You need to use a 2.2+ version of HTTPD. I used 2.2.6.

In httpd.conf (or in a file in sites-available on Debian/Ubuntu using a2ensite)

Uncomment (or compile with at least these modules using --enable or on Debian/Ubuntu use a2enmod)

In httpd-ssl.conf

replace (according to your setup, ie. keeping the right pathes)

Code Block
<VirtualHost _default_:443> # General setup for the virtual host DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache2/htdocs" ServerName www.example.com:443 ServerAdmin you@example.com ErrorLog "/usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log" TransferLog "/usr/local/apache2/logs/access_log"

It should work. On Windows the configuration is the same.
Don't forget to edit url.properties file (change 8080 to 80 and 8443 to 443).

Additional notes for configuring mod_ajp_proxy

Sometime it is useful to let Apache Web Server to serve the static resources such as images, css, js etc for performance or other reasons.
In that scenario, you will need to mount the individual OFbiz application. For example:
Mounting Ofbiz application as show below will forward every request to Ofbiz including request for static resources such as images.

Thanks to Raj Saini for this tip

I you need to use an svn repository on the same server the tip is to add

Code Block
proxyPass /svn !

just before

Code Block
proxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/

in the 443 VirtualHost. This will give acces to your svn repsoitory (supposed to be declared as <Location /svn>) only through https. If you need also access through https, do the same in the 80 VirtualHost.
