Can anybody provide any tips...list of steps for doing this?
I installed ARS & Midtier using the ARS 7.6.03 suite installer on a RHEL 5
64-bit VM. After mid-tier install, the config.jsp URL (or any other) wasn't
working.
I installed both ARS & Midtier as non root. ARS runs fine, can access using Rem
User. During midtier install, I specified directory to existing apache setup (v
2.2.3), and asked for tomcat to be installed. I made sure that the user had
write permissions on httpd.conf and related directories for existing apache
setup, and I followed the usual instruction, did post-install taks for ARS
install etc (didn't see any for midtier as non-root).
After the mid-tier install, apache's httpd.conf was left untouched. Mid-tier
URLs through apache, of course, didn't work.
I can get to the default page for apache. I can also get to the new tomcat on
my browser directly at its port number (not through apache). I get the "apache
is running" text. It doesn't seem to know about midtier.
I tried doing mod_proxy_ajp configuration on httpd.conf file and tomcat's xml
files, and have it recognize/serve midtier, but no success so far. I don't hve
mod_jk and would like to avoid it based on local admin's preference.
My main issue seems to be having tomcat be aware of midtier/midtier's jars.
With proper configuration, I am thinking I should be able to access mid-tier
directly on tomcat's port...without having to worry about mod_proxy_ajp
connector (which really instructs apache, as i understand). Then I plan to have
it work with apache, through the port reroute by apache. If this two step plan
doesn't make sense, somebody please correct me.
Support site has info on mod_jk connector setup, but not mod_proxy_ajp.
Way more complications than I want to deal with at the moment. I don't want to
go off and start down the path of becoming a tomcat/apache configuration
specialist. Can't it all work nicely with a few simple steps that somebody must
have written down at some point? I wish.
Any tips on steps for mod_proxy_ajp configuration for midtier 7.6.03??
TIA.
