Configuring Apache Web Server with Tomcat

[alee amin <mailing.list.mail.id@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to configuring apache webserver with tomcat using AJP but i am not sure am i doing it right or not.

Here are the steps that i followed

- Enabled required module in httpd.conf file

  LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so

  LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so

- Added the ifModule condition in httpd.conf file

  <IfModule mod_proxy>

ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/

ProxyPassMatch ^(/photos/.*\.jpg)$!

  </IfModule>

  Alias /photos "F:\projects\AL\Photos"

  <Directory "F:\projects\AL\Photos">

  Options Indexes MultiViews

  AllowOverride None

      Order allow,deny

      Allow from all

  </Directory>

- Added the worker.properties file to Catalina_home/conf directory with follwoing properties

   worker.list=testWorker

   worker.testWorker.port=8009

   worker.testWorker.host=localhost

   worker.testWorker.type=ajp13

- And finally adding the connector in server.xml file of tomcat

  <Connector 

className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.Ajp13Connector"

port="8009" 

minProcessors="5" 

maxProcessors="75" 

acceptCount="10" 

debug="0"

/>

Now i am trying to test to browse some JSP file at the following location "http://localhost:8009/examples/jsp/jsp2/el/basic-arithmetic.jsp" which is working fine. but i want to browse this file at http://localhost/examples/jsp/jsp2/el/basic-arithmetic.jsp. 

Have i done it right or there is something else that i can do?
