10 Must-Do Tasks When You Install a New Computer System- Here's how to battle this beast of a problem.
By Craig Webb
Hercules knew a thing or two—a dozen, actually—about challenges. The Greeks immortalized him 2,600 years ago with tales of his 12 heroic labors, like cleaning the Augean stables and slaying a hydra that sprouted multiple heads each time one was cut.
LBM executives aren't Hercules, but they know about herculean tasks. For most dealers, no job takes more out of them and their company than implementing a new computer system. You can sense the fear, frustration, and fatigue as they describe journeys that routinely took two years to complete and threatened to cripple their company along the way. There's no such thing as a painless system transition, everyone said, but if you strive to do certain things you'll increase your odds of success.

Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) is pleased to announce the acquisition of EDP, a company listed on The London Stock Exchange. EDP supplies sales analytics & CRM and ERP software, such as Vecta and Quantum, to merchants and other distributors. The K8 ERP solution, developed by KCS, is widely used in similar markets, where the company has over 40 years of experience and is a recognised thought leader in trading and management technology. Clearly the acquisition is a good fit for both businesses.
During the past eight years KCS has grown rapidly, both organically and through the acquisition of a number of businesses, to extend its geographical reach, add product capability and extend into adjacent vertical markets. The company now serves over 10,000 customers across Europe, South Africa and the United States.
By integrating the EDP business with KCS, all customers will be offered a more extensive product suite. KCS will also offer the Vecta CRM/BI product to its wider global customer base as a stand-alone product, as well as integrating it as a module within some of the KCS products. KCS will continue to service and support customers using EDP's Quantum, Merchant, Charisma, Esprit and The Business Programme products. Over time, KCS will offer alternative products (such as its core K8 ERP system) to EDP customers, as potential longer-term solutions.
Commenting on the acquisition, Ian Bendelow, Chief Executive Officer of KCS said, "The acquisition of EDP is a great opportunity to accelerate our strategy. It brings us greater presence in the UK and an increased platform for growth in our traditional markets. EDP is a high quality business with customer offerings that are highly complementary to KCS. We welcome EDP employees to the group and look forward to working with them."
Sir Michael Heller, Non-Executive Chairman of EDP said, "The EDP and KCS businesses have been good competitors for many years, addressing the needs of customers in the same vertical markets. Accordingly the EDP directors believe that KCS' activities provide a strong fit with those of EDP and that KCS is an appropriate partner to continue the development of the EDP business. The additional resources that KCS will bring will mean that it is well positioned and resourced to support EDP and the future growth of the EDP business."
CARY, NC – August 14, 2018- Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) is pleased to announce that Parr Lumber Company has chosen K8 as their next generation ERP solution. Parr Lumber Company will deploy K8 to help manage their mission critical, day-to-day business processes. The Parr Lumber Company team found K8's depth of functionality exceeded expectations to support future growth as they look ahead to accelerate their strategic growth plans.
Parr Lumber Company, established in 1930 in the Pacific Northwest, remains a locally owned family business today. Headquartered in Hillsboro, Oregon, Parr Lumber Company is among the top twenty largest building materials suppliers in the United States. Although Parr Lumber Company is their core business, they have grown beyond being a building materials company and proudly operate 33 facilities in Oregon and Washington. Parr Lumber Company also owns and operates 6 Cabinet Design Centers, Cascade Wholesale, and a growing number of manufacturing facilities.
The Parr Lumber Company team did not take on the task of selecting a new ERP system lightly. Finding an ERP solution that satisfied their current and future needs was only part of the equation; they also wanted to work with a company that shared their values and culture. "Through an extensive evaluation process, Parr Lumber Company has selected K8 software, supplied from KCS, as our next generation ERP solution," stated Doug Wirges, CEO. "We are very confident in our choice and excited to have found an ERP software system which will help us to integrate all of our diverse business components into one operating system. We believe K8 will be the best solution for Parr Lumber Company, with the required depth of functionality to support future growth. In our search we also recognized many shared values and culture with the KCS team; this will be a long-term and rewarding partnership."
"The KCS Team are proud to have been selected by Parr Lumber Company to replace their existing ERP platform with our K8 solution," said Alan Cross, KCS Executive Vice President North America. "Parr Lumber Company has an enviable reputation across the United States for their service to the LBM industry, their employees and the Pacific Northwest communities they serve, and we are looking forward to a long and successful partnership together to support their strategic business vision."

Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) announced today that 2J Supply Company selected K8 as the replacement ERP system for their HVAC distribution business.
2J Supply is a family-owned and operated HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) distributor supplying heating and air conditioning products since 1962. They have ten locations throughout Ohio, Kentucky, and Virginia with headquarters in Dayton, Ohio. 2J Supply's mission is to supply an easy and efficient experience for their contractors by providing a full arsenal of equipment, training, and services needed to give homeowners the comfort they need. Their goal is to help HVAC contractor's increase sales and profitability, and they are committed to outstanding customer service.
2J Supply approached the ERP evaluation process with caution since they have been running their distribution business on the same system for many years. They formed a team of key associates from all areas of their business and completed a comprehensive search involving many demonstrations and in-depth evaluation. Not only did they find K8 to be a superior software but they will benefit from real-time key business metrics, workflows will improve, and they believe K8 will lead to improvements in all aspects of their business. They also found K8 to be extremely user-friendly and intuitive making the implementation process easier for their employees.
"The KCS team really listened to our needs," commented Jason Trimbach, CEO. "Their insights and dedication to our business were clear from the beginning. Plus, K8 is a better product, so it was easy to enter into this relationship with KCS."
"Our team worked closely with 2J Supply to demonstrate that K8 was the right choice for them," commented Alan Cross, Executive Vice President North America. "They had a clear vision for the future of their business and how they wanted to take advantage of the flexibility and functionality of the software. KCS is proud to be working with 2J Supply and look forward to a long, productive partnership together."

CARY, NC - June 25, 2018- Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) is pleased to announce that R&M Lumen Electrical Inc have successfully implemented K8.

Kerridge Commercial Systems' K8 software has delivered cost and time savings across every area business for wholesaler, Bonus Electrical. A key element of the software is its ability to provide the business intelligence that the management team needed, enabling them to analyze sales in more depth…
Bonus Electrical is the wholesaling division of the East Yorkshire-based, family owned, Bonus Electrical group. Established nearly 60 years ago, the group also owns an electrical retail superstore, a solar P.V. distribution company, and supplies electrical kits to caravan and mobile home manufacturers. Bonus Electrical is the largest independent wholesaler in Hull and a key supplier to local health authorities, councils, schools, colleges, contractors, and industry.
Company spokesperson, Carl Dearing, said: "Unlike national wholesaling groups, who have very strict rules, Bonus is extremely flexible. Where local competitors may have one or two vehicles and offer a next day delivery service, we offer a shuttle service using a large fleet of vans. If we have what customers want in stock, the average delivery time is 90 minutes."
Bonus also offers its major customers a free call out service during evenings and weekends, the facility for stock holding, and warehousing for a council home maintenance company – with whom they have just renewed a three-year supply contract. In 2013 the Bonus management team was tasked with doubling the turnover in two years. At the time they were using "an antiquated, character-based system that was always crashing," and although the old system could not produce the reports they needed, a change of system was considered "too disruptive." But when it became clear that the old system was collapsing, the search for a new solution began.
'Distraction of change'
As a member of the ANEW buying group, the Bonus team asked other members for suggestions. They discovered, however, that many others companies were also using quite old systems and had the same anxieties about the distraction of change. Then the manager of a local builders' merchant suggested looking at their K8 system.
The brief Bonus eventually gave to Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS), the company that develops K8, and two other software providers was for a system that would give the company all the business intelligence they needed in a format that was usable and accurate. Staff should also be able to use the system competently as soon as it went live.
Said Carl: "We ultimately chose K8 because of the attitude of the KCS salesperson. He really listened to all our concerns, and we felt he genuinely understood them. The fact KCS had implemented systems for other electrical wholesalers, whereas the other providers hadn't, also gave us comfort.
"The frustrations we expected when the system went live never happened. There was some firefighting during the first six months over printer interfaces and a snagging list that we worked through at our weekly meetings with KCS, but we never stopped trading or lost any business."
Being able to send out invoices by email delivered the first immediate cost and time-saving benefits. And, on the trade counter, staff were now able to access accurate pricing which speeded up service straight away. The internal sales team was also able to access the customer history they needed more quickly and easily.

