Hi,
I have failed to come up with a solution to link Apache 2.2 and Tomcat
6 using mod_jk / mod_proxy_ajp in a way that satisfies my requirements.
(Seamless form based authentication, CMS using wordpress etc.) I can
get 98% there but the last 2% is the blocker and I am running out of
options.

It is extremely simple with mod_jk.

Yep, I had come accross mod_auth_cookie, but its current status is
questionable and people seem to have moved on to other things. I am just
trying to find out what those other things are! Best practises etc. It
would be nice to conduct a poll to find out what people are actually

I am researching porting my site to Apache 2.2 and Tomcat, and hope to
gain the following.
1. Serve the static content from apache e.g. images, clips sound, text
files etc.
I do that will all of my JSP apps. I set up Apache on the
front end and use mod_jk to push JSP/servlet stuff
Hi Neil,
Thanks for the comments, I really appreciate hearing from someone
that has actual production experience using these technologies!
To answer your question below, I *could* have all my servlets in one
webapp but that would not be my preference. For example I would like the

You can also look at squid to serve static files and load balance. So
squid fronts tomcat and your other apps. Squid can serve your static
files as well. All you have to do it make sure your static files
return a cache header like max-age, and squid will serve them without
going to the origin
Thanks. Squid may be a contender but I need the CMS and blogging that
comes with apache/php. Although maybe someday our traffic may get to the
point where we will need squid to keep up! Now that would be a good
problem to have! Thanks for the pointer.

Thank you very much for your informative comments.
In terms of breaking an application into single servlets, I agree that
there would need to be strong reasons for doing it, and the clear one
that springs to mind is the requirement to have different authn methods
for each, None, Form, and http

using Tomcat. This is good, how do you handle ssl? Does
Apache terminate any SSL, all ssl or only static pages?
Apache terminates the SSL connection and I use JkMount to
push JSP/Servlet stuff into Tomcat.
