FRUSTRATED: Is my_mod_jk.conf Only Way
HELP! I'm getting real frustrated. Based on what I've been reading on the list and the archives, I've tried modifying: tomcat-apache.conf server.xml uriworkermap.properties mod_jk.conf workers.properties to get Tomcat (3.2.2) and Apache (1.3.20) working on Win98SE, WinNT, and Solaris 2.7 machines nothing I change other than replacing mod_jk.conf-auto seems to change anything. Can someone explain what files impact the Apache/Tomcat configuration or what they do? Here's the list of files in the conf directory: build.xml iis_redirect.reg-auto jni_server.xml jni_workers.properties manifest.servlet mod_jk.conf mod_jk.conf-auto obj.conf obj.conf-auto server.xml test-tomcat.xml tomcat-apache.conf tomcat-users.xml tomcat.conf tomcat.policy tomcat.properties uriworkermap.properties uriworkermap.properties-auto web.dtd web.xml workers.properties wrapper.properties I'm assuming I can ignore all the IIS files, but I'm beginning to even doubt that. If someone could just tell me which files are involved, and in what hierarchy or sequence they are used I could proceed on my own. It seems like nothing I change, like trying to use ajp13 instead of ajp12 works. Which of the above files impact my configuration and which can I ignore? Any documentation project should outline what the files are for and what they do. The cause of my frustration is that we (I) convinced our customer that we didn't need or want to use Oracle 9iAS Application Server, after 6 months of using it, and to use Apache/Tomcat instead. Since they were convinced, I've run into nothing but frustrations trying to get Tomcat/Apache to work together. I've posted three previous messages to the list, including the one below, and received no response. HELP!!! -joe- Joseph A.

The only way I've found to do this is to copy mod_jk. conf-auto to another file, I called it my_mod_jk.conf and change the JkMount lines. For example, I changed: JkMount /admin/servlet/* ajp12 JkMount /admin/*.jsp ajp12 to: JkMount /admin/* ajp13 It works fine, except everything in the admin directory, even the html is served by Tomcat I believe. Is there a better way? What's the purpose of Apache in this case, unless I use unique subdirectories for static html files? Or is Apache picking up the html files? How can I tell which one serves the html files with the /admin/* mapping? Also, although I configured Tomcat's server.xml to recognize Ajpv13, I noticed it was still using Ajpv12. Why? Any help would be much appreciated. THANKS -joe-
Re: FRUSTRATED: Is my_mod_jk.conf Only Way
- server.xml configures Tomcat. - mod_jk.conf-auto is created by Tomcat based on your server.xml configuration and can be included in Apache's httpd.conf. or - My preferred way is to put all of the mod_jk directives in httpd.conf myself and maintain them manually...no surprises, but others have luck with the automated method. - workers.properties is used by mod_jk to figure out how to connect to Tomcat (IP address, port number, load balancing, etc.). If everything's on the same machine, the default file is fine. You can use ajp12 or ajp13 workers by those names from the default settings. - uriworkermap.properties is IIS/ISAPI only...I think. No need to worry about it. The only other file I've had to mess with is tomcat-users.xml to set up authentication through Tomcat on one site where a webapp relied on it. Otherwise, I just stick to Apache's security. Hope that helps. Best Regards, Jason Koeninger JJ Computer Consulting http://www.jjcc.com On Mon, 02 Jul 2001 19:26:59 -0600, Joseph A.
