How can i force Jetty to open all deployed webapps starting from specific virtual host like test.localhost:8080/myapp instead of localhost:8181/myapp?
Here's snippet from jetty.xml:
<Call name="addConnector"> <Arg> <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector"> <Set name="host"> <Property name="jetty.host"/> </Set> <Set name="port"> <Property name="jetty.port" default="8181"/> </Set> ...
... i tried to play with jetty.host value but still no success. :(
How to?
To LISTEN on a specific network interface, you specify that interface either via its IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) or its hostname.
Since this is a variant of localhost / loopback, then using IP address would be best.
Eg:
$ grep localhost /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 127.0.1.0 test.localhost
Yes, those hosts are on different IPs, intentionally (and valid for the loopback interface).
You could then setup the connector, using the jetty-distribution, for test.localhost:8080 by using the command line (this is jetty 9 syntax)
$ java -jar /path/to/start.jar jetty.host=127.0.1.0 jetty.port=8080
You can also put those command line options into your ${jetty.base}/start.ini as separate lines.
$ grep -E "jetty\.(host|port)" /path/to/my.base/start.ini jetty.host=127.0.1.0 jetty.port=8080
Once jetty is started, you can see what interface it is listening on
$ netstat -tlnp | grep 8080 (Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.) tcp4 0 0 127.0.1.0:8080 :::* LISTEN 14480/java
