Re: Configuring Apache Web Server with Tomcat

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

I am using Tomcat6 but i could not find any thing to put in Connector configuration of tomcat file. Can you please help?

- When i said "working fine" .. i meant that JSP pages are viewable if i browse at 8009 (the path i mentioned earlier) but if i don't mention the port then it's not working (jsp pages).

- What happens when i start both things. 

   - when i go to site http://localhost/ (it dispalys its works) 

   - If i browse to any site at 8009 .. its works

   - but if i try to browse to any jsp/servlet at port 80 .. it doesn't work .. (that's the problem).

PLEASE tell me which properties should i fix so that i may get tomcat and apache working.

You don't need worker.properties if you are using mod_proxy_ajp.
worker.properties is only for using mod_jk (an alternative to
mod_proxy_ajp in httpd 2.2, and the only viable game in town for AJP in
pre-2.2 versions of Apache httpd).

Just get rid of the worker.properties file.

Wow. What version of Tomcat are you attempting to use? This
configuration looks seriously old. If you are just starting out, try
using Tomcat 6.

Really? Making an HTTP request on port 8009 isn't going to work: that
port is serving AJP13 requests. What do you mean it "is working fine"
when you "test to browse some JSP" files?

So, you want to use port 80? That's what Apache httpd should be doing
for you: proxying port 80 traffic through AJP (port 8009) to Tomcat.

What happens when you start everything up and actually try it? If it
works as expected, I'd say that you have done at least most of it correctly.
