This is in extension to my earlier question Railo-Tomcat on existing Apache PHP server.

The tomcat server directory is at /public-html/railo/tomcat/

I had configured a subdomain (app.mydomain.com) from the cPanel to have the docbase at /public-html/railo/tomcat/webapps/ROOT and my application files were all put in that same directory.

Until a few days back, I had my webapp working at app.mydomain.com

Now, all of a sudden, I get a 403 Forbidden error

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /index.cfm on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


Apache/2.2.21 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at app.mydomain.com Port 80

My question: What can I do to get the server to run my application if I go to http://app.mydomain.com/index.cfm

Also a nice-to-have: All static files (*.txt, *.html, *.png, the like) earlier used to give me a 403 (Now everything does). Though this is not priority, it may have something to do with my main problem, and if the two can be solved simultaneously, it'll be a BIG relief

P.S. I'm still a TOTAL newbie with Linux and all this server stuff, and the support is still crap

EDIT

The app is there on http://domain.com:8888/railo/tomcat/webapps/root/index.cfm

EDIT 2

http://app.domain.com:8888/index.cfm?x=2

How do I set up port-forwarding? (or whatever it is called in server-lingo)

Now the problem is: I made an admin module in Flex which resides at http://app.domain.com:8888/admin/index.cfm This tries to access http://app.domain.com:8888/flexservices/gateway because it uses ColdFusion-Flash remoting. This is now giving a 500 error. I'm thinking port forwarding will solve this.

I don't have access to the apache server configuration (but I can modify files in the tomcat directory, so you're going to have to give very exact instructions because the server admins are not very good server admins :P – Pranav Hosangadi Nov 18 '11 at 4:18
