JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.1 on Linux Enterprise Redhat
I have seen several examples on how to have Apache forward requests to JBoss. I am looking to have a JBoss server listening on port 80 forward cgi calls to an Apache server. Can JBoss be configured to listen at port 80 and forward all requests containing "cgi-bin" to port 8080 where Apache server is listening?
The need to do this arises from
- Jboss not supporting cgi (mod_perl in my case) AFAIK
- Since i am migrating from a server where all web requests used port 80, needing to keep the port as 80 to avoid programming changes
- 99% server calls are handled by JBoss, so i want it to be the primary point of contact
