Hyperion + Lighttpd

[Martin Heiland]

This seems to be a bug at lighttpd which has been localized and fixed by darix and weigon from the lighttpd development team, thanks for the fast response to ticket #1399. This patch will be upstreamed to the r2001 build.

http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/ticket/1399

You have to patch a sourcefile and recompile lighttpd 1.5 r1992:

src/mod_proxy_backend_ajp13.c -> line 290
-               p = keyvalue_get_value(response_headers, len);
+               p = keyvalue_get_value(response_headers, len & ~AJP13_COMMON_HEADER_CODE);

Works great for me

(do you know anything about the timeframe?)

I don't know. The developer mentioned sometimes this year, it is under heavy developement AFAIR.

mod_jk is a more or less independent module for apache while the lighttpd 1.5 with jk connector is still pre-release software, i'd suggest to keep an eye on it when lighttpd 1.5 is officially stable (do you know anything about the timeframe?)

Hi,

i did not tested it again, but i suppose there were no fixes so far

Hmmm, we'll see what happens in future with. Anyway, I'm afraid it could become a severe bug in case of new Apache release in future...?

Hello Martin,

have you tried again or any clue about your developers have fixed that obviously bug in Hyperion-AJP13 connector with SessionID?

You can change that config a bit without solving JSESSIONID problem.

server.modules += ( "mod_proxy_backend_ajp13" )
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/servlet/|^/ajax/" {
proxy-core.balancer = "round-robin"
proxy-core.protocol = "ajp13"
proxy-core.backends = ( "localhost:8009" )
proxy-core.max-pool-size = 16
}

I think more this way that Lighty version have probs with OX6 AJP13 Servlet/ IOW: Tomcat replacement. It seems to be not that compatible like Lighty - Tomcat. Have you read this yet?

Hi all,

sledge0303 posted some outstanding documentation how to run OX 0.8 with lighttpd. I am not a lighttpd fanatic, but it'll be cool to run OX Hyperion with other Webbrowsers than mighty apache2. I just started research but i almost managed to login It seems that just setting the session cookie prevents me from a successful configuration. Is anybody around who may have a clue how to set the JSESSIONID and open-xchange-session-* cookie using lighty?

So far, i did the following configuration:
Downloaded lighttpd 1.5.0-r1857 (source)
Downloaded lighttpd-1.4.7 (source)
copied lighttpd-1.4.7/debian to lighttpd-1.5.0
applied http://johannburkard.de/resources/Jo...ry_string.diff
dpkg-buildpackage
dpkg -i lighttpd_1.5.0_amd64.deb

lighttpd.conf:

server.modules              = (
                                "mod_access",
                                "mod_status",
                                "mod_cgi",
                                "mod_alias",
                                "mod_auth",
                                "mod_evasive",
                                "mod_proxy_core",
                                "mod_proxy_backend_http",
                                "mod_proxy_backend_fastcgi",
                                "mod_proxy_backend_ajp13",
                                "mod_deflate",
                                "mod_rewrite",
                                "mod_accesslog" )

[...]

#### AJP13
server.modules  += ( "mod_proxy_backend_ajp13" )
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/servlet/" {
        proxy-core.balancer = "round-robin"
        proxy-core.protocol = "ajp13"
        proxy-core.backends = ( "localhost:8009" )
        proxy-core.max-pool-size = 16
        }
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/ajax/" {
        proxy-core.balancer = "round-robin"
        proxy-core.protocol = "ajp13"
        proxy-core.backends = ( "localhost:8009" )
        proxy-core.max-pool-size = 16
        }

This leads to proper servlet functionality, but the server does not set any cookie while login:
Error code: The cookie with the session identifier is missing. (SES-202)

Any suggestions?
