I got it working! It wasn't quite the JkMount lines but it was indeed an
Apache config error. After moving a portion of the autogenerated conf file
to the main Apache conf I found that the VirtualHost portion wasn't working
for whatever reason (I'm no Apache guru). Commenting it out immediately
fixed the problem. The tail end of my Apache conf file now looks like this:
[begin]
#Include /usr/local/tomcat/conf/auto/mod_jk.conf
<IfModule !mod_jk.c>
LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so
</IfModule>
JkWorkersFile "/usr/local/tomcat/conf/jk/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/usr/local/tomcat/logs/mod_jk.log"
JkLogLevel emerg
#<VirtualHost localhost>
#ServerName localhost
#################### localhost:/examples ####################
# Static files
Alias /examples "/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/examples"
<Directory "/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/examples">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.jsp
</Directory>
# Deny direct access to WEB-INF and META-INF

#JkMount /examples ajp13
#JkMount /examples/* ajp13
JkMount /examples/jsp/security/protected/j_security_check ajp13
JkMount /examples/snoop ajp13
JkMount /examples/servlet/* ajp13
JkMount /examples/CompressionTest ajp13
JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /examples/servletToJsp ajp13
JkMount /examples/SendMailServlet ajp13
#</VirtualHost>
[end]
JkMount /examples/* ajp13 -- worked just as well as the more explicit
definitions but with this you lose the advantages of using Apache as far as
I can tell. All content under /examples/ is served by Tomcat be it static
(.html, .jpg) or dynamic (servlets, jsps).
Thanks Milt & John for all the help. John: Maybe you can add something about
this to the troubleshooting section of your excellent page..
