As we know, Jetty supports the use of a front-end HTTP server such as
Apache as a front-end server. Here's a short walkthrough for
configuring a Jetty (Ready2Run Jetty+OpenBD) with a Apache 2.2 front-
end using AJP13. For more information see the original guide on Jetty
website.
1. Open your jetty.xml. Edit it. Replace the following:
<Call name="addConnector">
<Arg>
<New class="org.mortbay.jetty.nio.SelectChannelConnector">
<Set name="host"><SystemProperty name="jetty.host" /></Set>
<Set name="port"><SystemProperty name="jetty.port" default="8080"/
></Set>
<Set name="maxIdleTime">30000</Set>
<Set name="Acceptors">2</Set>
<Set name="statsOn">false</Set>
<Set name="confidentialPort">8443</Set>
<Set name="lowResourcesConnections">5000</Set>
<Set name="lowResourcesMaxIdleTime">5000</Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</Call>
With the following:
<Call name="addConnector">
<Arg>
<New class="org.mortbay.jetty.ajp.Ajp13SocketConnector">
<Set name="host">127.0.0.1</Set>
<Set name="port">8009</Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</Call>
2. Open your http.conf, and add this:
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so (on Windows)
ProxyPass / ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/
ProxyPreserveHost On
3. Run your Jetty+OpenBD, and restart your Apache server. Now, you
can run and browse your web apps from Apache port (80) as front end,
not Jetty port (8080).
