I have a website that runs on a framework on a LAMP stack.
Now I want to extend this website by adding a bunch of new pages, but served from a different framework on a separate LAMP stack on another server that is prepared to handle more traffic.
I don't want this traffic to pass by the original website as it will be a burden to be processed by the framework. However, I can afford to have apache forwarding the traffic request to a specific folder forwarded to a separate server with a different IP address.
For example:
mydomain.com/ -> goes to server A,
mydomain.com/folder1/ -> goes to server B
How can I accomplish this with apache?
I can even afford setup a separated server to handle the separation of these request, so each server will only receive the requests it is intended to process.
Another option could be to set a subdomain like ww2.mydomain.com pointed to the IP of a separated server but will this affect my SEO ranking?
What are other options and what would be the best option for this case?
You are looking for ProxyPass directive.
Example location for mydomain.com virtualhost:
<VirtualHost ...>
ServerName mydomain.com
...
<Location /folder1/>
ProxyPass http://serverb/
SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
</Location>
</Virtualhost>

I have a unbent server with apache2 on it and in: /etc/apache2/sites-available I have the file: adambalan.conf which looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /home/*****/WordPress
ServerName adambalan.com
</VirtualHost>
I then did:
****#localhost:/etc/apache2/sites-available$
sudo a2ensite adambalan.conf #=> Enabling site adambalan.
One The site is adambalan.com not adambalan.
So I thought, ok ill just restart apache like it told me too ...
When I do and try and go to adambalan.com I don't get my Wordpress stuff, which is all set up[ and ready to go. All I get is the typical - omg apache works. So I don't think the virtual host worked.
Ideas?
I am assuming the main httpd.conf has NameVirtualHost *:80. If not, please add.
Eventhough you are connecting to http://adambalan.com, your browser may be connecting to http://www.adambalan.com if the DNS resolves www.adambalan.com but not adambalan.com.
To cover your bases, use ServerName and ServerAlias in adambalam.conf.
ServerName adambalan.com
ServerAlias www.adambalan.com
Give it a try.

I have a server running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Pound 2.6 and Apache 2.2. I have also the apache module mod_rpaf (installed from https://github.com/gnif/mod_rpaf) installed and enabled to ensure, that in the variable REMOTE_ADDR appears the real user ip address and not the address of the proxy.
This works fine, but the variable REMOTE_HOST is not changed by mod_rpaf. This variable contains "localhost" and not the host of the given user ip address.
Can you help me, please?
Here is my mod_rpaf configuration:
root#perseus ~ # cat /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/rpaf.conf
RPAF_Enable On
RPAF_ProxyIPs 127.0.0.1
RPAF_Header X-Forwarded-For
RPAF_SetHostName On
RPAF_SetHTTPS On
RPAF_SetPort On
Thank you
Check theses answers on a previous question about a missing REMOTE_HOST:
REMOTE_HOSTS is a variable that may or may not be populated by apache (and it's better if it is not set, else it imply a DNS query by apache for every incoming request). So Nothing on your code should rely on REMOTE_HOST. No application should assume this variable will be there and correctly filled.
mod_rpaf does what it is designed for, documentation:
Sets REMOTE_ADDR, HTTPS, and HTTP_PORT to the values provided by an upstream proxy.
Now you have a working REMOTE_ADDR, which is the only variable you should trust, make a copy of it in REMOTE_HOST if you really wants that, and simply do it in your application code.
There is a bug in Ubuntu LTS 12.04 that prevents rpaf to work at all.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libapache2-mod-rpaf/+bug/1002571
workaround
in rpaf.conf replace
<IfModule mod_rpaf.c>
by
<IfModule mod_rpaf-2.0.c>

I installed XAMPP and have an apache server running. My files are located on C:/xampp/htdocs and are acessible from a www.mydomain.etc, but I would like www.mydomain.etc/foo to be read by C:/somewhere_else instead. How is this possible?
Enable mod_alias and add this to httpd.conf:
Alias /foo c:/somewhere_else
You just go into your httpd config file, which probably is located at something like this:
C:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf
Open it, and do the following changes, change to your new directory.
Change the lines:
.
.
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs"
.
.
<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs">
.
.
Restart Apache and xampp and you should be up and running.

I have enabled mod proxy to serve my jsp and servlets and it seem to work fine. So if i hit localhost, it takes request to tomcat and executes it. What is want is that servlets and jsp are forwarded to tomcat while php is handled by apache. Both JSP/Servlets and PHP files are in the same folder and I need to make a call from JSP?Servlet to PHP or may be vice versa as well. Now the problem is that PHP is also forwarded to tomcat it seems if I use following pattern -
ProxyPass /auto http://serv.corp.com:8080/auto/
All JSP/Servlets and PHP files are inside auto folder which is in webapps folder.
Kindly help me to route static content i.e. PHP to apache.
To server static content by Apache and remain files by appserver (jboss in my case)..
httpd.conf of Apache should look as:--
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache2/htdocs
ProxyPass / !
ProxyPass / https://www.example.com:8443/
ProxyPassReverse / https://www.example.com:8443/
here for example /logo.gif will be served directly by
Apache from the /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/logo.gif file.
And everything else will be served by appserver.
Hope it will be useful
You want to use ProxyPassMatch rather than ProxyPass. Something like (untested)
ProxyPassMatch ^/(.*\.php)$ !

I'm having trouble figuring out what's the proper way to setup a SSL virtual host + a non-SSL copy of it.
I have it like this now:
<VirtualHost myip:80>
plenty of directives here
</VirtualHost>
and
<VirtualHost myip:443>
same directives as above
</VirtualHost>
And it works fine but every time I edit the directives in one of the vhosts, I must do it in the other as well. Anything cleaner and more elegant?
To run a website on both HTTP and HTTPS URLs, your only option is to run 2 separate VirtualHosts with the same DocumentRoot.
If the directives context allows, you can keep some of the common settings in a .htaccess file in a folder that is parent to both DocumentRoots.
