Hi,

Is there a simple way to do the following:

1) All "http" based requests to website www.abc.com go to my Apache2 server regardless of the virtual site

2) All "https" based requests to website www.abc.com are proxied to a private tomcat server via mod_proxy


Only option that I think may work is to do this in sites-enabled/ssl

NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:443>
 ServerAdmin webmaster@(protected)

 SSLEngine On
 SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

#=======

ProxyPass / balancer://backtcserver/
......snip.....


and this in httpd.conf

<Proxy balancer://backtcserver>
 BalancerMember ajp://localhost:8009/
</Proxy>


and this in sites-enabled/000-default

<VirtualHost *:80>
 ServerAdmin webmaster@(protected)

 DocumentRoot /var/www
 <Directory />
   Options FollowSymLinks
   AllowOverride None
 </Directory>


This way https uses the proxy server and http does not


Thanks
Des
