Configuring the Apache Web Server

First we'll declare the virtual hosts for the Apache web server. This is done in a file called httpd-vhosts.conf. On Mac OS X, it is located in the directory /opt/local/apache2/conf/extra. If you're using Jetty on port 8888, the contents of the file should look like this:

NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost *:443

# This is the non-SSL host for the authoring environment.
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@cms.example.com
    ServerName cms.example.com
    ServerAlias cms
    
    # Turn proxy requests off for security reasons
    ProxyRequests Off
    
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteLog /home/john/src/www/logs/cms.example.com-rewrite_log
    RewriteLogLevel 4
    
    # First we match everything which is not mapped to /default/{area}
    RewriteRule ^/lenya/(.*) http://cms.example.com:8888/lenya/$1 [P,L]
    RewriteRule ^/modules/(.*) http://cms.example.com.com:8888/modules/$1 [P,L]
    RewriteRule ^/default/modules/(.*) http://cms.example.com:8888/default/modules/$1 [P,L]
    
    # Redirect the login usecase to https
    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.*)lenya\.usecase=ac\.login(.*)
    RewriteRule ^/(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]

    # Forward the areas to the proxy
    RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://cms.example.com:8888/default/$1 [P,L]
    ProxyPassReverse / http://cms.example.com:8888/default/

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@cms.example.com
    ServerName cms.example.com
    ServerAlias cms

    ServerAdmin webmaster@www.example.com

</VirtualHost>

If you're using Tomcat on port 8080 with Lenya in the context path lenya14, you have to change the port and add the context path accordingly:

    RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://cms.example.com:8080/lenya14/default/authoring/$1 [P,L]
    ProxyPassReverse / http://cms.example.com:8080/lenya14/default/authoring/
