subject:"RE\: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3"

John:

I took your advice from yesterday, replaced mod_webapp.so with mod_jk.so 
and now jsps and servlets don't work.

They worked fine under mod_webapp, including my own HelloWorld app in 
addition to the Tomcat examples. Now they don't work, although I am able 
to get to the HTML pages using, for example, 
http://localhost/examples/servlets.  But the servlets and jsp examples 
themselves all generate an Apache port 80 internal server error.

I followed the instructions on your howto page, (except that the 
configure script fails---I have been able to build apache, tomcat, ant, 
and mod_webapp on my system, but mod_jk fails, so I just grabbed your 
posted binary.)

I added the listener statements to server.xml.

mod_jk.conf shows  Location  entries for each of the webapps, and 
there is a JkMount entry for the servlets (including my HelloWorld entry).

mod_jk.log is empty.

What more do I need to do?

Thanks, Jerry

I have just got my Apache 1.3.27/Tomcat 4.1.12 connection to work.

Answers to your questions are yes, and yes.  You need a connector 
between them, and mod_jk.so is one such connector.

However, I had a devil of a time locating any connector on the 
apache.org website, and I never was able to make mod_jk work (I tried 
using the version that did work with my Tomcat 3.2 installation, but it 
did not work with 4.1 and I was not able to locate mod_jk---any 
version---on the apache website in order to rebuild).

I ended up using mod_webapp.so, which is another connector.

It's located in the jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.12-src.tar.gz, which 
you can download from 
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/src/ 
(the same directory as tomcat itself).

When you unpack it, look for README.txt in the webapp directory. It will 
tell you how to build the connector from CVS.  Follow the directions in 
the readme.  They're clear, straightforward, and the build process was 
smooth and routine, for me at least.

Do you see that mod_jk is being loaded by Apache when you start it or in
Apache's error_log?  I see the following when I start Apache:

Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) mod_jk/1.2.0 configured -- resuming normal
operations

I also will assume that you have the 'Include' statement in the
httpd.conf for mod_jk.properties (as well as the LoadModule/AddModule
directives for mod_jk.so).

You might also want to bump the 'JkLogLevel' in your mod_jk.properties
to get the debug level to get some feedback on what is going on.

Hth,

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

2002-12-13 Thread Denise Mangano

Jerry,

I know you have same version of Apache and Tomcat I do.  By any chance are
you running RedHat Linux 7.2 / 7.3?  I ran into same problem with
encountering error during configure, and just downloaded the binary.  That
is the binary that I downloaded, but when I try to gunzip it tells me the
file is not in gzip format.  Did you have a similar problem?

Re: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

Denise:

I have Red Hat 7.1.  

I didn't have a problem unzipping it; but when I tried to compile, it 
failed the first time, then compiled, but when I run the configure 
script, it fails consistently.

Now that I'm responding to you, I went back to John's how-to page to 
check my facts and I think see where I went wrong...I may have grabbed a 
Solaris file, which would explain why it wouldn't build on Linux.  It's 
the only 4.1.12 tomcat version in his connector matrix, so I took it not 
seeing it was for the wrong system.  

When it failed to install, I went back and got the binary instead.  I 
see he has a 4.1.10 version for Linux; maybe I'll try that.  Or maybe 
not, if I can get the binary to work.  I don't really feel a need to 
build it, just want to get it working.

Re: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

No, wait, that's not true...I did get the right one (or as close as I 
could come, the connector cell in the matrix says Tomcate 4.0x).  I got 
confused because I'm not at the Linux box right now, I checked his 
website from my Win2000 machine and the Solaris link was the one that 
showed the last visit.  I must have clicked it from this computer, even 
though I didn't download it---not only for Solaris, but also wrong Apache.

John:

I took your advice from yesterday, replaced mod_webapp.so with 
mod_jk.so and now jsps and servlets don't work.

They worked fine under mod_webapp, including my own HelloWorld app in 
addition to the Tomcat examples. Now they don't work, although I am 
able to get to the HTML pages using, for example, 
http://localhost/examples/servlets.  But the servlets and jsp 
examples themselves all generate an Apache port 80 internal server 
error.

I followed the instructions on your howto page, (except that the 
configure script fails---I have been able to build apache, tomcat, 
ant, and mod_webapp on my system, but mod_jk fails, so I just grabbed 
your posted binary.)

I added the listener statements to server.xml.

mod_jk.conf shows  Location  entries for each of the webapps, and 
there is a JkMount entry for the servlets (including my HelloWorld 
entry).

mod_jk.log is empty.

What more do I need to do?

Thanks, Jerry

It's located in the jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.12-src.tar.gz, which
you can download from 
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/src/

2002-12-13 Thread response

Hello.

I wish the Tomcat/Apache team would come up with precompiled binaries 
for Linux and, if possible, rpms. The problem of compiling the source 
for binaries is too much work for the average user.

Thank-you for your time.

Sean.

Now that I'm responding to you, I went back to John's how-to page to 
check my facts and I think see where I went wrong...I may have grabbed 
a Solaris file, which would explain why it wouldn't build on Linux.  
It's the only 4.1.12 tomcat version in his connector matrix, so I took 
it not seeing it was for the wrong system. 
When it failed to install, I went back and got the binary instead.  I 
see he has a 4.1.10 version for Linux; maybe I'll try that.  Or maybe 
not, if I can get the binary to work.  I don't really feel a need to 
build it, just want to get it working.

