I am currently using Mod_jk to have a connectivity between Apache and Tomcat through non-secure AJP protocol. Is there any way I can implement secure connection? Can I achieve this using mod_proxy_http and proxy over https? As far as I know using mod_proxy_http is also not a secure one.

Can anyone Guide me here? I am using Tomcat 9 and Apache 2.4 versions.

Thanks, Anshu

You can configure a secure connection between Apache and tomcat using Mod_proxy. Refer link1 and link2 for more information.

  • I was using using Mod_JK and now I am implementing Mod_proxy as you suggested.Will accept this if everything works fine. One question, Do mod_proxy provide complete encryption? somewhere I saw that mod_proxy does not provide complete encryption. – Anshu Jun 29 '20 at 12:49
  • Yes. Mod_proxy provides complete encryption. i.e WebBrowser(SSL)---->Apache(SSL)------> Mod_Proxy(SSL)------> Tomcat(SSL) – Pandurang Jun 29 '20 at 13:46
  • ok, let me implement it and will get back to you. Thanks for your quick help. – Anshu Jun 29 '20 at 19:30
  • It's working and I can see the encrypted traffic now. Thanks again, Accepting your answer. – Anshu Jun 30 '20 at 08:59
