Configure Apache to work with Tomcat - mod_jk.conf-auto?

[Lian, Xiaobu (Alice) (Xiaobu (Alice))]

Hi, My problem with building mod_jk.so on hp-ux has been solved with the big help from Mike Braden. Many thanks to Mike again! Now I have a general question: How do I configure apache to work with tomcat? I have this question because after I included mod_jk.conf-auto in httpd.conf, and I started tomcat and apache without problem. However, when I try to access one servlet class, I saw the differences: When access from tomcat directly, http://myserver:8090/servlets/my_test, the servlet class works. But if I use apache url: http://myserver/servlets/mytest, a "save as" window was started. I guess that probably I did not configure correctly for apache to communicate with tomcat. I have read the mod_jk howto and tomcat-apache howto. I use tomcat 2.3.1 with apache 1.3.19. I was confused by whether I should include mod_jk.conf-auto (if yes, how can I make any changes?) in the httpd.conf, or I should use LoadModule and AddModule in httpd.conf. I assume I cannot do both at the same time, can I? But I do not know what are the advantages one over the other? Can anybody help me with a basic guide to configure apache to talk to tomcat in httpd.conf and any other files? Thanks for any information!
