[Answered] Can I deploy a war file in lighttpd?

Added by Markus5 about 8 years ago

I have a war file that deploys in tomcat7. I want to deploy it in lighttpd.
Can I do that?
Can someone give me a pointer to some instructions, documentation, or examples? Thanks.

Unfortunately, AJP protocol is not supported in the current release branch (1.4.x) or the current development version (2.0.x).

(While support for AJP is present in the 1.5.x branch, I don't recommend it, as that branch is no longer being developed.)

Thank you. We will continue to use Tomcat for deploying our Java web services. We use Lighttpd for deploying our C web services. Some project are beginning to overlap and we were investigating any chance for convergence. However, Lighttpd has such a small footprint, we may simply use both Tomcat and Lighttpd, if that becomes necessary.

For future reference, will there be any support in the development stream?

Yes, but unfortunately no ETA at the moment.

lighttpd 1.4.59 adds mod_ajp13, implementing the AJP 1.3 protocol as a Tomcat connector so that lighttpd can sit in front of Tomcat server(s).
