The following message I just posted to the JSERV list may be os some
use too. I've used apache, mod-perl, jserv, and tomcat exhaustively
and have become rather adept at living with its shortcomings. But
those are so deep that �'d never recommend it to others.
Resin (www.caucho.com) is a far better choice if getting work done is
your goal. But see the enclosed message for a complete newcomer. I
only installed this today and have little familiarity with it, but
what I've seen so far says this is definitely worth a closer look.

Copied from JSERV-LIST...
Gang, this is one NICE piece of work. Contratulations!
Everything a new webapp developer might need in one easy to open box,
without the agony of the apache + jserv/mod_jk + tomcat rope-pushing
rigamarole. Installed and ran out-of-box on MacOS-X except for the
two test cases at the end of your list (perl and one of the jsp tests
as I recall). Can provide details if if want.
There's a remarkable contrast between your approach (put everything
in one box, make it work without configuring, make configuring simple
enough that documentation is unnecessary) with the approach now being
considered on tomcat developers list. Tomcat is locked on the rails
of an approach that can't possibly work for anyone but tomcat/apache
insiders. Treating apache, connectors, and tomcat as independent
entities leaves far too much surface area exposed, a problem that no
amount of documentation will ever solve.
I'd like to bundle your package (properly attributed, of course) with
http://virtualschool.edu/jwaa (Java Web Application Architecture) to
make it easier for new developers to get started. Would this be OK
with you?
