Re: How get www.site.com homepage requests to forward to Tomcat without a redirect?
Removing the [R] from the RewriteRule breaks everything and no page is served: RewriteRule ^/$ /home.htm **does not work** I'm curious: how does everyone else map the domain request to an actual page??? domain.com --to-- domain.com/home.htm Everyone must be doing this, right? What are other solutions for doing this? Pete On Mon, 25 Apr 2005 08:13:19 +0200, Trond G. Ziarkowski wrote: Hi, try removing the [R] from your RewriteRule.

RE: How get www.site.com homepage requests to forward to Tomcat without a redirect?
Thanks, but it still doesn't work! I removed the RewriteRule from httpd.conf and added the welcome-file-list section to the web.xml file. Now, when I go to my vanilla domain (www.smartmicro.com) I get this message: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. Apache/2.0.47 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.47 OpenSSL/0.9.7b DAV/2 mod_jk/1.2.4 Server at www.smartmicro.com Port 80 It's as if Apache isn't even trying to forward the request to Tomcat. What do you guys configure, next, to get www.domain.com requests to be processed by Tomcat?

What do you guys configure, next, to get www.domain.com requests to be processed by Tomcat? So dou you use an Apache / Tomcat combination connected with mod_jk? Then it might be possible that you just need to add the necessary rules to the mod_jk conf. Are the virtual hosts on Tomcat also configured properly?

Hi, try removing the [R] from your RewriteRule. If you read up on the mod_rewrite docs, you should see that the [R] flag is causing the redirect. Trond PAlvin wrote: I'm currently using Tomcat 4.

Tomcat is fine for static content. How much traffic are you really getting to your site? If you're like a majority of sites, not enough that the benefit of Apache is going to really be noticable.

(We get about 1,000 visitors a day to our site.) Just curious: Isn't Tomcat responses inefficient because it has to pass the response back to Apache via a named pipe or TCP or some other connector mechanism?

Just curious: Isn't Tomcat responses inefficient because it has to pass the response back to Apache via a named pipe or TCP or some other connector mechanism? Technically, yes. Realistically, no. Does that hand off and transfer affect the total overall packet time? Of course, but it's all handled within the kernel of the machine, versus going out over the wire, so it's not really noticable. Measureable? Sure. But so is shortening your network cables. Want to easily speed up your network traffic 100%? Cut all of your cables in half. So, seriously, don't worry about it too much. If your site is getting 1000 visitors a day, over 10 hours, that's less than 2 per minute. You can look at your logs and measure your peak times if you like. Trust me, you're not stressing anything here, and Tomcat will have no problems whatsoever handling that traffic. Would it handle the 1000 users if they all showed up at once? Probably not, but you'd be fixing other things before Tomcat then anyway. Tomcat will happily saturate your internet connection. Best of luck.
