Liferay with Apache web Server

[padmalaya pradhani, modificado 11 Anos atrás.]

Hi

Can any one help me with simple steps of running liferay instance on apache web server.

I did follow the documentation available in wiki, however the same is not helpful.

Thanks in advance

Hi Subhasis ,

Thanks for the link!!

I could see I need to make changes in server.xml of Tomcat server and add the following lines

<listener classname="”org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig”" forwardall="”false”" noroot="”false”" modjk="”/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so”" confighome="”/etc/apache2″" jkconfig="”/etc/apache2/conf/mod_jk.conf”" jkworker="”localtomcat”" jklog="”/var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log”" jkdebug="”debug”" workerconfig="”/etc/apache2/workers.properties”/"></listener>

But on including the same I get the below error:

WARNING: Catalina.start using conf/server.xml: 
com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.io.MalformedByteSequenceException: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence.


	at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.io.UTF8Reader.invalidByte(UTF8Reader.java:684)
	at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.io.UTF8Reader.read(UTF8Reader.java:554)

Please help me fix this .

Thanks in advance

If I wanted apache in front of liferay, I would be following just two steps. And none of those is on liferay server.
1. Enable mod_proxy, mod_proxy_http
2. Add conf for

<IfModule proxy_module>
<IfModule proxy_http_module>

#
# Reverse Proxy
#
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost Off

<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyPass / http://rkg.test:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://rkg.test:8080/
</IfModule>
</IfModule>

Then you would totally be missing out on the advantages of Apache, including serving static files.

My favorite apache + tomcat reference is here: https://www.dnebinger.com/wiki/-/wiki/Setup+and+Configuration/Fronting+Liferay+Tomcat+with+Apache+HTTPd+daemon

The link is not working, can you share me some other link where you described it

I have re-found that, searching in google the title of the article: http://www.liferay.com/web/26526/blog/-/blogs/fronting-liferay-tomcat-with-apache-httpd-daemon

[David H Nebinger, modificado 10 Anos atrás.]

I reposted it on Liferay.com as a blog entry here: http://www.liferay.com/web/26526/blog/-/blogs/fronting-liferay-tomcat-with-apache-httpd-daemon

The Exception occurs when there is some special UTF-8 characters inside a XML file, and SAX’s parser is not configure to parse the UTF-8 properly. I guess there is some special characters in your xml file. Can you please do one thing.

Try to put the double quotes again. I mean to say

forwardAll=”false” --> In this line delete the quote and then again put the quote using key board. Don't copy and paste it from the example I have given.

Ravi's right. You don't need to edit tomcat server's server.xml file.
You probably added BOM to your xml file.
