Hello,
I have spent days trying to get tomcat configured. I can't seem to
get/create either mod_jk or mod_jserv that will work. I am on Linux 6.2,
using Apache 1.3 and Tomcat 3.2.1 . I have tried the following with these
results:
1. First tried using the Apache server that installed automatically when I
installed Linux. Problem is that nowhere on my system could I find apxs -
so I copied it form another Linux installation. I tried to then compile
mod_jserv. Keep getting an error when I run the command
apxs -c -o mod_jserv.so *.c
to create mod_jserv. Get the error :No such file or directory. I don't
know what it is referring to - it is finding apxs okay, what file or
directory is it referring to?
2. Next I tried copying the binary mod_jserv from the tomcat download site
and that didn't work either. When I went to startup apache, I get the
error: "Loade DSO libexec/mod_jserv.so uses plain Apache 1.3 API, this
module might crash upon EAPI. Please recompile it with -DEAPI!" I have no
idea what this means.
3. Next I tired compiling my own Apache version 1.3 and got that all
installed with DSO enabled. Again, tried creating the mod_jserv and mod_jk
files using apxs and again got the error "No such file or directory". Still
don't know what that is referring to.
4. Next tried using the binary mod_jserv that I had downloaded from the
tomcat download site. Didn't work. Apache won't start. I get no errors,
nothing in the log files, nothing in configstatus, NOTHING! (very
frustrating). Just says "not started".
5. Next I tried using the binary mod_jk that I had downloaded from the
tomcat download site. Didn't work. Apache won't start. This time I at
least get an error message. It says "API module structure 'jk_module; in
file /usr/local/apache/libexec/mod_jk.so is garbled - perhpas this is not an
Apche module DSO? Apache could not be started. (I tried re-downloading it
but to no avail!)
So... any ideas? To recap:
1. The downloaded binary mod_jk.so and mod_jserv.so don't seem to work.
2. I can't create new mod_jk.so or mod_jserv.so because apxs reports "No
such file or directory" when I enter the commands as given in the
documentation.
As I said -- I have spent DAYS on this and am completely frustrated. Any
help is surely appreciated.
