Are there any plans for better support for nginx in the future?

2

Could you elaborate on what you mean by that? I believe through mod_cfml
and proxy_http you get everything you should need…

You need a J2EE server. It doesn’t need to be tomcat, but you can’t run
Nginx direct to Lucee. You can run Lucee on undertow or any other J2EE
server. (Nor can you run Lucee through something like fastcgi - you need a
servlet container)

What does adding Nginx to the mix give you?

Personally I use Nginx in front of Lucee/ACF for cookie rewrites and to
serve static content, and I have Tomcat+Nginx on one server, and load
balance requests coming into Nginx. But you could have a Nginx cluster,
and a Lucee cluster, if you wanted to. Or just load balance between Lucee
instances. Tomcat can be used in production.

If you only have one Web context you don’t need mod_cfml.

servers or on the same server as lucee/tomcat? Is there any way to get
tomcat out of the loop?

A writeup/reference with sample config files would be great. I don’t
understand what mod_cfml does either.

Thanks for your patience.

FWIW, here’s a snippet from our nginx config’s proxy settings. ymmv:

location / {
proxy_set_header X-Original-Url $request_uri;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_cookie_path /mysite/ /;

    proxy_read_timeout 1200;
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8888/mysite$request_uri;

Deamach,

What mod_cfml does is to allow you to run multiple virtual hosts in tomcat
without having to configure each host/wwwroot in the server.xml file. It is
not a requirement to run multiple virtual hosts, it simply makes
configuration easier and more like what people are used to with ACF.

If you are looking for some example of working with nginx and lucee you can
take a look at this: GitHub - foundeo/ubuntu-nginx-lucee: Script for standing up a Lucee server using nginx and Tomcat on Ubuntu it does
use mod_cfml by default.–

I’ve always used Nginx for SSL termination. I have not tried it with ELB
but I’d imagine there are some pitfalls if your requirements get less
standard, Nginx is just so flexible I don’t want to use anything else.On Tuesday, 24 January 2017 11:06:34 UTC+11, Daemach Laratin wrote:

Well, yeah, but from an AWS scaling perspective, you wouldn’t have the
cert on every individual guest, you’d have one LB, whether that’s ELB or
nginx or whatever. You might still have a non-ssl nginx on each VM, if you
want that server to serve static requests or rewrite requests before Lucee
gets them.

Personally I use Nginx in front of Lucee/ACF for cookie rewrites and
to serve static content, and I have Tomcat+Nginx on one server, and load
balance requests coming into Nginx. But you could have a Nginx cluster,
and a Lucee cluster, if you wanted to. Or just load balance between Lucee
instances. Tomcat can be used in production.

If you only have one Web context you don’t need mod_cfml.

Is ngnix or elb a better option to terminate SSL and load balance?On Mon, Jan 23, 2017 at 1:41 PM, Joseph Gooch <@Joseph_Gooch> wrote:

Well, yeah, but from an AWS scaling perspective, you wouldn’t have the
cert on every individual guest, you’d have one LB, whether that’s ELB or
nginx or whatever. You might still have a non-ssl nginx on each VM, if you
want that server to serve static requests or rewrite requests before Lucee
gets them.

You can use nginx as a Load Balancer :wink:

Using Nginx With ColdFusion or Lucee - Nando @ Aria Media

Configuring hosts in server.xml is simple and straightforward. I don’t
use mod_cfml.

Big advantage for me having nginx in front is configuring ssl on nginx
is significantly easier than dealing with uploading certs to Java.

Deamach,

What mod_cfml does is to allow you to run multiple virtual hosts in
tomcat without having to configure each host/wwwroot in the server.xml
file. It is not a requirement to run multiple virtual hosts, it simply
makes configuration easier and more like what people are used to with ACF.

If you are looking for some example of working with nginx and lucee you
can take a look at this: GitHub - foundeo/ubuntu-nginx-lucee: Script for standing up a Lucee server using nginx and Tomcat on Ubuntu
it does use mod_cfml by default.
