Adam:
Thanks for the info. We will await the new version of mod_webapp,
but I'm hard pressed to see how it is at fault. If the DefaultServlet
can successfully hand content back to Apache via mod_webapp, why
can't the JSP servlet do so also?? Logically the problem would appear to
be elsewhere.
AFAIK we have followed the instructions in server.xml. Except
for the references to "WebAppMount" (it seems to have been replaced
by "WebAppDeploy" and causes a syntax error), we are doing what
the directions here recommend.
As I said in the earlier letter, our Apache loads up with mod_webapp
with no reported errors, and we are able to serve static HTML content
through Apache and Tomcat (handled by DefaultServlet).
The problem is that whatever content gets pushed out of an executing
JSP is "dropped on the floor" and Apache sends back content to the
browser which is interpreted as "document has no data".
Guess it's back to the source code...
