Here's an update on where I stand right now on building/running mod_jk for Apache 2.0 beta 16.
I spent a considerable amount of time on the automake route. Cygwin doesn't include libtool by default so I had to download and build that. I then ran into an odd build problem that turned out to be caused by having installed my new libtool stuff into a different directory then where automake was already installed. Once I fixed that I was able to run ./buildconf.sh and ./configure on Win2000/Cygwin. This comes close to working, but still misses some things. I don't know enough yet about the autmake stuff to deal with this right now. Maybe I'll get back to it again later. I then took a deeper look at the mod_jk.dsp file. I discovered that some hand edits a while back broke the file's structure. Once I fixed those up I was able to load the .dsp into Dev Studio. Several of the include and library paths have changed in 2.0 beta 16 so I had to fix those up. I now have an environment that builds mod_jk for apache 1.0 beta 16! I'll commit these changes later today. Now I'm getting some odd behaviour when I use the module. The request seems to be forwarded to Tomcat and the response comes back, but it doesn't appear in the browser. I use telnet to issue the request I get back what looks like a valid response. I'll investigate this later today.
