Edit the redirector configuration file
This section describes how to set the redirector configuration file directives
that:
• Map Web server requests to EAServer listeners
• Set the redirector logging level
Mapping Web server requests to EAServer listeners
Create and edit the redirector configuration file to add the Connector.WebApp
directive, which maps requests sent to the redirector by the Web server to
EAServer HTTP listeners. The syntax is:
Connector.WebApp contextpath1 [, contextpath2 , and so on] =
http:// host : port [, http:// host : port , and so on]
For example, if “neptune” is the name of your Web server, and
WEB_SERVER_HOME/https-neptune/config/conn_config is the name and
location of the redirector configuration file, edit conn_config to:
Connector.WebApp /testapp = http://jaghost1:8080
Connector.WebApp /estore1, /estore2, /estore3 = http://neptune:8080
Connector.WebApp /* = http://foobar:8080, http://neptune:8080
Connector.WebApp examples=http://jaghost1:8080, http://jaghost1:3080,
http://jaghost2:8080
• In the first line, the “testapp” Web application maps to the EAServer
HTTP listener
http://jaghost1:8080.
For example, if your Web server is accepting requests on the host machine
web_server on port 8020 and the client sends the request
http://web_server:8020/testapp/test.jsp, the redirector forwards
the request to
http://jaghost1:8080/testapp/test.jsp.
• In the second line, the /estore1, /estore2, and /estore3 Web applications
map to the EAServer HTTP listener
http://neptune:8080.
For example, if your Web server is accepting requests on the host machine
web_server on port 8020 and the client sends the request
http://web_server:8020/estore1/sign_in.jsp, the redirector
forwards the request to
http:/neptune:8080/estore1/sign_in.jsp.
• In the third line, “/*” matches any request that is received by the connector,
provided the request did not match any of the other specifically configured
Web applications.
