Help in URL Redirection between Apache and JBoss

[Parvathy]

Hi..
I am new to Apache.. I face issues in redirection of pages between Apache and JBOSS.
The page is working fine when i hit the URL https://example.com/test.
My requirement is to land in the same page when i hit the URL https://example.com without providing the context root "/test".
Kindly help in resolving this issue.

I would give jboss another chance for doing http authentication.
I'll tell you what files you should modify:

* web.xml: say wich resources should be secured and how
 
     <security-constraint>
<display-name>acceso seguro</display-name>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>fullSite</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>normalUser</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>
 
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<realm-name>myLogin</realm-name>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/logon/logon.jsp</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/logon/logonError.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
You should modify this to do http authentication.
 
<security-role>
<role-name>normalUser</role-name>
</security-role>
 
* jboss-web.xml (located in the same directory as web.xml
 
<jboss-web>
      <security-domain>java:/jaas/mySecurityDomain</security-domain>    </jboss-web>
 
* login-config.xml (in your application jboss conf directory)
 
<application-policy name="mySecurityDomain">
<authentication>
            <login-module
code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.DatabaseServerLoginModule"
flag="required">
<module-option name="dsJndiName">java:/genesisDS</module-option>
<module-option name="principalsQuery">select password from Usuario where userid=?</module-option>
<module-option name="rolesQuery">select rolId, 'Roles' from Usuario_Rol where userId=?</module-option>
<module-option name="hashAlgorithm">SHA</module-option>
<module-option name="hashEncoding">base64</module-option>
<module-option name="hashCharset">UTF-8</module-option>
</login-module>
       </authentication>
</application-policy>

If you set those files correctly you should get the http login window, managed directly by jboss (tomcat running inside jboss actually).
