Running activiti-explorer behind Apache

I've got Activiti deployed in Tomcat and can access /activiti-explorer fine directly through Tomcat (port 8080), but can't access it through an Apache httpd instance reverse-proxying in front of Tomcat.  Mod_jk passes the requests through correctly, and I can get to the login page… but when I put in the kermit/kermit credentials in the login form, it doesn't submit.  Looking at the HTTP traffic show that that some requests are going to port 8080.  Is there a config file in the activiti-explorer webapp that is putting the app server's URL in the Javascript somewhere?

There is no special configuration needed. Here is an example, a vanilla (5.12) explorer deployed on cloudbees, running on a non-localhost non-8080 port.

Yeah – you're right.  I restarted everything and now it works.  It's possible something was cached on either the server side or client side.  I originally hit http://localhost:8080/activiti-explorer and was able to login.  Then I hit http://localhost/activiti-explorer, the login page rendered, but I could see in the HTML source that the form was posting to http://localhost:8080/…, which was why it was failing. 

Anyway, works now.  Thanks! - Bill
