I had a very similar situation, I solved it by regarding the suffix. In my Apache DocumentRoot are all directories with static content. I only mount the following
JkMount / worker2
JkMount /*.html worker2
JkMount /*.xml worker2
Is 'JK2' the best one to be using now? I am a bit confused between mod_webapp (warp) and JK[n] TBH.I actually use JK1.2 ajp13 connector (works fine with Jetty, too)
OK, that's good the hear. I am testing on MacOSX, and that's the only version available ATM.
I formerly used mod_webapp, which is simple to setup, but less flexible in managing the urispace. Apart from this it does not support load-balancing and has it has turned out to be not as stable as my current solution.OK, I have used mod_webapp before for simpler stuff, and it has been stable.
I experimented with jk2, too. Big advantage with jk2 is that you don't have to change the httpd.conf with every change in your mounts (you keep them in a separate file workers2.properties).Do you mean this is where you differentiate between different Servlets? Or do you do more than that in this file? I've never used one before, except probably the default.
But I had some very strange results with jk2, resources like images and css has been served in a random-like order after some hours with heavy load and my boring pages looked like artwork :-) maybe a cashing problem, never found the reason, so I switched back to jk1.2. (at that time jk2 was still alpha, maybe it is fine now, but AFAIK there is currently no solution with jk2 and Jetty)
You are using Jetty rather than TomCat?
WebAppConnection warpConnection warp ministrant.leonid:8008Sure you'll run into troubles if there are html files in the static directories, or you rename it to *.htm
Can't change the urls ;)The problem here, is relying on suffixes ..... we cannot .....I you find a more flexible solution, please tell me.
As I remember, mapping '/' to mod_webapp stopped Apache from serving ANYTHING.
WebAppDeploy cocoon warpConnection /
this works, but now EVERYTHING is handled by cocoon. (That's maybe what you mean)
exactly
But as you imply in your sample above, this is not the case with JK2?Yes, this will work - with the drawback, that you probably have to update httpd.conf very often.
So I would be able to map a long list of folders to JK2 and have everything else automatically handled by Apache?
eg.
JkMount / worker2
JkMount /index worker2
JkMount /index.* worker2
JkMount /archive/* worker2
JkMount /collaboration/* worker2
JkMount /education/* worker2
JkMount /general/* worker2
JkMount /library/* worker2
JkMount /news/* worker2
JkMount /press/* worker2
JkMount /publications/* worker2
JkMount /season/* worker2
JkMount /search/* worker2
JkMount /x-space/* worker2
Is this going to work?
yeah, not much fun ....
It would be famous if the guys from jk would adopt the cocoon sitemap language. But at present the matching possibilities are very limited. */dir/ or **/dir/* does not work :(Oh would'nt it!
Reading the docs, for JK, (not sure if I understood them correctly), but configuring:
JkOptions +ForwardDirectories
in conjunction with DirectoryIndex ??
quote:
"If ForwardDirectories is set to true and Apache doesn't find any files that match, the request will be forwarded to Tomcat for resolution. This is used in cases when Apache cannot see the index files on the file system for various reasons: Tomcat is running on a different machine, the JSP file has been precompiled etc. "
I do not know if this is relevant to my situation, whereby if an incoming URL does not match a file, the request is automatically sent to TomCat?
A setup like that would make it really easy!
What's more the client could decide at any time to statically render parts of the Cocoon site (that were not changing regularly) and have them served by Apache.
Do you have any experience of these directives?
Will Cocoon 'receive' the whole URL, or just the bit picked up by the '*'?
yes, the whole URL
good to hear!
