setting up GF with apache web server?

Hi all,

Do we have setup instructions or other information about how to set up
GlassFish to serve as the servlet container with Apache web server as
the front end? Someone at a presentation I gave is using Apache/Tomcat
now and was asking what the steps would be to replace Tomcat with GF.
I've searched around a little, but the blogs I see on the topic look
kind of old.

Thanks,
Bobby

Look in the http://docs.sun.com site for the high availability guide
which contains information on how to use our LB plugin with Apache web
server to work with GF cluster.
If the need is for using Apache load balancing with mod_jk look for
Jan's blog entry.
http://blogs.sun.com/jluehe/entry/supporting_apache_loadbalancer_with_glassfish
and Daniel's blog entry
http://blogs.sun.com/jluehe/entry/supporting_apache_loadbalancer_with_glassfish

Sun's commercial support for GF does not yet include Apache load
balancing with mod_jk. It is at community level support.

Hi Bobby

The latest blog entry on quality page is about configuring loadbalancer
on apache webserver

Smitha has written a detailed step by step approach for configuring
loadbalancer on apache

http://blogs.sun.com/quality/

I have seen a lot of questions on this topic, so sending to larger audience

Thanks,
Gopal

There are several references to Solaris; will that work for Linux?

Short answer: Yes, it will, and chances are it's easier on most Linux
distributions. We're using a setup like that in a productive
environment, works without any real issues. Feel free to ask if you need
any help outlining configuration details. :)

Cheers,
Kristian
