[users@httpd] Apache2 and Tomcat : Simultaneously running both servers and Virtual Hosting.

[Kernel freak]

Hello friends,

I am working on some server side changes in which I have the webapps or
website hosted by Apache server is called by the URL. So if url is
www.domain-one.com, then the specific webapp or website must be served.

I have partial success in these regards as I have already configured Apache
Tomcat to host multiple webapps, and call them based on URL. It is working.

Now on to the 2nd stage of problem, where I have hosted a CMS on Apache
server, and would like to call it with a URL, *but also keep Apache tomcat
running in parallel*, and this is the main problem I am dealing with.

This may seem like a Apache server issue, but it's both, as I want to run
Apache web-server and Apache tomcat simultaneously with Virtual hosting. I
just hope there might be people here who know both servers.

I tried mod_jk without any luck. Here are the changes I made to tomcat and
apache server.

Tomcat changes : server.xml :

<Connector port="80"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"
compression="force" compressionMinSize="1024"
               connectionTimeout="20000"  maxPostSize="5242880"
               URIEncoding="utf-8"
 compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/
javascript,application/x-javascript,application/javascript"/>


<Connector port="443"
protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol"

              compressionMinSize="1024" scheme="https" secure="true"

               keystoreFile="keystorefile" keystorePass="PASSWORD"

 <Host name="localhost"  appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"/>
        <Host name="domain-first.com" autoDeploy="true"
unpackWARs="true" appBase="tooltank_webapps">
                <Alias>www.domain-first.com</Alias>
                <Context path=""/>
        </Host>

        <Host name="domain-second.com" autoDeploy="true"
unpackWARs="true" appBase="aupair_webapps">
                <Alias>www.domain-second.com</Alias>
                <Context path=""/>


    </Host>
    <Connector port="8010" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="443"
URIEncoding="utf-8"
 compressableMimeType="text/html,text/xml,text/plain,text/css,text/
javascript,application/x-javascript,application/javascript"
/>



Installed mod_jk with following command :


      apt-get install libapache2-mod-jk

Created file workers.properties in /etc/apache2/


# Define 1 real worker using ajp13
 worker.list=worker
 # Set properties for worker (ajp13)
 worker.worker.type=ajp13
 worker.worker.host=localhost
 worker.worker.port=8010

Instructed jk.conf to load this file :


JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/workers.properties


Finally edited 000-default in sites-enabled to add :


    JkMount /home/user/tomcat_directory/* worker1

Then restarted Apache2, and I got this error :


[....] Restarting web server: apache2(98)Address already in use:
make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
Action 'start' failed.

 failed!


I understand that Tomcat is running on 80, but how do I then configure
the servers so they can run simultaneously.

Kindly let me know..