We are delighted to announce that Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) has been ranked No. 37 in The Sunday Times HSBC International Track 200, a league table that ranks the top 200 of Britain's mid-market private companies in order of fastest growing overseas sales.
The league table is produced by Fast Track, the Oxford firm that researches and ranks Britain's top performing private companies. When surveying the companies, Fast Track also found that the US is the most popular country for overseas sales, with 118 of the 200 companies citing it as a major market. It is also the top choice for future growth, with more than half the firms (107) planning to expand there.
Fast Track also believed the league table shows the resilience of Britain's mid-market exporters. Despite the uncertainty created by the on-going Brexit negotiations, their combined international sales have grown by an average of 62% a year over the last two years to a total of £10.1bn, the highest growth rate measured in the survey since 2013.
The Sunday Times reported that it was another sign of confidence that 60 of the listed companies had chosen to acquire overseas businesses to help accelerate their growth – up from 46 last year. The six strategic acquisitions KCS made recently in Europe, the US and South Africa were obviously instrumental in our international sales reaching £24m in 2017.
The full league table was published as an eight-page supplement with the business section of The Sunday Times on 10 June, both in print and in the digital edition and on: www.fasttrack.co.uk/company_profile/kerridge-commercial-systems/

AGP will continue to maintain and support its existing solutions, including Trade, Rent, Projects and Installware. In time they will introduce new benefits to their customers from the KCS portfolio such as advanced e-commerce and Cloud services, along with an optional upgrade path to the established suite of KCS services and products. To further support existing customers of its K8 ERP system, KCS will look at integrating some of the solutions from the AGP suite.
Ian Bendelow, KCS Group CEO, said, "As a key strategic acquisition in the Benelux, this further strengthens our presence on the European continent, and expands our service capabilities and product offerings. As we further our platform for growth, AGP affirms and aligns with our on-going business strategy of focusing on the needs of merchants, wholesalers, retailers and distributors.

They have purchased a K8 system to include Web Builder. Mill Creek will leverage the KCS product portfolio to take their business above current industry standards and prepare for future growth.

As a full-service building material supplier, they provide everything needed for building materials including windows and doors, roofing, custom millwork, hardware, and floor coverings.
Mill Creek CFO, Wade Lennon, stated, "Kerridge Commercial Systems is a leading software company that provides a highly integrated system with proven capabilities in two core industries that are vital to Mill Creek – lumber and building materials as well as flooring materials. The software, combined with KCS's culture and drive to work with its customers, proved to be the right solution for our company."
"Mill Creek is an innovator in the LBM industry. They recognize KCS as a partner in innovation with a product portfolio to back that up," said Alan Cross, KCS Executive Vice President North America.

December 2017 - Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS), a market-leading global provider of software solutions to the retail, wholesale, merchant and distribution markets, has reached an agreement to acquire Lakeview Computers (Lakeview), Dartford, UK.
UK headquartered KCS already provides software to 14,700 customers worldwide, offering end to end ERP solutions including Supply Chain Management, Financial Management, CRM, Warehouse Management, Transport Management, Business Intelligence, ePOS, and more, specifically for the distribution and manufacturing markets.

The Lakeview business is seen as complementary to KCS's current product portfolio and market positioning. On completion of this acquisition, the KCS operation will provide solutions to over 14,950 customers and in excess of 190,000 users.
The acquisition has been welcomed by Lakeview and their products will continue to be maintained and supported. KCS will look to investigate opportunities for the Lakeview solutions leveraging off KCS's existing infrastructure and product portfolio. While with all ERP solutions there will be a set of common functionality, Lakeview's products are clearly focused on the SME market whilst K8 (the KCS product) offers scalability and covers a wider set of verticals within manufacturing and distribution.
Speaking about the acquisition, Ian Bendelow, CEO of KCS commented "This is a key acquisition for us. It immediately gives us a greater presence in the UK market and an increased platform for growth in our traditional markets. Fundamentally both Lakeview and KCS offer customers value via functionally rich solutions and continuous development that is highly responsive to our customers evolving needs. Lakeview and KCS are a great match."
Lakeview will operate as an independent business unit of KCS with a new brand to emphasize the synergy with KCS. The entire Lakeview staff will be working alongside the KCS team to ensure the success of the Lakeview/KCS integration.

