New Pleskian
Hello Folks,
I have been recently assigned being an adminstrator of a Plesk 12 managed web server running on Ubuntu Linux.
And I have a problem configuring something that is way off a "standard" application, so I am asking for help.
My problem:
I have a Java server application with an embedded Tomcat servlet container. As I already have an Apache Web Server running on this machine, I want to make use of the AJP protocol to connect these two web servers, running on port 8009.
So, on a standard Apache configuration I simply would add some VirtualHost configuration and that would be it:
But, as I am running Plesk 12, this does not work that simple.
I tried several ways adding a subdomain via Plesk Configuration UI, but all I did manage was adding a heavily PHP backed folder below "/var/www/vhosts/$domain_name/$subdomain_name".
So, I found out vhost configuration for the Apache/Plesk combination lies in "/etc/apache2/plesk.conf.d/vhosts".
Going there, I edited the automatically created .conf file for my subdomain. Basically I deleted the whole Plesk configuration for this subdomain and replaced it with above ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse settings, and it worked. So far, so good.
Alas, there is a nice warning inside of thes conf files:
I have already tried out that advice by creating such a vhost.conf file with my ProxyPass settings, but of no avail. So I got back to my manual edit described above.
So, I've got the impression that fiddling with these conf files manually is not that much of a good idea at all.
But I do not know how to do that "the correct way".
So, could you please help me? What am I supposed to do here?
Best regards
B.
