You must have a web server running on each host on which Tarantella is installed. When you install Tarantella, Tarantella Setup also installs the Tarantella Web Server. The Tarantella Web Server is a web server which has been pre-configured for use with Tarantella. It consists of:
Note The Apache web server includes all the standard Apache modules as shared objects.
If you have an existing web server on the Tarantella host, this won't be affected by the Tarantella Web Server as this will be listening on a different port. You do not have to use the Tarantella Web Server, but to use your own web server you will have to configure it for use with Tarantella.
The Tarantella Web Server is also configured to be a secure (HTTPS) web server. You just need to install an appropriate server certificate or share the certificate used by the Tarantella Security Pack.
Every web server in an array of Tarantella servers must use the same HTTP (or HTTPS) port. You must not mix HTTP and HTTPS web servers in the same Tarantella array.
You control the Tarantella Web Server independently of the Tarantella server,
using the tarantella webserver command.
You can configure the Tarantella Web Server using standard Apache directives, see the Apache documentation for details.
