We do something like this using apache2 mod_proxy and rules like
ProxyPass /<contextroot>
http://<backend-server>:8082/<contextroot>
ProxyPassReverse /<contextroot>
http://<backend-server>:8082/<contextroot>
by slightly following the apache2 reverse proxy tutorial (see [2] for a
starting point). Though I haven't tried this, you might as well be able to
dump /<contextroot> here altogether doin' something like
ProxyPass /
http://<backend-server>:8082/<contextroot>/
ProxyPassReverse /
http://<backend-server>:8082/<contextroot>/
but this however will get you into trouble dealing with your PHP scripts.
Where do they live on the apache2 installation, and how do they have to be
accessed? Easiest way, in my opinion, would be dumping them to a "context
root" of their own on apache2, to have them out of the way, and use your
glassfish context root for proxying your glassfish hosted application.
If not, you might want to try the "ProxyPass / " thing and play with
excluding things from being proxied (see [2] for a short intro on that),
which might or might not get you where you want (untested, as well, but
seems a reasonable way to go...).
Good luck and best regards,
Kristian
