   Note: The above steps assume that you downloaded the Apache source and
   placed it in your /usr/local/src directory.

  +Q. Why doesn't my form authentication work? I'm getting similar error messages
  +from Apache:</h3>
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>Not Found
  +The requested URL /login/j_security_check was not found on this server.
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
  +
  +A. If you used manual configuration such as:
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>
  +JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
  +
  +or
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>
  +JkMount /*.vm ajp13
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
  +
  +mod_jk will pass requests for all JSP or Velocity pages to Tomcat. If some of
  +those pages are configured as login and error pages in web.xml:
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>
  +&lt;login-config&gt;
  +  &lt;auth-method&gt;FORM&lt;/auth-method&gt;
  +  &lt;realm-name&gt;Protected&lt;/realm-name&gt;
  +  &lt;form-login-config&gt;
  +    &lt;form-login-page&gt;/login/login.vm&lt;/form-login-page&gt;
  +    &lt;form-error-page&gt;/login/error.vm&lt;/form-error-page&gt;
  +  &lt;/form-login-config&gt;
  +&lt;/login-config&gt;
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
  +
  +there is also another, somewhat hidden request involved in the authentication
  +process: <strong>/login/j_security_check</strong>, which is the 'action' of the
  +form specified within <strong>login.vm</strong> and <strong>error.vm</strong>
  +like this:
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>
  +&lt;form method=&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;j_security_check&quot;&gt;
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
  +
  +This request is not mapped. This following fixes the problem:
  +
  +<table class="inlinetable"><tr><td class="inlinetd">
  +<blockquote><pre>
  +JkMount /*.vm ajp13
  +JkMount /login/j_security_check ajp13
  +</pre></blockquote>
  +</td></tr></table>
