RE: Yoav --RE: TC 5 production use
Hi, What are you thoughts on a JBoss 4 setup? Do you still recommend staying away from Apache? I don't have thoughts on JBoss 4 setup. I recommend what I always have: evaluate your needs carefully and don't make design or deployment decisions, such as placing Apache in front of tomcat, because of something you once heard/read somewhere three years ago. There are cases where Apache in front of tomcat is invaluable, and there are just as many cases where it's a hindrance.

Re: Yoav --RE: TC 5 production use
If only tomcat had the mod_rewrite capabilities that apache does, and strong perl and php performance, I would be glad to trash mod_jk (thus getting rid of apache as well). Are there any good rewrite-like capabilities available for URL matching / rewriting that someone could share? I'm sure a filter could be made to do the work that I need... but I also would need to be able to have multiple virtual hosts use the same code base, without having actually separate apps. I have cobrands / private labels of my site with just one tomcat app running. So I have like 50 apache virtual hosts that really just write additional data to the query string using mod_rewrite. It works pretty spiffy, but it isn't elegant. My java application code partially relies on either the hostname (in the case that I didn't use mod_rewrite) or the query string that was passed in from mod_rewrite for a key to what the code should do within just one code base from just one running tomcat app. I guess part of my problem is that I don't have knowledge as to whether tomcat's virtual hosts can be wildcarded to accept multiple *.domainname.com hosts all within one app. Is that possible with tomcat? Is it part of the spec? I wouldn't know where to look to find out. Ideas on how to get rid of the mod_rewrite portion using a tomcat filter or something?

Hi, If only tomcat had the mod_rewrite capabilities that apache does, and strong perl and php performance, I would be glad to trash mod_jk (thus getting rid of apache as well). This is a good example of something that hits on Apache's strong points: perl, mod_php, rewriting. So it's probably good for you to use Apache. But many people on this list come here because they work with servlets and JSPs, and maybe some static content. In many of those cases, Apache is not needed. And in no case should it be added without careful thought and consideration, as it's a significant architecture piece.

RE: Yoav --RE: TC 5 production use
One issue I've had with using an Apache front-end to Tomcat 4 and 5 is having to restart Apache if I need to restart Tomcat. So, if I have Apache 2 w/ mod_jk2 connected to Tomcat 5 and I deploy a new webapp using the Tomcat Manager web interface I have to restart Tomcat after using the Tomcat Administration web interface to configure the data source for the newly deployed web app. Once I restart Tomcat, I can't connect via the Apache front-end until I bounce Apache. Then all is well. Using Apache or IIS as a front end is attractive since I can hide the backend Tomcat container(s) I connect to from the user using the web app. I can control which container gets used through the mod_jk properties file. I was really bummed when I learned I had to bounce the web server after bouncnig Tomcat since the mod_jk (or mod_jk2) connector ceased to properly connect without boucing the web server. Peace...

Since the fire is burning I'll add my load (of what you can decide). Equate it to buying a vehicle. Car SUV Truck Van Motorcycle Tractor-Trailer 2wd 4wd Awd Each has features the other don't. Each can serve multiple purposes. NONE can serve ALL purposes. Look at your needs. Pick the best one. Ten years ago the choices were the same but the capabilities and features were not. Each time you need to look at what is on the market NOW. Then make a decision. If nothing fits your needs then you have two choices compromise or buy two or more that will or build your own. I am a new comer to the world of Tomcat, but I have read of it's past and respect it for what it is. If you have a different opinion, welcome to the human race. And as Yoav asked please start another thread. Not only to keep continuity but also to improve your chances of getting an answer. I don't always read every message if the topic is not something I either know about or am interested in so someone with the knowledge you seek may be skipping this thread and miss the chance to assist you.

Also keep in mind that Apache isn't the *only* thing you can put in front of Tomcat. grin While we do have Apache in the mix (for some legacy apps), we also run Squid [1] in reverse-proxy mode in front of *that* to (a) reduce response time on cachable content and (b) remove some of the load on Tomcat. It did mean we had to be pretty careful about our HTTP cache-control headers, but it's been a nice solution. dwh [1] http://www.squid-cache.org/ Shapira, Yoav wrote: This is a good example of something that hits on Apache's strong points: perl, mod_php, rewriting.
