I have configured apache 2.2 webserver with tomcat. I want static files of my web application to be served using apache. I made a virtual host entry in httpd.conf
<VirtualHost *:8080>
Alias webcommon_alias C:/webcommon_bk
JkMountFile D:/xampp/apache/conf/myexample.net.properties
ServerName myexample.net
ErrorLog logs/myexample.net-error_log
CustomLog logs/myexample.net-access_log common
<Directory C:/webcommon_bk>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /webcommon/
RewriteRule ((.*)\.(js|css|html|gif|png)$) webcommon_alias/$1
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
But when i fetch this file in browser http://myexample.net:8080/webcommon/img/aboutBox.png i get Object not found! The requested URL was not found on this server.
Try this instead:
<VirtualHost *:8080>
Alias /webcommon C:/webcommon_bk
JkMountFile D:/xampp/apache/conf/myexample.net.properties
ServerName myexample.net
ErrorLog logs/myexample.net-error_log
CustomLog logs/myexample.net-access_log common
<Directory C:/webcommon_bk>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ((.*)\.(js|css|html|gif|png)$) /webcommon/$1.$2
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Systax was checked using sudo apachectl -t.
I checked that mod rewrite is active using sudo a2enmod rewrite and restarted the server with sudo systemctl restart apache2
But this has no effect, with hbiostat.org/blog/* remaining in the addressbar.
Tried:
Many remedies on stackoverflow.com (including the two below) and elsewhere, including putting the commands into an .htaccess file (I'd like to avoid the .htaccess approach).
Any help appreciated.
Redirect domain but keep original url
Redirect subfolder URL but keep original domain name
You can't make the browser display a different domain after a 30x redirect.
mod_rewrite doesn't do what you're thinking it does.
I have Apache (CentOS) server. If I place some audio file in my directory and run them in my browser then getting 403 forbidden error. The whole scenario is:
I have created a player in Adobe Captivate and published that into HTML and integrated into my Spring Boot application. It is working fine on my local machine but after pushing it to server. I am getting Forbidden Error when my player gets loaded and unable to load audio files (mp3) format.

screenshot of the issue:
I'm have a an Apache HTTP server that has a reverse proxy to a tomcat server. However, I only want the reverse proxy to happen when the client uses the subdomain www. This is because I want to use other subdomains to point to other applications, such as email.
e.g. www.example.com will go display the apache tomcat webapp.
The way to do this, I presume, is to configure my DNS so that every subdomain I use will point to my server. Right now, in addition to www, that is server.example.com and posfixadmin.example.com. However, the issue is that all my subdomains end up pointing to tomcat.
So when I try to visit postfixadmin.example.com/setup.php to set up postfixadmin through its web setup, it ends up taking me to my tomcat webapp's 404.
Here is my virtualhost configuration:
<VirtualHost www.example.com:80>
ServerName http://www.example.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080
</Virtualhost>
<VirtualHost server.example.com:80>
ServerName server.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =server.example.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} {END,NE,R=permanent}
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost postfixadmin.example.com:80>
ServerName postfixadmin.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/postfixadmin/public
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_access.log combined
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/postfixadmin/public>
Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
EDIT
It looks like the proxy conf file doesn't do anything (??). I decided to experiment around and change the first virtualhost servername to the following:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName abcd.example.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080
</Virtualhost>
Then, I restarted and reloaded Apache...But for some reason, going to www.example.com STILL took me to the tomcat webapp! Does anyone know what drives this?
As to the DNS: I have set specific CNAME entries for each subdomain including www; all of them point back to the public IP of my server that houses my example.com domain (using # in my case - possible with most DNS, I think). There may be some different strategies on this, but I believe you're on the correct path based on what you've suggested in the question.
As to Apache configuration:
I believe that the http protocol does not need to be specified in the ServerName directive and that, generally, the domain need not appear inside the <VirtualHost>...</VirtualHost> tags.
I should mention that I am relatively unfamiliar with Tomcat but am assuming it is listening at 8080 on the localhost, in which case this should help.
I'm not 100% certain that that is all that is snarling you, but try trimming that ServerName back and doing like so, including the change to the VirtualHost open tag:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080
</Virtualhost>
Your second <VirtualHost> probably requires similar changes, though it also seems that you are directing it to serve requests from the web/network which are coming in on port 8080 -- which I don't believe is your intent.
I think what you want is to also listen on port 80 from the web/network, but to follow these directives if addressed to server.example.com like so:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName server.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =server.example.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} {END,NE,R=permanent}
</VirtualHost>
And finally, similar change to the opening <VirtualHost> tag on the final one:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName postfixadmin.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/postfixadmin/public
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_access.log combined
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/postfixadmin/public>
Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Altogether, this seems more like what you're looking for:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.example.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080
</Virtualhost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName server.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} =server.example.com
RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} {END,NE,R=permanent}
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName postfixadmin.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/postfixadmin/public
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/postfixadmin_access.log combined
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/postfixadmin/public>
Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I got it!
It turns out that the problem was in the ssl configuration file - the :443 ports were overlapping.
Thanks for the help!
I have a site I currently run that works well, but both to learn and to make it more portable, I've been trying to dockerize it. I'm using the offical apache and php images, and setup my virtual hosts identical to how I have on the running site, just with different domains. Unfortunately, while I can get one to work, the second does not.

Originally, I had the first vhost (api.gamersplane) second, but thought maybe it was the server alias that was the problem. Then I switched positions, and even commented out the base (gamersplane.local), but had no luck. This works on the running site, so I can't figure out what's wrong with it.
Checking the headers returned by Postman, I do see it has the Apache and PHP headers, so it seems to be hitting SOMETHING, I just don't know what.
I've set the following up to serve 2 development sites from the same box without using domain names:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
Alias /projecta /var/www/projecta
Alias /projectb /var/www/projectb
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
This works, but how do I direct requests for just the IP address, that is without a site name postfix, to a 'default' site?
You can use mod_rewrite to redirect to defult site.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/$ /projecta [R]
