RE: mod_webapp (was: Re: TOMCAT-STANDALONE needed with Apache Server?)
I'm sure the developers would appreciate a patch if you don't think the default server.xml is setup appropriately. It doesn't matter to me one way or the other...I just comment out the connectors I'm not using. John -Original Message- From: Mark R.

TOMCAT-STANDALONE needed with Apache Server?
I'm new to the world of Apache and Jakarta. I notice TOMCAT by default has the TOMCAT-STANDALONE instance defined by default, and the TOMCAT-APACHE instance commented out with no connectors, etc defined. I loaded Apache 2.0 and TOMCAT 4.0 on my Win 2K Svr box. Do I NEED the stand-alone instance of TOMCAT? Do I need all those connectors on the different ports? What is used by the mod_jk interface from Apache to TOMCAT? I tried mod_webapp, but Apache said it could not find it even though I DL'd a win32 version of the .so and accompanying libapr.dll to the MODULES directory. (I went back to the mod_jk method) I have read multiple pages on setting up TOMCAT, and all seem to be different or not appropriate for my needs. Anyone have a good page to help me setup Apache/Tomcat and JSP/SERVLETS/BEANS on a WINDOWS 2000 SERVER?

RE: TOMCAT-STANDALONE needed with Apache Server?
First, you don't need Apache. Tomcat works just fine in stand-alone mode. Don't bother with Apache and connectors unless you absolutely need it, or have aversions to running Tomcat on port 80. Second, stay away from mod_webapp (WARP). AFAIK, it isn't active anymore, and it wasn't finished when the activity stopped anyway. The current stable connector is mod_jk (JK/AJP13). Also available is mod_jk2 (JK2), but that has been designated as beta by the team. Choose the one you want to use. Third, there are several HOWTOs for Windows and other platforms, like this one from Robert Sowders using JK2: ftp://pokey.wr.usgs.gov/pub/rsowders/Apache2_Jk2_TC4.1.x_JSDK1.4.zip Search the archives for others. If you choose to use Tomcat in stand-alone, you don't need any of the other connectors enabled in server.xml. Conversely, if you do decide to go the Apache + connector route, you don't need the stand-alone connector enabled in server.xml. Just comment out the connectors you don't need and restart Tomcat. The default connector for JK is port 8009, I believe.

RE: mod_webapp (was: Re: TOMCAT-STANDALONE needed with Apache Server?)
By default, the WARP connector, and Tomcat-Apache service are commented out. They are included as examples if you want to use them, but the default connector is the Coyote/JK2 connector. My suggestion would be to use JK or JK2 to connect Apache and Tomcat. It is a reasonably well documented process (compared to other connectors) and there are a lot of examples available. The other easy alternative is to change the connector for HTTP/1.1 from port 8080 to port 80, and only use Tomcat. -Original Message- From: Craig R.
