Hold on!!!  Slow down.  You are jumping all over the place.  Take things one
at a time and you will get this working.

First:  do the tomcat examples work?  Do you get successful results at this
URL: http://localhost:8080/examples ?

Second: does Apache work?  Do you get a successful page when you go to
http://localhost ?

The best way for us to help you is for you to explaine 1) what is currently
working, 2) what is currently not working, and 3) what you have done to try
and resolve any errors or issues.

- you definitely should have a Host entry in server.xml with a name of
"localhost"

- the Listener entry you listed is for causing tomcat to generate the part
of apache's httpd.conf that will send servlet and JSP requests to tomcat.
You can either configure everything manually, or you can configure
server.xml, and when tomcat starts, it will create a file with apache
configuration directives in it.  If you do it that way, all you have to do
is include the file that tomcat creates in your apache config file with an
Include directive.  You also have to remember to start tomcat first, since
the config file it generates for apache is generated every time.  If you
configure everything manually, you do not need this.

- the closing tag for directives in server.xml is "/>".  This is shorthand.
If you open a tag with "<Listener"  you close it with "/>", not
"</Listener>".

- "best solution" is relative.  Only you can decide this, we can't decide it
for you.  Every situation is different.

The HOWTO at www.cnr.berkeley.edu sets up a working server configuration.
All due respect to you, but that would be the "best solution" as a starting
point, after which you could change things to suit your situation as needed.

Before posting the message I read the http://www.acg-gmbh.de/mod_jk/ 
but I thought that the mod_jk.dll was not good in relation to the notes.
It was an error from me.
But It doesn't work. I can start Apache an Tomcat but I can not
run my web applications. When I start Tomcat no web application
is deployed.

I have a question why the AddModule expression is not added
to the httpdconf ? is this expression present in the  mod_jk.conf-auto ?

The link http://www.cnr.berkeley.edu/~salazar/apache_tomcat.html is very
interesting, but the notion of <Host name="localhost" debug="0"
appbase="webapps"> 
is noted and I don't have any such element in the server.xml file.
I think that that the <Listener
className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.config.ApacheConfig" append="true" /> is
optional, isn't it ? If the web applications are automatically
deployed we don't have context elements in the server.xml.
What is the best solution ?
I added only the <Listener
className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.config.ApacheConfig">
element but I don't know if I must add a closed tag </Listener> and where ?
With this line I can not start Tomcat and the log gives no help.

Can somebody send me a server.xml file that allow to enable apache auto
configuration ?
Thanks a lot.

My advice is to use mod_jk.  Mod_jk2 is still new, and there are some issues
with mod_webapp that prevent it from being ready for production in my
opinion.

These may help:
http://www.acg-gmbh.de/mod_jk/ (you need the mod_jk.dll file from here)
http://www.cnr.berkeley.edu/~salazar/apache_tomcat.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/ajp.html

        Hi,

        I am working on a web application.
        I used the default Tomcat4.0.4 configuration until now.
        (standalone mode execution).
        I would like to use Apache and Tomcat together but I don't      
        understand what I must do.
        The configuration is very hard, there are a lot of elements
        httpd.conf, server.xml, mod_jk.dll or mod_jk2.dll or
mod_webapp.dll...
        I don't know what module I must use ?
        
        My environment is the following:
        - Windows 2000
        - Tomcat4.0.4 (I believe that the new version 4.1 is better with JSP
but it implies
        new configuration yet)
        - Apache2.0.39 (it's the last stable version, I believe)

        I don't know the new features of mod_jk2 vs mod_jk vs mod_webapp.
        Do I have to create a <context> element for each web application
with mod_jk
        or can each application deploy automatically ?

        If I want to use mod_jk2, how can I get the mod_jk.dll associated to
Tomcat4.0.4
        and Apache2.0.39 ?

        I read that it is possible to enable Apache -Tomcat automatically
with include
        the file mod_jk.conf-auto in the httpd.conf.
        How is the mod_jk.conf-auto file generated ?
        
        Thanks a lot in advance.
