The only thing I finally had to do was to adapt the settings in the $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/jk.properties file and map the Tomcat paths in /etc/apache2/workers2.properties (paths are SuSE specific; RedHat | Fedora uses a slightly different scheme). Can't tell about Windows or other environments, but it was much easier than I had thought in the end (after having spent considerable time at the 'not-working-another-time-for-mysterious- reasons' stage). I know it's possible to auto-start Tomcat from the Apache service, but for me, that's something like Advanced Voodoo I'm not capable of. Still, I can start both of them separately via init.d scripts (Tomcat first, then Apache, runlevels 3 | 5), IIRC without having to set any System properties first and even without changing the scripts at all.
But well then: as we're OT anyway - does anyone around here (who notably even spends the Easter weekend with technical issues - just like me :-) have a fitting mod_rewrite rule at hand that just does the following: 1. Map .do and .jsp to .html to the outside world, in particular to search engines? What I mean is: calling index.html transparently invokes index.jsp and so on, 2. and possibly even maps parameters to a HTML-friendly structure, so that s/th like /dispatcher.do?firstparam=1&secondparam=2 ends up in something like /dispatcher/1/2/ ? I know it's possible with mod_rewrite, but all this regex stuff seems to be that long gone it just makes me feel dizzy having to remember it these days. -- Chris. > Not sure what you have done, but I had to get an outside startup > script to get things going.
