I spend a good week trying to solve this and other problems recently. Just add a virtual server (in a "host" tag) to your server.xml file the same as the VirtualHost in apache.
Ditch the /appname unless it is not the only thing on that domain name. If you want it just use an alias /appname /bin/tomcat/webapps/appname Andoni. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chad Cannell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 2:08 PM Subject: RE: Apache Index page jsp and sessionid with JKMount *.jsp Yea, I'm more comfortable at this point just adding the meta redirect. Thanks for all the suggestions though!

I have DirectoryIndex set to index.jsp. My Apache has mod_dir. Calling a directory mapped to Tomcat (such as /myApp) with http://localhost/myApp doesn't return anything, definitely not index.jsp. This is on 4.0.4 and 4.1.12. If your DirectoryIndex does work with index.jsp, I'd be interested in seeing your configuration. About the only way I can think of to approach this problem is to play with the load order for the Apache modules...perhaps loading mod_jk at a different time or loading mod_dir after mod_jk might change the behavior. For me, at this time, it's just easier to stick an index.html file in there with a refresh of 0.
