Question
Apache Http SSL Reverse Proxy AJP Tomcat
I have setup Apache, Tomcat, and LetsEncrypt following the tutorials available and my website homepage is running. I am trying to setup a reverse proxy to webapps on Tomcat, though every tutorial I have followed results in failure. I don’t know how to figure out what is happening behind the scenes, i.e., why the request is not going through, so I cannot figure out how to fix the issue.
Tomcat server.xml Connector
<Connector protocol=“AJP/1.3”
address=“0.0.0.0”
secretRequired=“false”
port=“8009”
redirectPort=“8443”
proxyName=“www.example.com”
proxyPort=“80” />
I have a <virtualhost *:80> in apache config.
ProxyPass /example ajp://localhost:8009/example
I tried setting up a <virtualhost *:443> as well, but when I link to the cert file from letsencrypt, the server fails to start. I have tried a number of different configurations but I am just not able to get it working if anyone has a sample configuration with this setup that is functioning, it would be really helpful. Thank you.
