Re: apache mod_rewrite, mod_jk
What do your JkMount directives look like? If you've done something like: JkMount /examples/* ajp13 I would think this would work fine (assuming the rewrite rule is done correctly...I'm no expert), but if you did something like: JkMount /hello ajp13 I can see where there would be problems. You, of course, don't want to mount the url you're trying to rewrite If you're doing something like: JkMount /* ajp13 Then, I think you should back off and only mount the servlets until you get your rewrite rule done correctly. I also don't know the interaction of mod_jk and mod_rewrite if they have competing entries so that may cause you some more trouble if you're pushing the whole site through to Tomcat. Hope that helps.

Jason, The JkMount directives are: JkMount /examples/servlet/* ajp13 JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp13 I believe only these are passed to the servlet engine and not the entire site.

RE: apache mod_rewrite, mod_jk
Yes, but the logs below and the error message you get are showing Tomcat seeing /hello. That shouldn't be happening with what appears to be a good configuration. Something else is going on here. Try switching from a pass-through rewrite to a redirect rewrite and see if that works. If it does, then it probably means the interaction betweem mod_jk and mod_rewrite doesn't work as expected.

RE: apache mod_rewrite, mod_jk
Jason, Thanks a lot. It works when the PT is changed to R (redirect). However, this will break existing paths currently used (jserv). Looks like this is documented in the HOWTO as well.

RE: apache mod_rewrite, mod_jk
One thing I did found out is that in order for the PT to work, I have to use the servlet-mapping tag in web.xml for every alias that needs a redirect. Eg. RewriteRule ^/hello(.*) /examples/servlet/HelloWorldExample$1 [PT] (though I could use /servlet/HelloWorldExample instead) Then add the following to my web.xml: servlet servlet-namehello/servlet-name servlet-classHelloWorldExample/servlet-class /servlet servlet-mapping servlet-namehello/servlet-name url-pattern/hello/url-pattern /servlet-mapping This will work for all my previous Rewriterules (from jserv setup). In short, no change to rewrite rules but add every other alias name (hello) used in the rewrite rule to the web.xml file!
