Hello everybody,

I have a problem with the Apache setting for a scout application.

* I have an application installed on the Tomcat and is now under [<IP address> /org.eclipse.scout.ui.html/].
* Now I want a redirect from [app.myAdresse.eu] to [<IP address> /org.eclipse.scout.ui.html/].

I set this with a new Virtualhost on Apache:

<Virtualhost *:80>
    JkMount /* ajp13_worker
    
    ServerName app.myAdresse.eu
    
    #DocumentRoot /opt/tomcat/webapps
    DocumentRoot /opt/tomcat/webapps
    
    ErrorLog /opt/tomcat/logs/error.log
    
    CustomLog /opt/tomcat/logs/access.log common
    
      <Directory /opt/tomcat/webapps>
        Options -Indexes
    </Directory>
	
	RewriteEngine On
  RewriteRule ^/(.*) /org.eclipse.scout.ui.html/$1 [PT]  

</Virtualhost>

When I restart the Apache and Tomcat, I come to the login mask of the Scout framework. But the registration itself does not work!

However, logging in via the IP address [<IP address> /org.eclipse.scout.ui.html/] works without problems.

Is this on the Apache, the Tomcat or do I have something in the Scout application set?

Unfortunately I have no more idea.

What do you mean by 'does not work'? Do you have any error or warnings in the UI- or backend server log?

Cheers,
Paolo

Hy Paolo,

If I want to start the application via the "Virtualhost", the registration mask comes, but you can not log on. There is also no error message. No entries are made in the error logs. Nothing!

If I try to log on with deliberately wrong data, a proper error message comes.

I believe it is due to the proxy-foo (JkMount /* ajp13_worker or RewriteRule).

Thanks for help

Hi,

scout uses a cookie to identify your session after the authentication.
If you are using another path ("/" instead of "org.eclipse.scout.ui.html") for your application, the browser can not handle the cookie properly.

Option 1)
Tell your Tomcat the right path in the context.xml