"We liked K8 because of its ability to deal with timber lengths and widths and the fact it had an integrated financial package."
Graham Knox, Managing Director, I.J.K Timber Group
I.J.K Timber Group, a lumber company, operating from two sites in Northern Ireland, is about to implement K8 software from Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS). The Belfast and Dungannon based company imports and distributes softwood and hardwood as well as constructional and decorative panel products.
Trading as Irvin & Sellers, Keizer Venesta and Northern Hardwood in the Irish market, the team completed a management buyout in May 2004 from their previous owners - who bought the companies from Meyer International in 1991. Today they supply kitchen manufacturers, joinery works, builders' merchants, shop fitters, furniture manufacturers, and builders.
The I.J.K team decided to upgrade to K8 because their existing, aging system lacked the functionality they needed for stock management and reporting. "Our existing system was causing us to do too many workarounds in order to get the management information we needed to make better decisions," said Managing Director, Graham Knox. "We liked K8 because of its ability to deal with lumber lengths and widths and the fact it had an integrated financial package. We'll also be using the CRM, warehouse management, and delivery scheduling functions within K8 and are looking forward to working with the KCS team to integrate our hardwood tally devices into the system."
Graham believes once K8 is in place he will be able to enhance customer service levels through the simplified sales order process which will deliver a shorter lead time between receipt of orders and deliveries. "Some of K8's features will be new to us as a business, such as automated order confirmations and automated purchase forecasting. And, because we'll be able to access product information much faster and be able to streamline and simplify many of our existing processes, I'm confident we will soon see efficiencies."
Graham said he has been impressed with the KCS team who are very knowledgeable about the lumber industry. "They were really interested in understanding how we like to do business and I'm looking forward to a smooth transition to the new system."
"One of the key messages for our customers to take away was that in challenging trading environments, they can rely on K8 and the Kerridge Commercial Systems team to support their businesses..."
Andrew Wilkinson, European Sales Director, Kerridge Commercial Systems

CARY, NC – May 31, 2017 – Dancik, a Kerridge Commercial Systems Company, provider of integrated software solutions focused on servicing the building materials, lumber, floor coverings, electrical and plumbing distribution, wholesale and retail markets, announced today that Premier Tile purchased a 35 user SaaS license for Navigator, DNav-BI, DNav-Online, and DNav-EDI.
Premier Tile is a leading distributor of tile, stone, LVP/LVT, brick and related accessories. With locations in Kansas City, Omaha and St. Louis, they serve flooring retailers throughout the Midwest.
Premier Tile has been utilizing their current ERP system since 2005, but it became clear that their usage had challenged its capabilities. Additionally, there were many instances in which they could not service their customers in the floor covering business as well as they would like because the system was not designed specifically for flooring. Concerns with hardware infrastructure, lack of future scalability and limited hosting options lead them to select a new business management solution.
"Premier Tile chose Dancik for its ERP solution for a number of reasons," stated Kerry Reiss, Controller at Premier Tile Corporation. "They are the industry leader for floor covering distribution companies, 100% cloud based, and offer customer access immediately. Also, they are scalable, allowing us to not only meet the needs of today but to easily scale to the needs of tomorrow."
Alan Cross, Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) Executive Vice President of North America, said, "We are delighted to be working with Premier Tile. Our business management solutions are built on over 25 years of industry specific research and development. We are excited to deliver the next generation flooring ERP to support Premier's growing business."
Dancik will work in close collaboration with Premier Tile to ensure a successful implementation avoiding downtime and data corruption issues.
Dancik International, a Kerridge Commercial Systems company and provider of integrated software solutions focused on servicing the building materials, lumber, floor coverings, home décor, electrical and plumbing distribution, wholesale and retail markets, announced today that the Cronin Company went live on Navigator (DNav).
The Cronin Company was founded in 1878 and has grown into one of the Northwest's leading independent wholesale distributors of fine floor covering products. The Cronin Product line includes ceramic tile, hardwood, luxury vinyl tile, WPC products, laminate flooring, plastic laminate, quartz, solid surfacing and a complete range of installation supplies.
"We found that Dancik has a superior integrated inventory management solution that will allow us to be productive and operate more efficiently. We are excited to implement the tools that Dancik provides into our daily operations," commented Heidi Mandell, President of The Cronin Company.
Throughout the go-live process, The Cronin Company continues to be extremely happy with functionality within the solution provided by Dancik.
Dancik International is pleased to announce that QDI Surfaces selected Dancik Navigator (DNav), DNav-bi, DNav-online, DNav-wms and DNav-showroom manager as the integrated business management solution to support them through innovative growth.
QDIstone is in the business of supplying a vast variety of high-quality natural stone tile, mosaic tile, and pavers at very affordable pricing to the US market. They are an industry leader fully dedicated to natural stone and products that accent and compliment them.
They selected DNav because their current ERP was unable to support them through innovative growth. They found DNav to be the integrated business solution needed to run their entire business.
"As QDI Surfaces continues to grow, we are excited to partner with Dancik International as our software partner of choice. During our research we found Dancik to have the best combination of product and industry expertise to assist us in our continued growth for many years to come." Tom Orsat, Organizational Planning
Dancik International is pleased to announce that A World of Tile chose Dancik Navigator (DNav) as the ideal ERP to support every aspect of their business.
A World of Tile was founded in 1989 in Denver, CO. They are a 16 branch company that specializes in retail tile sales. The company is expecting a steady increase in sales in the coming years and found DNav to be the business solution to support every aspect of their business.

