在Amazon AWS中部署WAR文件-Tomcat和Apache HTTP Server冲突

Question

I'm using an Amazon Linux AMI instance and I've deployed a war file on it.

The deployed war file shows up in the 'webapps' folder of tomcat6.

The real problem is - Apache HTTP 2.2 server is also installed.

When I access my instance's URL ( http://ec2-107-20-92-32.compute-1.amazonaws.com ), I see the default page of Apache HTTP 2.2 Only, which, if I'm not wrong, works on port number 80.

Now, how do I get my Apache HTTP 2.2 Server communicate with tomcat6 to display the website deployed in Tomcat?

Or, are there any other alternatives to it?

(I use MacOS X's terminal to connect to my Instance and I uploaded the WAR on S3 to deploy it in tomcat.)

TIA :)

Answer 1

In addition to mac's suggestions (shutting down Apache and making Tomcat listen at port 80, or configuring the Tomcat connector on Apache), you might also set a pair of ProxyPass / ProxyPassReverse directives on your Apache configuration, like the example at mod_proxy documentation .

If you decide to follow this suggestion, your rules would look like follows (in the VirtualHost listening at port 80):

ProxyPass / http://ec2-107-20-92-32.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://ec2-107-20-92-32.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8080/

Nothing worked. I deleted the instance and tried the same with Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit instance, it worked. I have no clue why it didnt work in Amazon Linux AMI :(
