Yesterday I installed the mod_jk module into apache and managed to get it configued and doing what I want it to do. The only problem I now have is that whenever I start apache from the command line I get the error message below.
Invalid command 'JkMount', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
To initially get the two (apache and tomcat) talking to each other I followed the instructiosn that can be found here http://www.linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/tomcat-apache.html
Following these instructions I installed the rpm and everything seemed to work fine. I modified the mod_jk.conf file and took a look at the results. Since I had included a "JkMount /* ajp13" directive all requests to apache were getting forwarded to tomcat. What I wanted was only requests coming to a particular address to get forwarded to tomcat. In other words I wanted to use virtual servers with only some sending requests on. I removed the context I had put in the mod_jk.conf file and instead defined a virtual server in apache and included the context in there thus producing virtual server definition below (the hopefully relevent parts of the httpd.conf file).
What is strange about this problem is that I can start apache quite happily using webmin but it won't start if I do "/etc/init.d/httpd start" from a command prompt (I get the error message above). I also get that error message it I try and restart it from webmin. I have searched about a bit and found quite a few suggestions that the location of the LoadModule line makes a large difference. I have moved it all over the httpd.conf file and to no avail.
Anybody got any ideas?
TIA Graham
PS I am using Apache 1.3, Tomcat 4.1.24 and mod_jk 1.2.2 rpm version
