I'm curious: What is the workflow sequence when one has Apache and Tomcat running together?
Assuming an environment of: Apache 2.0 (@ port 80) Tomcat 4.1 (@ port 8080) mod_jk 1.2 (ajp 1.3) Win2K Pro I understand that that Apache is listening at a particular location, (let's assume for the purposes of this discussion that it's at port 80,) but after it recieves the HTTP request, where does it send it? Which lines in the config of Apache and jk moderate which requests get intercepted and where they go? Once it gets sent off, who recieves the request at that point? Tomcat? JK? If it's Tomcat, where does Tomcat recieve it, before or after _IT_ does it's <servlet-mapping> directives? I'm trying to _understand_ the workflow, since most other cases just involve someone giving just a specific example that doesn't necessarily cover all arbitrary cases. What I'd really LOVE to see is some sort of logical decision diagram, such as: ---------- ---------- -------- -------- |Apache | |JK | |Tomcat| |Apache| |Decision| ---> |Decision| ---> |Output| ---> |Output| ---------- ---------- -------- -------- Complete with diamond if-then-else decisions and references to what config settings moderate each decision. This is a bit much to ask, but I think if it _could_ be done, it'd be super-useful, not just to me but to everyone using Apache, Tomcat, and mod-jk.