Dancik International, a Kerridge Commerical Systems Company, announced today that Quemere Designs has selected K8 via a five user SaaS license to support their handcrafted tile business.
Quemere International Handmade Tile began production in 1987. Quemere tiles are known for having a very detailed handcrafted finish. They are constantly developing new designs, glazes, and colors. Works orders drive their business and K8 was determined to offer the best works orders feature set they had seen in the market.
"I know we made the right decision when we chose K8. We gained so much more functionality, and now we work faster and much more efficiently."
Stuart Poole, Product Analyst, Elta Automotive
Stuart recommended K8 to his managing director because, as well as being a system that was fast and easy to use, he liked how Kerridge Commercial Systems (KCS) was a 'one product' company, committed to developing its core K8 solution. He was also reassured by KCS's automotive heritage and how several large companies in the industry were already using it successfully.
"A big part of the decision to go with K8 was how effectively it manages rebates, which at the moment we have to track manually."
Mike Davies-Key, Commercial Manager, Markovitz Builders' and Plumbers' Merchants
K8 software goes live at Markovitz Builders' and Plumbers' Merchants this summer. The company had been about to sign with another ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) provider when a fellow merchant suggested they look at K8.
Houston, Texas — It took less than three months for A-H Distributors to implement the Mincron warehouse management solution at their new 150,000-square-foot Distribution Center in New Brunswick, N.J. Project Manager Rene Jones described the process as "very simple" and added that the staff got confident with using it during their preliminary training sessions.
The location is ideal — near major roadways that provide easy access to the DC's five shipping bays for inbound and outbound trucks. Currently, A-H Distributors holds about 7,000 SKUs of plumbing, heating, electrical, PVF, drainage and specialty products in its inventory.
Jones, who has 20 years of experience improving warehouse operations as the founder and President of Total Logistics Solutions.
"Part of my expertise is process flow," he noted. "The Mincron automated system will be very advantageous to A-H Distributors. Everything in that environment revolves around efficiency and accuracy, and this will help them maximize both."
The Mincron StockSmart Warehouse Management System allows distributors to maintain a 99.9% inventory accuracy level while increasing the speed with which staff can receive, pick and ship product.
"Our solution automates warehouse workloads, minimizes disruptions and errors, and enables management to react and respond quickly to customers' special needs," said Mincron Director of Operations Jonathan Lindle. "It also helps distributors capitalize on their use of available space, equipment, and personnel."
Jones agreed. "This system allowed A-H to install higher shelving, which gives them a greater capacity for inventory," he said. "And it works hand-in-hand with their turret material handling machines, which allows staff to dramatically increase their efficiency."
A turret might best be described as a forklift on steroids.
"In a typical warehouse environment with forklifts, drivers are always on the lookout for the aisle and shelf they need," noted Jones. "They also have to stop, turn and raise the forklift each time they handle a product. All of that adds more time to the process."
"A wire guidance system in the floor that is tied into the A-H warehouse management solution runs the turret at the new DC. The product is scanned as it is received, and then the system does the rest until it is in their customers' hands. When the driver locks an order into the system, a wire literally guides the equipment to the exact location. As it gets closer, the lift starts rising, so it is in the perfect position to automatically and accurately handle the product."
Because the DC is new, A-H Distributors has no baseline with which to measure its ROI. However, Jones is confident that the Mincron system will pay for itself quickly.
"It generates reports that calculate productivity levels for every warehouse activity," Jones said. "Being able to analyze that data and make any necessary adjustments is an incredibly valuable tool. And the system will not let the driver pick the wrong item or amount needed. That type of accuracy saves distributors significant time and money in the warehouse."
As Lindle described, "Mincron's warehouse solution is designed to be extraordinarily comprehensive and yet be highly flexible. It works equally well with small branch warehouses and massive distribution centers like A-H. And it effectively drives the processes of strictly structured environments as well as it does for those that are rapidly changing and unpredictable."
HOUSTON, Texas — TWC Distributors has signed an agreement to become Mincron's newest customer. They have chosen our SmartDistributor ERP solution, and plan to be "live" in 2017. TWC is based in Sarasota, Fla., and last year moved into a new headquarters designed by President Tim Milligan. The company operates 10 locations across Florida and Georgia.
Founded in 1989 as an agricultural irrigation distributor, TWC soon expanded to take advantage of the rapidly growing landscape irrigation and supplies market. Since then, they have continued to expand their product lines to meet their customers' changing needs. Their offering now ranges from pumps and filters to septic systems, pond supplies, outdoor lighting and holiday decorative lighting.
According to TWC Technology Manager Tim Millligan Jr., TWC likes the strength of the IBM Power System. He added that they are looking forward "to gaining efficiency, more accurate inventory tracking, and improving their bottom line."
Milligan, who served as the Project Leader for the search of a new ERP system, stated: "The decision was unanimous among the entire team to select Mincron." He is excited to get started with the implementation, and went on to note several other reasons for choosing the Mincron solution:
Smart Distributor is very user-friendly, which was a big factor.
Everything that the software has to offer fits their needs as a distributor.
Their employees will become more productive, and be able to perform their jobs even better.
The 30-year reputation that Mincron has built.
"We are looking forward to doing a lot with Mincron," Milligan shared. "We plan to implement a cycle-counting system, go as paperless as we can, and implement a bar-code system. We are also excited to increase our profit margins because we will be able to easily see where we are currently weak on our price plans."
He added, "I have to say that Mincron has been very easy to work with and have been very professional in everything that has transpired thus far. I'm excited to get started with the implementation!"
FUSION19 was full of networking, learning opportunities and fun with our North America customers.
Providing specialist software, IT services, consultancy and support to deliver a fully integrated trading and management solution to the distributive trades.

