In the Configuring Virtual Hosts in Geronimo-Tomcat section we describe how to define a Virtual Host in the Geronimo's config.xml so applications could be deployed to specific hosts ( Virtual Hosts) with a minimal configuration on the application deployment plans side. The need to define Virtual Hosts at the server level ( config.xml ) only applies to Geronimo with Tomcat distributions.

...

  1. Create a HelloWorld directory somewhere in the file system, from now on we will reference this location as <HelloWorld_home>.
  2. Create a HelloWorld.jsp file in the <HelloWorld_home> directory and paste the following content. Code BlockXMLtitle XMLSolidHelloWorld.jspborderStyleSolidXML <html> <head> <jsp:useBean id="datetime" class="java.util.Date"/> <title>Basic HelloWorld JSP</title> </head> <body bgcolor="#909DB8"> <h1><font face="tahoma" color="white">Hello world from GERONIMO!</font></h1> <font face="tahoma" color="white">on ${datetime}</font> </body> </html>
  3. Create a WEB-INF directory under <HelloWorld_home>.
  4. Create a web.xml file in the <HelloWorld_home>\WEB-INF directory and paste the following content. Code BlockXMLtitle XMLSolidweb.xmlborderStyleSolidXML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>HelloWorld.jsp</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> </web-app>
  5. Create a geronimo-web.xml file in the <HelloWorld_home>\WEB-INF directory and paste the following content. Code BlockXMLtitleXMLSolidgeronimo-web.xmlborderStyleSolidXML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web-1.2"> <environment> <moduleId> <groupId>sample.applications</groupId> <artifactId>HelloWorldApp</artifactId> <version>2.0</version> <type>war</type> </moduleId> </environment> <context-root>/hello</context-root> <!-- Add this line to define a new Virtual Host in Geronimo - Jetty --> <virtual-host>virtualhost1.com</virtual-host> </web-app>

If you compare this deployment plan with the one described in the Quick start - Apache Geronimo for the impatient section you will note that only one line has been added, that is <virtual-host>virtualhost1.com</virtual-host>. This is all you need to define a virtual host in Geronimo with Jetty.

Note that even when the successful deployment message on screen shows that the application has been deployed to the http://XYZ:8080/hello host, the application will only be accessible via the virtual host previously defined in the <virtual-host> tag on the geronimo-web.xml deployment plan.
