Lighttpd & Tomcat

[puzor]

hello guys,

i run on my freebsd system a lighttpd webserver with php extensions. i would like install apache tomcat webserver in the background, too.

how can i route all http-requests over lighttpd to my tomcat? tomcat don't be in the front rank. i think it's better if lighttpd handle the http requests. or what do you think?

kind regards

You can always puy apache+tomcat as "main" on *:80 and use lighttpd for static http content.

A quick Google search lead me to this. Looks like it should work.

Use the proxy functionality, mod_proxy. I use this myself, to proxy both Tomcat/Resin, and other services on servers that is not available from the internet.
