I have a domain domain.com that points to a server. Now I have a subdomain sub.domain.com that points to another server that has Apache running and Tomcat. I want this subdomain to point to a application deployed on the Tomcat instance through ajp.
I have configured the following in httpd.conf:
ServerName sub.domain.com
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
Order deny,allow Allow from all
ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
ProxyPassReverse / ajp://localhost:8009/
and in Tomcats server.xml:
But when I go to sub.domain.com the url changes to otherdomain.com and shows me a php website running in Apache and declared as following in httpd.conf:
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/otherdomain.com
ServerName otherdomain.com
ServerAlias www.otherdomain.com
I only get it to work when I change the port in the sub.domain.com virtual host declaration to for example 8001. Then when I go to sub.domain.com:8001 it shows my tomcat application (ROOT.war) as expected.
So my question is: what could be going wrong that it doesn't work with the default port 80? I can't find any configuration that is causing this, but I'm probably missing something or is my virtual host configuration wrong?
