Re: mod_jk2 future?
Actually I don't remember. When we decided to use Tomcat instead of Websphere a few months ago, I read quite a lot of documentation/articles (I'm not a developer, but the systems' administrator of our linux servers). I just remember reading the following line because I saved it: ""jk2 is a refactoring of mod_jk and uses the Apache Portable Runtime (apr). If you are using Apache 2.0, you'll might want to use jk2". Also in the tomcat-connector documentation, http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc-archive/jk2/index.html , (now in archive but not at the time of my readings): "JK2 is a refactoring of JK and is much more powerfull." and then "Even if it works with Apache 1.3, JK2 has been developed with Apache 2.0 in mind, " and "JK2 improves the modularity and has a better separation between protocol and physical layer". So at that time the impression was really of JK2 being the successor of JK I will check with the developpers team whether switching from JK2 to JK could be a problem but is there any known issues in switching from one connector to the other (apart for the configuration files) Thank you all for your answers and have a nice day Gaël QM <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 20/12/2004 12.58.30: > On Mon, Dec 20, 2004 at 12:16:51PM +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > : Tomcat), Tomcat-5.0.28, configured with mod_jk2 because I read that md_jk2 > : was the connector to use with apache 2.x.x > > Where did you read this? > I ask because plain mod_jk (aka version 1) works just fine with Apache > 2.x.

RE: mod_jk2 future?
The recommended ways to go are JK or mod_proxy_ajp. Ta Matt -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 December 2004 11:17 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: mod_jk2 future? Hi all, I've a jsp-based application (interface to an oracle db) that will go in production in January. The server is actually configured this way: SuSe 9.0, Apache 2.0.48 (with a virtual host redirecting everything to Tomcat), Tomcat-5.0.28, configured with mod_jk2 because I read that md_jk2 was the connector to use with apache 2.x.x I read (by chance?) somewhere on the jakarta web site that mod_jk2 (aka JK2) is officially unsupported since mid-November. At this point I'm not sure what to do: should I use JK? Should I stay with mod_jk2 and wait for its successor which should be (??) within the core Apache distribution? Any advice would be greatly appreciated Regards, Gaël - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Any opinions expressed in this E-mail may be those of the individual and not necessarily the company.

Well, it is actually not supported for a much longer time :). At this point I'm not sure what to do: should I use JK? Should I stay with mod_jk2 and wait for its successor which should be (??) within the core Apache distribution? Any advice would be greatly appreciated If you already have a configured server that is working and you face no problems, stay with JK2, but be prepared for no support. If not use JK, cause JK2 successor (proxy_ajp) will not be available for Apache2.0, but rater for the upcoming Apache2.1/2.2 Regards, Mladen. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
