I finally got this working!!!!!!!!!!!! I used the min configuration given in the jk docs of.
jk2.properties: # The default port is 8009 but you can use another one # channelSocket.port=8019 workers2.properties: # Define the communication channel [channel.socket:localhost:8009] info=Ajp13 forwarding over socket tomcatId=localhost:8009 # Map the Tomcat examples webapp to the Web server uri space [uri:/examples/*] info=Map the whole webapp And this works, which means my problem, is in trying to create the Unix channel. I don't know why the Unix channel config did not work, heck I don't even know the difference between a Unix channel and socket channel!

Unavailable I too am running Linux (Fedora 1). Another chap posted after me having similar problems with Windows (IIS). I've confirmed that apache is running as user apache which belongs to the group apache. User tomcat of the group tomcat owns the tomcat directory (and I'm running tomcat as user tomcat). I've added the apache group to the tomcat group (I think) like this #usermod -G apache,tomcat apache I read through some more of the Tomcat 5 docs last night and I'll give it another whack today.

Unavailable I had the same Error 503 on Linux (not Windows) and found that was caused by Apache running as Nobody. Apache couldn't write to the socket because the owner was tomcat and Nobody was not a member of the group tomcat. Check your apache error_log and see what it says. I have never run a Windows server so can't be more helpful.
