Hi, I would like to hear opinions from users or developers who have a little more experience with mod-jk/Tomcat then me.
With multiple virtual hosts, I would like to add and delete virtual hosts on a routine basis. This is achieved by re-starting both httpd and tomcat after re-configuration (I don't know any other way). Surprisingly, Apache immediately returns a server error 500 response while Tomcat is re-starting. IMHO this renders almost useless the init() and destroy() servlet logic that is used to make user sessions persistent before and after a server restart. If, for example, the expected servlet response is JavaScript that is embedded in a web page, then the whole web application gets broken without even showing an error by this. This is so because there is no way that I can catch this error in JavaScript. The error 500 response is HTML and and the script engine cannot read it. This is just a special case but I think an error 500 response for a server re-start could be considered a disaster in most other cases as well. What can be done about this? I have filed a bug: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34050 Do you agree with my view? How long would a thing like this take to fix?
