Usually this is a problem with file permissions.  The Apache user (I think
that this defaults to "apache" on RedHat, but I don't use RedHat that much)
needs to have read+execute permissions on all directories upto and including
the "examples" directory.  In practice, this usually means that they all
need rwxr-xr-x permissions, unless you want to setup group access yourself.

Hi all,

I have installed mod_jk  but cannot get apache to serve html files from
tomcat webapp. The interesting thing, Apache can serve gif files but
when the request is for html files, it returns this:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /examples/index.html on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use
an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.0.43 Server at 192.168.0.1 Port 80

I have verified that Tomcat can serve the html thru the 8080 port. Here
is my http.conf files. I followed what was written in Tomcat website on
how to  configure Apache:

http.conf:

# Load mod_jk module
LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache2/mod_jk.so

Alias /examples "/var/tomcat4/webapps/examples"

<Directory "/var/tomcat4/webapps/examples">
  Allow from all
</Directory>

# Where to find workers.properties
JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd2/conf/workers.properties

# Send servlet for context /examples to worker named worker1
JkMount /examples/servlet/* ajp13

# Send JSPs for context /examples to worker named worker1
JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp13
----end of http.conf extract--------

My environment is:
Apache 2.0.43
Red Hat Linux 7.3
Tomcat  4.1.12
mod_jk-ap20-1.2.0-2jpp.i386.rpm

Can anyone help please.

Regards, eone

Hi Bill,

It worked. What I do not understand is both Apache and Tomcat were installed as root so Apache should have access to Tomcat webapp, or do they. Thanks for the help

Rgds,
Irwan
