I am setting up a one-web-app JBoss AS7 server. I want the web app to run as root (ROOT.war). I am front-ending JBoss with Apache2 using mod_proxy with a simple proxy. I'll try to give all the pieces of the configuration here.
I am using an exploded deployment by linking (ln -s) ROOT.war to a directory on the server. I use ROOT.war.dodeploy to deploy the web app, and the server log shows that happens without error. JBoss is listening for HTTP on port 8080.
Here's the JBoss standalone.xml configuration for the virtual machine in the web subystem:
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.1" default-virtual-server="default-host">
<connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http"/>
<virtual-server name="default-host" enable-welcome-root="false">
<alias name="localhost"/>
<alias name="seqviewer.arabidopsis.org"/>
</virtual-server>
</subsystem>
I am using the alias name localhost as the incoming host name for now.
Here's the jboss-web.xml virtual host specification:
<jboss-web>
<context-root>/</context-root>
<virtual-host>localhost</virtual-host>
</jboss-web>
I am using the root context with the localhost virtual host.
Here's the mod_proxy setup in httpd.conf
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/
I am doing all this in a kvm virtual machine configured with SELinux, and I have used this command to enable httpd access:
sudo setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1
The name of the VM is falklands.tairgroup.org. The URL:
http://falklands.tairgroup.org
should bring up the web app's index.html. Instead I get an HTTP status 404: The requested resource (/) is not available..
ps tells me jboss is running just fine (and the server.log confirms error-free startup), and lsof tells me jboss is listening on port 8080.
What am I missing in the various linkages?
