Hello,
I just went the easy way to install Tomcat4 on linux via binary RPMs
(tomcat4-4.0-1, tomcat4-webapps-4.0-1) and configured my Apache/1.3.20
something like this:
<VirtualHost 10.1.1.1>
DocumentRoot /var/www/virtual/testhost
ServerName www.testhost.dom
<IfModule mod_webapp.c>
WebAppDeploy examples warpConnection /examples/
</IfModule>
</VirtualHost>
The Apache Webserver has some handlers configured:
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
AddHandler send-as-is asis
Now if I request any URL ending with ".shtml", the Apache server
handles the request itself (what may be perfectly legal), but it
ignores the DocumentRoot!
So a request for "http://www.testhost.dom/var/www/html/index.shtml";
tries to serve the file "/var/www/html/index.shtml" which is not
contained in the DocumentRoot of that virtual host. The server seems
to take "/" as the new DocumentRoot. This behaviour occurs whether
the Tomcat engine itself is running or not.
Is this a problem of the Apache Webserver, a flaw of mod_webapp or did
I just do something completely wrong in my configuration?
regards,
Markus "Lupo" Volk
