Yes, as the others said, Tomcat does not read or use a
workers.properties. It is only used by mod_jk and you can put it
wherever you like, as long as your JkWorkersFile directive contains the
correct path.

Sometimes the confusion comes from the fact, that tomcat can be
configured to *write* a jk config (auto configuration), but this is
partially broken. Also, since mod_jk is not part of the httpd project,
instead part of the Tomcat project, the files get put into
CATALINA_HOME/conf by some distributors.

mod_jk should be fine with prefork MPM (single thread) and with worker
MPM (multi-threaded). Unless you need to go into extreme situations,
modern hardware and OSes can handle quite high load with both of them.

Regards,

Rainer

You only need one workers.properties file: it configures mod_jk for
connections to the various Tomcat instances you want to use.

 Another potential issue is that we are using apache prefork. From what I
 have googled so far it looks like apache mpm would be better for us. We
 typically have one apache box sitting in front of 12 tomcats.

Prefork works just fine with mod_jk. IIRC, mpm does /not/ work well with
mod_jk (or maybe you just have to be careful?).

 Cool, it is starting to make a bit more sense.
 
 Does that mean that setting settings in
 apache:/etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties will
 override any
 workers.properties set in tomcat servers?

 One less thing to worry about then for now. Only
 reason I thought it
 might be an issue was because some web pages suggest
 mpm scales better,
 and works better on multi cpu systems.

Tomcat never deals with workers.properties at all. Only mod_jk (within
Apache httpd) reads this file.
