[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Making eXo Platform available at the root URL using Apache

biscuit [http://community.jboss.org/people/biscuit] created the discussion "Making eXo Platform available at the root URL using Apache" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/637207#637207 -------------------------------------------------------------- I have been asked to front an eXo Platform installation (running on Tomcat) with Apache HTTPD in such a way that URLs that are normally available at:      http://myserver:port/portal/private/myportal http://myserver:port/portal/private/myportal are made available at:      http://myserver/ http://myserver/ I have made some progress with lots of ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse directives mapping /public, /eXoResources, etc to their corresponding ajp:// URLs, before having a final catch--all entry:      ProxyPass  / ajp://localhost:8009/portal/private/myportal/      ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/portal/private/myportal/ But it still gets stuck on various bits of JavaScript and so-on which are generated on the Tomcat side and refer to the Tomcat URL. There are various properties that can be set to control how this JavaScript gets generated:      eXo.env.portal.portalName      eXo.env.server.context      eXo.env.server.portalBaseURL      eXo.env.portal.context However, documentation on eXoPlatform's website is a bit sparse and the only thing I can find is http://wiki.exoplatform.org/xwiki/bin/view/Portal/Changing%20eXo%20URL this, which seems to avoid modifying configuration on the Tomcat side, and instead relies on Apache doing massses of in-line modification of Tomcat's responses using mod_substitute, which I really don't like the look of. So I have a few questions: * Is this approach fundamentally flawed - is it actually possible to achieve what we want or does it introduce ambiguity into the URLs (eg what do we do with the few /public/ URLs we have)? * Will the above properties help? * Is the use of mod_substitute the only way of achieving this? Thanks in advance for any help!
