If you use mod_jk, you should only tamper with server.xml and workers.properties.
Use mod_jk.conf-auto as a template for mod_jk's apache configuration flags.
Example:
Let's suppose you have the following entry in /etc/hosts:
192.168.0.2 MyServer
Let's suppose you have the following entries in apache's httpd.conf:
NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.2
Include /usr/local/opt/apache/conf/mod_jk.conf
Include conf/projects/MyProject
Let's suppose you have the following entries in conf/projects/MyProject:
<VirtualHost MyServer:80>
DocumentRoot /var/www/MyServer
ServerName MyServer
ServerAdmin webmaster@MyServer
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/MyServer-error_log
TransferLog /var/log/httpd/MyServer-access_log
<Directory /var/www/MyServer/>
Options Indexes
</Directory>
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /cgi-bin/* ajp13
</VirtualHost>
Let's suppose you have the following entries in conf/mod_jk.conf:
LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so
JkWorkersFile /usr/local/opt/tomcat/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk
JkLogLevel debug
Let's assume you have a pristine workers.properties.
Let's suppose you have the following in /usr/local/opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml:
(besides commenting unneeded services)
Add (just after the Ajp12 Connector Tag):
<!-- Apache AJP13 support.
-->
<Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector">
<Parameter name="handler"
value="org.apache.tomcat.service.connector.Ajp13ConnectionHandler"/>
<Parameter name="port" value="8009"/>
</Connector>
and on the hosts section (in the end):
<Host name="MyServer" >
<Context path="/"
docBase="/var/servlets/MyServer/"
debug="1"
/>
</Host>
Let's suppose that in /var/servlets/MyServer/ you have a WEB-INF dir with your project.
With this kind of setup, when you reach http://MyServer, you reach the contents in
/var/www/MyServer.
As soon as you enter an url as http://MyServer/cgi-bin/MyServlet or
http://MyServer/something/MyJsp.jsp, this requests will be forwarded to tomcat as
MyServer/cgi-bin/MyServlet and MyServer/something/MyJsp.jsp.
/cgi-bin/MyServlet must be a servlet's url-pattern defined in web.xml (of your
project) for your servlet, and on /var/servlets/MyServer/ must exist
something/MyJsp.jsp
This is an overview of how to configure a host.
I hope it helps. It's probably not foolproof, but I'll let your wits and the help of
other for deeper details of configuration. This is my contribution :)
Hugs and good luck, rms
