I have been struggling with this too. It really deserves some documentation:
- get the source of mod_webapp.so and compile it.
this is how I configured it
server.xml:
====================================================
<Service name="Tomcat-Apache">
<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.warp.WarpConnector"
port="8008" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true"
acceptCount="10" debug="0"/>
<Engine className="org.apache.catalina.connector.warp.WarpEngine"
name="Apache" debug="0">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="apache." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/>
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.MemoryRealm" />
.....
<Host name="dell" debug="0" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
directory="logs" prefix="localhost_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
<Context path="" docBase="/home/eastbeem/www" debug="0"
reloadable="true"/>
</Host>
</Engine>
</Service>
httpd.conf:
==============================================
LoadModule webapp_module /usr/lib/apache/mod_webapp.so
AddModule mod_webapp.c
NameVirtualHost 192.168.123.33
<VirtualHost 192.168.123.33>
ServerName dell
DocumentRoot /home/eastbeem/www
WebAppConnection warpConnection warp localhost:8008
WebAppDeploy /home/eastbeem/www warpConnection /
<Location /WEB-INF/ >
AllowOverride None
deny from all
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
hope this helps,
