Sure, /*.jsp will send JSP files to tomcat. But apache doesn't know that index.jsp is a "home page" unless you tell it so in httpd.conf:
<Directory "/web/test/jsp"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.jsp </Directory> John Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.aas.com -----Original Message----- From: Sean M Alderman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 10:17 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Using JkMount with mod_jk question... Thanks for the clarification John and Milt, I appreciate it. I am kind of curious though about the configuration of index.jsp on the apache side of things.... If I use a JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 directive will any jsp file in the Apache DocumentRoot be handled by Tomcat? Or does this just mean that any jsp file in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps will be handled by tomcat? I'm assuming that JkMount / ajp13 means that / is relative to $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps, but I've found that I actually have to specify the subdirectories under $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps in order to have access to them. I guess my general confusion here is that it seems like the JkMount directive allows one to "overlay" parts/pieces of the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory over top of the Apache DocumentRoot. Kind of analogous to creating a directory structure on a filesystem (e.g. /home) then mounting a new filesystem as /home and being able to see files from both at the same time (of course that's not the way it work). That's what it sounds like JkMount does.
