Hi guys,

I know it may not be the right place to ask this but I can't figure out how to set up virtual hosts with JBoss 4.2.3.GA (JBossWeb) and Seam 2.1.1.GA.

Here is their application.xml file :

- myproject1

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd"
             version="5">
    
   <display-name>myproject1</display-name>
   
   <module>
      <web>
         <web-uri>myproject1.war</web-uri>
         <context-root>/myproject1</context-root>
      </web>
   </module>
   
   <module>
      <ejb>myproject1.jar</ejb>
   </module>
   
   <!-- Seam and EL -->
   <module>
       <ejb>jboss-seam.jar</ejb>
   </module>
   
</application>

- myproject2

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
             xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd"
             version="5">
    
   <display-name>myproject2</display-name>
   
   <module>
      <web>
         <web-uri>myproject2.war</web-uri>
         <context-root>/myproject2</context-root>
      </web>
   </module>
   
   <module>
      <ejb>myproject2.jar</ejb>
   </module>
   
   <!-- Seam and EL -->
   <module>
       <ejb>jboss-seam.jar</ejb>
   </module>
   
</application>

I can access these applications via :

• http://localhost:8080/myproject1


• http://localhost:8080/myproject2

I would like to access these applications using :

• http://myproject1:8080


• http://myproject2:8080

creating virtual hosts.

I read the documentation here and here and tried many things but I get it working.

I edited my hosts file :

127.0.0.1        myproject1
127.0.0.1        myproject2

Then I edited $JBOSSHOME/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/server.xml

<Engine name="jboss.web" defaultHost="myproject1">
    <Host name="myproject1"    appBase="???/myproject1"/>
    <Host name="myproject2" appBase="???/myproject2"/>
</Engine>

I can't figure out what should I write in the appBase field in the JBoss environment.

Then I created :

- $JBOSSHOME/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/conf/jboss.web/myproject1/ROOT.xml

containing this :

<Context docBase="/myproject1"
         path="" />

and :

- $JBOSSHOME/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/conf/jboss.web/myproject2/myproject2.xml

containing this :

<Context docBase="/myproject2"
         path="" />

I even tried to create a jboss-web.xml file as described here : http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/VirtualHostswithJBossAS
but when I try to load http://myproject1:8080 I get a white page and nothing loads.

Thank you for your help.

Have a good week-end :-)
