Re: [Opaltoolkit-users] Making Opal return port 80 URLs

[Wilfred Li <wil...@gm...>]

Hi, Conrad,

Please let us know if this helps.

Here is a link that may help.
http://rocce.ucsd.edu/roll-documentation/opal/5.0/remove-portnum.html

The instruction below is rocks specific,

Removing Port 8080 from Opal URL

   1. Go to opal installation dir, in etc/opal.properties, remove 8080 from
   url, then "ant install"
   2. In /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, comment out "AddHandler type-map var"
   3. Modify worker.properties, like below
   4. Modify /etc/httpd/conf.d/rocks.conf, like below
   5. service httpd restart
   6. restart tomcat


[root@rocce conf]# cat workers.properties
#workers.java_home=/usr/java/jdk1.5
#ps=/

# Define 1 real worker using ajp13
worker.list=worker1
# Set properties for worker1 (ajp13)
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
worker.worker1.host=localhost
worker.worker1.port=8009


#rocks.conf, add these two lines right above <Directory...
JkMount /opal* worker1
JkMount /app* worker1


Best regards,

Wilfred
