使用Apache Tomcat的socket.io

Question

I am using node.js server and implemented socket.io.

It works fine, but for some reason, I have to use Apache Tomcat, running on port 8080, and the node server running on 8081.

If I run the application via :8081 (serving pages through node.js), socket.io (socket.io is listening to 8081 port) is working, but when I serve through Apache Tomcat running application via :8080/Demo_Pro/index.html , socket.io is not working.

Can anybody explain how to run both Apache Tomcat and node.js at the same time.

You should look on google on how to host node.js and apache at the same time. You'll find that you'll have to use mod_proxy to proxy requests through apache. (node.js needs to be on another port). Look at this link: how to put nodejs and apache in the same port 80 . It'll give you an idea on how to do it.
