[opencms-dev] FileUploadApplet Blocked on Port 8080

[Steve Bryan]

Hi Brett

I had this issue, and eventually fixed it by using mod_jk instead of
mod_proxy.

However Mark Lange offered an alternative solution, which I did not actually
try but sounds better:

"Maybe it would be sufficient to set the proxyPort in the connector: 
<Connector port="8080" ... 
              proxyName="www.mycompany.com" 
              proxyPort="80"/> 

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/proxy-howto.html"

See the issue in context at

Hi,

We have an issue with OpenCMS attempting to serve the FileUploadApplet
through a blocked port. Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?
Details as follows.

We are running OpenCMS 7.0.4 on port 8080 behind an Apache proxy.
However, when we click on the upload icon (newresource_upload.jsp) the
Applet fails to load. The markup for newresource_upload.jsp specifies
port 8080.

<applet code="org.opencms.applet.upload.FileUploadApplet.class"
archive="http://192.1668.1.15:8080/resources/components/upload_applet/upload
.jar"
width="500" height="100">

Unfortunately port 8080 is blocked from users, hence our issue. I see
this problem came up a few months ago.

Did anybody have a fix for this issue?

Cheers

Brett
