Re: window 98/tomcat set up ?? FAQ page down
Tomcat unpaks to jakarta-tomcat unless you renamed the directory... If this is the case, you'll need to update your TOMCAT_HOME var Bill Ciaran Scullion wrote: Hi I am trying to set up tomcat for use on windows 98 and visual Cafe .

Configuration Files in /conf directory
Hi, We're running Apache 1.3.12 with Tomcat 3.1 and have several questions regarding the configuration files in the /conf directory (Windows NT) I read in the documentation that the tomcat-apache.conf file is generated when you start Tomcat. Are any of the other files used as input to Tomcat when generating this file ?? Originally I thought that if I made changes to the tomcat.conf file, this would be used as input to create tomcat-apache.conf, but it doesn't appear so. So, my question is, if I wanted to, say, add a new servlet zone, do I just make a copy of the tomcat-apache.conf file to another name, then make the changes and update the include directive in the httpd.conf file with the new name ?? If there are no input files to create the tomcat-apache.conf file, is Tomcat spitting out the same file each time it starts ?? If so, why ?? If not, please point me to the proper configuration file to alter to have the changes appear in the newly created tomcat-apache.conf file. On a similar thread, some documents recommend including tomcat.conf in the httpd.conf file, others include tomcat-apache.conf. Is there a preference ?? Also, does any one know where there may be documentation on what all the configuration files in the /conf directory are used for ?? I found explanations on server.xml, web.xml, tomcat.conf and tomcat-apache.conf but nothing on any of the others.

mod_jk vs ApacheModuleJserv.dll on WinNT
I'm a little confused. In the documentation on http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/jakarta-tomcat/src/doc/mod_jk-howto.html It recommends that, if you're including tomcat.conf or tomcat-apache.conf in the Apache httpd.conf file, you should remove these to use the mod_jk module instead of the mod_jserv. Should we be using the mod_jk instead of the ApacheModuleJserv.dll ?? Thanks for your input, Bill Stearns --
Converting from JRun
Can anyone point me to any documentation regarding JRun - tomcat conversions ? Specifically in the area of mapping a URL to a servlet ?? ie, in JRun, one would add a line to rules.properties such as: /url/ Yourservlet What is the equivelent in Tomcat ?? thanks, Bill
