May I suggest you following settings ?
*httpd.conf* :
ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/
ProxyPreserveHost On
You could use also mod_jk :
*workers.properties* :
worker.list=w1
# Set properties for worker1 (ajp13)
worker.w1.type=ajp13
worker.w1.host=localhost
worker.w1.port=8009
*httpd.conf* :
...
JkMount /* w1
...

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://community.jboss.org/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!
