将网站从tomcat指向Apache服务器

Question

I have a website website1.com on Apache server developed using PHP and deployed in Apache Server.

Now I have implemented a new features/modules in Java and JSP technologies and deployed in Tomcat server. Now what ever I have implemented in Java J2EE techologies should point to the subdomain of actual website website1.com and it should look like subdomain1.website1.com

Both Apache Tomcat and Apache Server resides in the Same machine.

Is that possible? if yes can you please help me how to do that ?

All the environment is set up on LINUX based Server.

You can try using a virtual host with a proxy pass rule. Core of the configuration would be:

NameVirtualHost *:80

# Default host to handle PHP and static content
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/www.website1.com
    ServerName www.website1.com
    # Other directives here
</VirtualHost>

# Tomcat redirector
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/subdomain1.website1.com
    ServerName subdomain1.website1.com
    # Other directives here
    ProxyPass / ajp://website1.com:8009
</VirtualHost>

Assuming you have enabled AJP connecter within your Tomcat configuration and that its running on port 8009.
