Hey, as long as we're on the subject of config show and tell, here is what 
we're using for our AJP settings in Tomcat's server.xml:

<Connector port="8009"
    enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8080" protocol="AJP/1.3" 
address="127.0.0.1" tomcatAuthentication="false"
    connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8"/>

And here's a snippet from our Apache config, to show our proxy settings: 
(SetEnv directives borrowed from this thread: 
http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Using+Apache+with+mod_proxy may or 
may not be helping).

<Location "/xmlui">
  ProxyPass         ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/xmlui
  ProxyPassReverse  ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/xmlui
  SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
  SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
</Location>

<Location "/jspui">
  ProxyPass         ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/jspui
  ProxyPassReverse  ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/jspui
</Location>

<Location "/oai">
  ProxyPass         ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/oai
  ProxyPassReverse  ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/oai
  SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
  SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
</Location>

I have a feeling I could do more in this area, to improve stability. I'm very 
wary of just restarting DSpace servlets (by touching the context fragment for 
the application to force a reload) because in the past I've noticed that doing 
so seems to break the proxy connection between Tomcat and Apache. Users see 
"503: service unavailable" errors. We instead stop, pause, and start everything 
(Tomcat, Apache, Handle), any time we need to load a new version of a DSpace 
servlet. Sometimes, erm, we have to do it twice. :-\

Anyone have any tricks for that? I'd love to be able to just reload a servlet, 
instead of starting and stopping the whole jalopy. :-)