Re: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

BTW, the configuration lines that go in httpd.conf for webapp are
entirely different than what is required for mod_jk. They serve the
same function, but they are entirely different connectors. It will take
some reading to make the transition.

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3


Hi -

You should find everything you need right here:

http://www.johnturner.com/howto/apache-tomcat-howto.html

You can get recent official mod_jk binaries from the Jakarta site here:

http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/release/v1.2.1
/bin/linux/i386/

Older versions are on my site.  In my HOWTO, if you are using a pre-compiled
version of mod_jk, you can skip all of the stuff that talks about building
mod_jk from source.

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3


Not that critical, especially at the OS level.

Building the connector from source is fairly easy.  Assuming a GNU build
environment (check my Solaris HOWTO for details, linked off the same URL),
building mod_jk is:

Localhost #: ./configure --with-apxs=/some/path/to/apache/bin/apxs
--with-java=${JAVA_HOME}

Localhost #: make
Localhost #: make install

There should be a mod_jk.so file on your system at that point.  Then you are
good to go.  My RH and Solaris HOWTOs all detail how to build the connector.

my setup on each detail---I'm running Apache 1.3.27 and Tomcat 4.1.12 on 
Red Hat Linux 7.1; your matrix shows Apache 1.3.26, Tomcat 4.1.10, 
RHLinux 7.2.  

How critical are version numbers?

Answers to your questions are yes, and yes.  You need a connector

However, I had a devil of a time locating any connector on the 
apache.org website, and I never was able to make mod_jk work (I tried 
using the version that did work with my Tomcat 3.2 installation, but it 
did not work with 4.1 and I was not able to locate mod_jk---any

I ended up using mod_webapp.so, which is another connector.

It's located in the jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.12-src.tar.gz, which 
you can download from 
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/src/

When you unpack it, look for README.txt in the webapp directory. It will

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

2002-12-11 Thread Denise Mangano

Thank you so much for getting back to me about that.  I have just been
trying to read up on the mod_jk, and was hoping there was another option.  

I do have one more question though related to running JSP with Tomcat.  If I
make my entire form JSP, and run from within Tomcat, and after it
communicates with the payment server, an updated JSP page will be displayed
(depending on the data received from the bank).   Would I still have to make
the connection between Apache and Tomcat?  It would basically be a link from
my website to the form, which will be JSP.  I put up a dummy page and had a
link to one of the example JSP that came with Tomcat.  The link worked Ok,
and the servlet ran fine.

Thanks again!

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3

2002-12-11 Thread Denise Mangano

Just an after thought here... Even though I can access the JSP from my web
site in Apache, I just tried to access it through the https:// protocol.  It
just hung and did not load. Do I have to configure something in Tomcat to
allow for SSL connection to the JSP's?  I am looking at Jakarta's site and
it is saying that when using Tomcat as a standalone server, SSL has to be
configured.  But when running Tomcat primarily as a Servlet/JSP container
behind another web server, such as Apache the SSL is configured on the web
server, which it is (I already have a certificate).  What am I missing?  The
only time I will need to access Tomcat from my web site is over a secure
connection.

Sorry for the trivial questions, as I said I'm new to this.  Thanks in
advance,

Yes, to use JSP's, you need to set up Tomcat the same way you would if
you are using servlets (basically).  Servlets and JSP's are different
entities, covered by different specs.  But they are related, and
typically a servlet container (such as Tomcat) will implement both of
them.  In fact, the way Tomcat (and most servlet containers, AFAIK)
process JSP's, they *are* servlets -- that is, one of the first things
that is done to them is that they are translated to a servlet.

Also, in general, it is not recommended to put a lot of code in a JSP,
and often systems are designed that use both servlets and JSP's.

The only time you wouldn't need to connect Apache and Tomcat is if you
are using Tomcat standalone, and that's an independent factor from
whether you're using servlets or JSP's.

That's basically correct.  The thing is, you have to place the
appropriate Tomcat connector-related directives in the appropriate
section(s) of your Apache httpd.conf file to make sure Apache knows
what to pass to Tomcat.  For example, if you have SSL set up, and you
have a section of your httpd.conf that deals with your https/SSL
instance (perhaps as a virtual host), you have to put the appropriate
connector-related directives in that section.  If you put them in the
root (i.e. http) section, they'll only apply to the root instance.

I don't know exactly what your setup is, like what connector, so I
can't be more specific.  If you're using mod_jk, for example, you'd
have to place appropriate JkMount directives in the https/SSL instance
section of your httpd.conf.

  you can download from
  http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.1.12/sr
  c/
  (the same directory as tomcat itself).
 
  When you unpack it, look for README.txt in the webapp directory. It
  will tell you how to build the connector from CVS.  Follow the
  directions in the readme.  They're clear, straightforward, and the
  build process was smooth and routine, for me at least. Jerry

  Hi all,
 
  I am fairly new to using Apache / Tomcat. I currently have my website
  set up in Apache, running in the /var/html directory. I have
  installed Tomcat because I have a form page (HTML) that I want to run
  a servlet with to process a credit card payment with an outside
  payment processor. I have seen
  some instances that people have stated I have to do some special
  configuration in order to use both Apache and Tomcat together. Is
  this so?
  If so, then are there any good resources for this?
 
  Perhaps using JSP for the form will be better because I want a custom
  page to display depending on what error message will come back from
  the payment
  engine.  If that is the case then wouldn't I need the connection between
  Apache
