Hello lighttpd community Is there a tomcat connector of some sort for lighttpd ? (OK, I know, you will ask: why bother? Answer: already have a J2EE web application on a tomcat 5.0.28 installation on FC1 running out of my house, actually, a portal to some services, but want to get into Ruby on rails / PHP / Perl w FastCGI Perl has always been my favorite language, PHP and Ruby are cool, too. The AJAX support in Rails seems to be excellent.) Maurice Yarrow

I can help you work out some of the details if you decide to go down that route. Pete

Hello Pete, I am responsible for running and develop a non profit web site with scientific applications. Our site is running using tomcat and apache but I am on the process of looking for light weight servers to replace apache and possibly tomcat. Apache is very powerfull but our setting is becoming too complicated specially now that we want to use fast-cgi. I have been testing lighttpd and looks very nice but I having problems to connect to tomcat using mod_proxy. After looking at your posting I went to look at jetty and looks as a potential candidate to replace tomcat. Even when Jetty is also a HTTP server I still need to use lighttp to run ruby, fast-cgi and php. I will really appreciate any information on how to set lighttpd <-> jetty connection.

Pete Quite a while has gone by since you made this kind offer of help. At this time, if your offer still stands, maybe you could send your lighttpd and Jetty config files (if that poses no security or privacy concerns for you, of course.) Do I take it correctly that you are of the opinion that lighttpd, on balance, is easier to configure securely than apache httpd? My position on this is that apache is tough to configure securely in large part because there are so many options and settings.

Did anyone figure out how to configure mod_proxy on lighttpd for tomcat? If so could you post example config here?

Tomcat connector for lighttpd:
server.modules += ( "mod_proxy_backend_ajp13" )
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/tomcat/" {
proxy-core.balancer = "round-robin"
proxy-core.protocol = "ajp13"
proxy-core.backends = ( "localhost:8009" )
proxy-core.max-pool-size = 16
}
