Hi,

My server setup was working perfectly with Apache 2.0.55 and mod_jk.

I upgraded to Apache 2.2 Then the mod_jk no longer worked. I read it is now necessary to use mod_proxy_ajp instead.

However, trawl as I may, I can find no support for the configuration of this setup. I have cobbled together the best I can, but I cannot get Tomcat to serve any pages at all.

Any friends out their that would care to share the necessary snippets of the apache and tomcat configuration files to set up Tomcat under Apache

Much appreciated !

SMc

Indeed in the Apache docu no clue to configure it.

Did you try ?

ProxyPass / ajp://mydomain.com/

Yep, miserable failure I'm afraid. There must be something I am missing.

I have spent too much time on it already !

I have switched strategy back to serving direct from Tomcat. I believe I can set up virtual hosts under Tomcat.

I have got so much to do that I cant afford to battle it out. I will wait until the support for Apache 2.2 catches up with the release...

If it is this tricky to find out the basics, god knows what would happen if I was live and something blew up....!

Why not use:

ProxyPass /xxx http://127.0.0.1:81/xxx
ProxyPassReverse /xxx http://127.0.0.1:81/xxx

(tomcat running on port 81 in this example)

...well I read that using the http proxy was very slow compared to using ajp, and that it would be quicker to use Tomcat directly.....

Most of my site is generated by JSP and servlets so if I do want to run Tomcat under Apache HTTP then it has to be done in the most effiecient way. Mod_jk seemed to work pretty well....

..thanks Steffen,

...that looks useful. I will substitute that in for the mod_jk 2.0.55 and see if it works with the same workers property file...
