Re: [xwiki-users] Can´t reach xwiki from outside with domainname

Hi! I got the problem solved. There was a problem with my Tomcat and Apache configuration with xwiki. Now xwiki works perfectly, and I am very happy that I can now use it. This is a short installation guide for people who want to use Xwiki in combination with Apache and mod_jk and want to deploy the application manually: 1. Download the war file in the directory you want. 2. Now you have two possibilities: - You can use the Apache Tomcat Manager to deploy (the usual way). If you use this way you can skip the following steps. - You rename the war file to zip and then unzip the file (I did it this way, hopefully it is not completely wrong) 3. Now you can modify the hibernate.conf, see this tutorial step 8 and only 8: http://www.howtoforge.com/xwiki-tomcat-mysql-debian-etch 4. Create if you want or need an alias in the httpd.conf which points to the folder where you have unzipped xwiki. 5. create an xml file with the following content: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Context displayName="xwiki" docBase="/home/tomcat/app/xwiki" path="aloha/xwiki/"> </Context> modify docBase and path to your needs. Aloha is my alias of the xwiki the folder where I stored the xwiki files 6. Use the Tomcat manager to manually deploy the service by using the created xml file. (If someone needs more information to do this please ask) 7. Now xwiki should be accessible by http://domain/alias I hope this will help some people Greetings, Florian -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org] Im Auftrag von Florian Rhomberg Gesendet: Freitag, 27.

The server is behind a firewall that means the servers IP adress is tranformed by the firewall to an external IP adress. I can reach xwiki normally with the internal IP address ( <http://192.168.1.5/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome> http://192.168.1.5/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome) behind the firewall, it works fine even I do not have reconfigured the apache httpd.conf file. But if I call the website externally, I get redirected to <http://127.0.0.1/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome> http://127.0.0.1/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome that does not work. Therefore I tried to change in the xwiki.cfg the path from 127.0.0.1 to the domainname, but nothing has changed. How can I solve this problem. I use an apache 2.2.6 webserver with mod_jk. The folder xwiki is correctly deployed by tomcat. Thank you for your help!
