtual-server name="default-host" enable-welcome-root="true">
	<alias name="localhost"/>
	<alias name="myhost.com"/>
	</virtual-server>

am I missing something in the virtual host configuration ?

Thanks

Max

Hi,

you have to create a new virtual-server element and point it to the war module you want to use.

If you don't set the web-module, jboss will use the default ROOT.war.

So, if your war file is nameOfWarModuleWithoutDotWar.war, your virtual server configuration will be like below.

	<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.0" default-virtual-server="virtualServerName">
	<connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" socket-binding="http" scheme="http"/>
	<virtual-server name="virtualServerName" default-web-module="nameOfWarModuleWithoutDotWar">
	<alias name="example.com"/>
	<alias name="otherExample.com"/>
	</virtual-server>
	</subsystem>
