Could you post more of your httpd.conf file? The error message is pretty
self-explanatory line 638 is probably the /second/ place
JkWorkersFile is mentioned in httpd.conf, so you should look for other
places.

 Here is the part of the httpd.conf where the loader failed:
 Line 636   #  TABLE: (4)
 Line 637   IfModule mod_jk.c
 Line 638   JkWorkersFile sys:/adminsrv/conf/mod_jk/workers.properties

 Line 640   JkLogLevel error
 Line 641   /IfModule
 
 NetWare loads httpd in the Admin and then in the OS memory spaces.  The
 problem is observed on the second load.

Hmm I'm not familiar enough with netware to know what you mean when
you say that you load it in the Admin and OS memory spaces. Why are you
running httpd more than once?

 Do you think that it is something that Tomcat people can take care of or
 is something where Novell should make their special binary?

While mod_jk is pretty much a product to support Tomcat (or other Java
web application servers), the code itself is separate from Tomcat and
maintained by different people. Two of the mod_jk developers lurk on
this list and may be able to help, but I suspect your problem is
configuration-related and not a problem with mod_jk itself.

Re: Installing mod_jk 1.2.27 on NetWare 6.5 SP8

2009-04-21 Thread Vladimir Mikhelson
Christopher,

I have received an off-line reply from Rainer Jung who suggested to
discuss the issue with Gunter Knauf, the person responsible for NetWare
binaries compilation.

According to Rainer, The check for multiple JkWorkersFile directives in
the config has been added in revision 580793, so between 1.2.25 and 1.2.26.

It seems to me the mod_jk developers overlooked the NetWare specifics
where the same process can run independently in different memory
spaces.  JkWorkersFile is instantiated once per httpd instance. There
are potentially multiple instances of the same process allowed in
NetWare. Apparently that causes some problem with new version of mod_jk.
FYI, version 1.2.23 runs fine on the same .conf files.

Thank you,
Vladimir

Installing mod_jk 1.2.27 on NetWare 6.5 SP8

2009-04-17 Thread Vladimir Mikhelson
Hi,

I have tried to install mod_jk 1.2.27 on Netware 6.5 per CVE-2008-5519:
Apache Tomcat mod_jk information disclosure vulnerability.

I downloaded the binary mod_jk-1.2.27-httpd-2.0.63-nw.zip
http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/netware/jk-1.2.27/mod_jk-1.2.27-httpd-2.0.63-nw.zip
from
http://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/netware/jk-1.2.27/
and tried to use it.

Unfortunately I was getting the following in the httpd message screen:

Syntax error on line 638 of SYS:/apache2/conf/httpd.conf:
JkWorkersFile only allowed once

Here is the part of the httpd.conf where the loader failed:
Line 636   #  TABLE: (4)
Line 637   IfModule mod_jk.c
Line 638   JkWorkersFile sys:/adminsrv/conf/mod_jk/workers.properties
Line 639   JkLogFile logs/mod_jk.log
Line 640   JkLogLevel error
Line 641   /IfModule

NetWare loads httpd in the Admin and then in the OS memory spaces.  The
problem is observed on the second load.

Do you think that it is something that Tomcat people can take care of or
is something where Novell should make their special binary?

Thank you,
Vladimir
