I have a facebook application hosting on a server using tomcat. I have also **apache **server on the same machine where I handle incoming requests and redirect them based on if it is coming secure port(SLL 443) or 80 (standard HTTP port). I have only one domain which is www.myfacebookapp.net.
**The problem starts when I need to host my app and website on the same server. **Normally it shouldn’t be a problem however both my app and website have to support SSL (Facebook made it mandatory as it does not accept any connection which is not secure (not https) )
Below is the summary of my configuration
VirtualHost1 (*: 80)
ServerName www.myfacebookapp.net
DocumentRoot /var/www/http/public_html/
VirtualHost1 (*: 443) #direct to tomcat**
ServerName www.myfacebookapp.net
DocumentRoot /var/www/http/public_html/ ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
ServerName www.myfacebookapp.net
SSLEngine on
#other ssl related config
**It works fine **with my facebook app and also webpage **when I access my webpage from 80 (http://www.myfacebookapp.net) **However, I should also support my webpage support https connections. Unfortunately, I can not achieve this with this configuration. So what I would like to do,
Is it possible to achieve this without any additional domain name and SSL certificate?
I couldn’t find any configuration such that,
Apache documentation says that I cant define two virtual hosts for both 443 (https) and same domain.
Basically, I want to host my facebook app and website on the same server and both should be accessible through https.
Anyone knows any solution about this?
Thanks/

Hello,
What you have there seems correct, you just need to adjust the ProxyPass / rule to ProxyPass /myApp and the same for the ProxyPassReverse rule. Then it should work with one domain name only without having to add multiple domains.
