If you just want to run the examples, then these should work. However, I get an error about "invalid virtual host name". There are various comments in this email archive about how to work arround this.

The fundamental problem is that the binary version of mod_webapp was not compiled with the options required to run with the Apache installed with RedHat 7.1. I have tried compiling from source, but so far that has not been successful. Basically, you need more that the source provided with mod_webapp and even when I downloaded all of the Apache source and tried to compile, it complained about something broken in the "apx" directory. I hope that those who build mod_webapp will recognize that many of us using Tomcat are basically Java programmers with stock installations of Apache. So we really need a "mod_webapp" that works with these stock distributions. Also, there seem to be problems with the directions with regard to updating httpd.conf. Perhaps these problems are trivial for Apache experts, but again I do not think that servlet progammers necessary fall into this category. So if you do manage to get mod_webapp working with out the "DEAPI" warning, then please post your success story.
