You're right on all three counts
(a) I forgot a JkMount line and now it works fine
(b) I was a clumsy clown and actually using mod_jk, not mod_jk2
(c) Jk does indedd have far more documentation than mod_jk2
Therefore I am going to stick with the mod_jk, especially since I have got it running.
There just remains one thing that I do not understand -
I'm using Tomcat4.1.18 (just installed today) and if my "<tomcathome>/conf/jk2.properties" file is not being read at all then how does Tomcat know how to communicate with Apache ? Or is Apache the only piece of this puzzle which needs configuring (with mod_jk) since it is the one making the connections?
Thank you and sorry for all the confusion earlier.
Soefara.

JK has way more documentation and support than JK2.
You're missing a JkMount line.
<VirtualHost aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd>
ServerName www.domain1.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/etc/httpd/site1
ErrorLog logs/error_log
TransferLog logs/access_log
JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
</VirtualHost>

Subject: mod_jk virtual hosts ? 90% of the way there.
Hello all,
Mod_jk2 is much easier to install and configure than mod_jk ever was,
largely due to some much more abundant and well-written documentation.
I've set up mod_jk2 and now Apache is passing requests to Tomca OK. I've
also set up Virtual Hosts in Tomcat's server.xml, and now I can access
my server via "http://www.mydomain.com:8080"; instead of the IP address.
Now I'd like to put the two together and have Apache handle
http://www.mydomain.com and pass the requests through to Tomcat4, and now
I'm confused where I go from here. I'm comfortable with Apache's
<VirtualHost> directive in httpd.conf but can't see how it works with mod_jk
since there's only one set of mod_jk directives per httpd.conf
This is what I have so far,
Tomcat_Home/conf/jk2.properties:
--------------------------------
# Define the communication channel [channel.socket:localhost:8009]
info=Ajp13 forwarding over socket tomcatId=localhost:8009
# Map the Tomcat examples webapp to the Web server uri space
[uri:/examples/*] info=Map the whole webapp
Apache's httpd.conf
-------------------
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so
<IfModule mod_jk.c>
AddModule mod_jk.c
JkWorkersFile /usr/local/etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /usr/local/etc/httpd/logs/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel info
JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] "
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T" JkMount /examples/* worker1 </IfModule>
workers.properties (in same directory as httpd.conf)
----------------------------------------------------
# Define 1 real worker using ajp13
worker.list=worker1
# Set properties for worker1 (ajp13)
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
worker.worker1.host=localhost
worker.worker1.port=8009
worker.worker1.lbfactor=50
worker.worker1.cachesize=10
worker.worker1.cache_timeout=600 worker.worker1.socket_keepalive=1
worker.worker1.socket_timeout=3
The above passes requests from Apache to Tomcat OK.
Now for virtual hosts,
<Host name="www.domain1.com" appBase="webapps">
<Alias>domain1.com</Alias>
<Context path="" docBase="ROOT"></Context>
</Host>
<Host name="www.domain2.com" appBase="webapps">
<Alias>mydomain2.com</Alias>
<Context path="" docBase="mainsite"></Context>
</Host>
But what do I add to Apache's httpd.conf for the virtual hosts ?
<VirtualHost aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd>
ServerName www.domain1.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/etc/httpd/site1
ErrorLog logs/error_log
TransferLog logs/access_log
</VirtualHost>
I feel I'm so close. Could somebody please help with this last part ?
Thank you very much,
Soefara.
ps. is 1 worker enough to handle everything ?
