You basically need to choose between mod_jk and mod_webapp as your
Apache-to-Tomcat connector.  If you look in the mailing list archives for
yesterday (June 11, 2002) you will see a brief How-To that I posted for
installing and setting up mod_webapp (though that was with Apache 2).

This URL might help with Apache 1.3, though it only addresses pre-version 4
Tomcat:
http://www.galatea.com/flashguides/apache-tomcat-unix.xml

There seems to be some issues with restricting mod_webapp to JSP and
servlets only...apparently mod_webapp sends all HTTP requests to Tomcat,
even images and HTML documents, which is bad.  From what I have read so far,
restricting mod_jk to serving only JSP and servlets is something that has
been done and is working.

There's a fairly severe lack of documentation on how to get Apache and
Tomcat working together...if you get yours working successfully, it would be
great if you could post a brief How-To document.

Subject: Newbie Question: Apache+Tomcat configuration


Hi,

I am absolutely newbie on Tomcat.
I have a Linux RH 7.1 box and a Apache 1.3.19 running on it. 
I just installed Tomcat 4.0.3. Seems like it has been successfully 
installed because if test it on 8080 port all the java examples 
running perfect. Now, what have to be done for the rest? I guess 
I need to configure both Tomcat and Apache to have them work 
together. However I don't know where to start from. What I want 
are, the apache should be the primary web server, and only java 
JSP and serverlet will be thrown to Tomcat; and, both servers 
recognize same document directories for those virtual hosts.
If any one out there can give me a brief explaination abou this
or just recomend a article, please give me a hand. Thanks in
advance!

Alex
