Apache says no permission to pick Tomcat files on linux

[Krishna Kant T]

I have configured tomcat3.2 to run with apache 1.3.19 on red hat linux
7.

the mod_jserv module has been loaded and an alias points requests like
http://localhost/my/   to tomcat/webapps/root/my where the jsp files are
located. apache reports an error saying "no permission to my"

this config works on win nt.
