Larry, sorry I am not more of an expert in this area, but here is what a working apache proxy looks like for me:


# do not turn on == evil (i.e. open proxy)
ProxyRequests Off
# see http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Configuring+mod_proxy
ProxyPreserveHost On


<Location />
        ProxyPass balancer://sakai2_lb/ nofailover=On
        ProxyPassReverse balancer://sakai2_lb/
</Location>

<Proxy balancer://sakai2_lb>
        BalancerMember http://localhost:8080
</Proxy>

Thanks Lance, I think I found it but I'm really stuck on the mod_proxy part.  I'm not doing load balancing, and I followed the directions to enable SSL via Tomcat and created a self-signed key.  I want it to be transparent for the end user.  Once, I get it working correctly, I'll draw up a re-direct the portal using an html redirect my brother likes.  I have attached the relevant files.  I hope something will just jump out at one of you.  Our addresses are:

sakai.windsorschools.net/portal<http://sakai.windsorschools.net/portal>
72.15.29.249

Any help would be greatly appreciated, we are so close!

Larry,

That is an apache httpd config file - you might try looking in /etc/httpd/conf or similar directory.  Best, L

Hi all,

I'm trying to follow the tutorial (https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/DOC/Sakai+Admin+Guide+-+Advanced+Tomcat++(and+Apache)+Configuration) but I can't find the httpd.conf file anywhere.

Basically, I would like to force it to be secure and obviously not be on port 8080 so that people have to enter it every time they want to get there.  Our instance is actually up on http://sakai.windsorschools.net:8080/portal but I would like it to be secure all the time for the logins, etc.  I am assuming I need to do that first step (proxy pass reverse, etc.) with the httpd.conf file before moving on to serverinfo.xml.

I could also look into doing tomcat natively according to the instructions and I don't mind doing that but I want users to type in simply sakai.windsorschools.net<http://sakai.windsorschools.net/> and it re-directs them to https://sakai.windsorschools.net/portal.  I don't mind using a self-signed cert just to get it up and running for the pilot.  I have a wildcard I can use later on for a proper cert.

Thanks,