Courses, In The Jams, & Jam Packs
"This course is the holy grail for every lead player. If you're wondering why your pentatonic scale just doesn't sound like the pros, and you really want to lock in with every chord in the harmony... this is the course you need. With the Sweet Notes method it doesn't matter if the harmony is in one key or every chord is from a different key. This is probably the most important fretboard knowledge you can learn for your lead playing. It doesn't matter what style you play. And Robbie Calvo is also a very good instructor. He puts all the information in small pieces so you don't get overwhelmed and he really takes the time to tell you everything there is to know."

After editing the httpd.conf file i have restarted the Apache service and at the same time Apache Geronimo was started and in running mode..
I am getting the below error:
Confused? This means either you mistyped, or whoever wrote/configured the page/site/service you just came from screwed up. It happens, don't stress it (and don't blame me.) Apparently I have to spell it out: LĀOĀCĀAĀ host. See? No 'L', so your browser kindly appended .com, and you ended up here, instead of http://localhost/ which you presumably intended.
Note: This is not localhost.com either. Check again. Again. See? No 'L'.
I have installed geronimo application server in my PC, I have installed Apache web server along with this geronimo, When i tried to Configure Apache HTTPd as a reverse proxy (mod_proxy), I am unable to configure, I followed all the below steps that mentioned in the document,
- Open the httpd.conf located in the <httpd_home>\conf directory.
- Look for the following LoadModule directives and uncomment them by removing the # at the beginning of the line.
- LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
- LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
- At the bottom of the httpd.conf add the following lines to enable the re-rounting.
- ProxyPass /console http://localhost:8080/console
- ProxyPass /images http://localhost:8080/images
- ProxyPassreverse / http://localhost:8080/
Both are installed on the same machine, Could you please advice me on this issue, I would really appreciate if i found any response from you.As i need this in an urgent manner.

Merry Christmas everyone. I am taking a break over the holidays until the New Year so enjoy yourselves.
I am blessed this year with a charmed life of sorts. My workplace is an enjoyable place to be, I have food on my table every night, I have close friends whom I trust, and I have close family who is healthy and loved. I am thankful for all of the blessings God has provided.
This Christmas will be different for us as my wife and I have a young son with whom we enjoy spending time. We like playing, making wierd sounds together, eating (mmmm . . . baby food) and reading books! My wife and I are taking time this Christmas to visit with family and friends. In other words we are going to enjoy the finer things in life and I hope everyone else has the same opportunity and is able to sieze it.
I may post this week but I won't post with the usual regularity. Cheers and be safe.
