[opencms-dev] Workplace login-problem, wants to popup on port :8081 and not :80 -> SOLVED

[Yves Glodt]

Hello,

my problem is solved.

The source for the problem was in a too-agrressive security profile in the 
DMZ-Applicance in our network. It broke even PHP-Sessions.

Sorry for flooding the list. The Howto for apache/OpenCms-integration looks 
good.

I added an AJP connector to apache, and used this in my virtualhost:

ProxyPass         /                   ajp://localhost:8009/opencms/
ProxyPassReverse  /             ajp://localhost:8009/opencms/

and it works fine with AJP as well (no other parameter had to be changed)

Now I just try to get webdav work through apache.

Best regards,
Yves
