JBoss Application Server

Hi you all,

I just would like someone tell me if I need to install a web server such as Apache before installing JBoss Aplication Server.

Many Thanks

No you need not. JBoss comes bundled with Tomcat.

Just one question more. JBoss Application Server comes with a bundled version of Tomcat, but what about Apache HTTP server?

JBoss is bundled with Tomcat web server and not Apache HTTP server.

well tomcat has its own web server listening to 8080. Due to many reasons (read security, firewall - dmz configuration, performance and clustering) it is not recommended to use the built in web server and use apache web server instead and use mod_jk to plug it in with tomcat.

In short, apache is not needed and you may very well work with tomcat webserver

So the best to do would be to set up the different server, JBoss(with Tomcat), and Apache right??

right! with this configuration you may also configure apache to serve the static content (images/html/js/css) and let tomcat handle the dynamic part (saves lot of unnecessary hit to jboss/tomcat)

So with the Apache/JBoss configuration I can handle both static and dynamic content (servlet, jsp,EJB), but what if I also want to run CGI and .net applications? I heard about JBOSS Web, but how can I confugure them all? I mean should I install JBoss Application Server as well as the JBoss Web?

Thanks,

So with an Apache/JBoss instalation I can handle requests to static and dinamic content (Servlet, JSP, EJB...), but what If I also want to run both CGI scripts and .net applications???

I heard about JBoss Web, my questions is: Can I have two JBoss instalations to run the different content?

Thanks,

Hello,

The following Wiki page consists Version details of Tomcat bundled with JBoss AS.

Hope, this may help you.
