I think my problem is very common, but I didn't find a solution.

I have Tomcat 5.5 with a web application. Let's say this application is
deployed in the context 'mywebapp'. I can call the application with the url
http://mydomain.com:8080/mywebapp.
But now i want to call the application via apache directly, e.g. with port
80 so that the url is just http://mydomain.com

Well the first question to ask is whether you really need an Apache front-end here. You can have Tomcat listening directly on port 80 by just changing the corresponding HTTP <Connector port=....> in your server.xml.
And forget Apache and mod_jk in that case.

An Apache httpd+mod_jk front-end is justified if, apart from sending some specific requests to Tomcat webapps, you want to do some other things at the Apache level, that Tomcat cannot do as easily. But if you are sending everything to Tomcat anyway, then I don't see the point.
