mod_jk under RedHat ?
Hi.
Would anyone happen to know the "package name" of the mod_jk binary package under RedHat
Linux Enterprise 6 ?

Beside that list, there is a difference between httpd versions
although we try to make mod_jk buildable from 2.0 trough 2.3.
This is just one point why we won't ship mod_jk binaries
for posix platforms any more.
First we don't have an infrastructure with all that platforms/version/cpu
flavors. If you see earlier release you will find two things.
1. Inconsistency
2. Incompleteness
So it might be you've just been lucky and one of the
core developers build the version that (might) work
on your infrastructure.
At the end, building is simple as:
./configure --with-apxs=/path/to/the/apxs(2)
make
sudo make install
Can it be simpler?

Andre, it doesn't surprise me that this channel is a paid for support channel. Did anyone troll through the JBoss community pages to see if there is a mod_jk package? I don't know how sensitive your customer is to using community-supported software from JBoss / RedHat (if it exists).
Chris, maybe a pointer on the following pages:
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-connectors.cgi
to a Wiki page detailing third party compiled binaries? Have a disclaimer on the above two pages stating that binaries for the connectors are not normally supplied, and the Wiki page contains information on binaries for various platforms.
There are a lot of potential problems with this, including implied endorsement by ASF for third party binaries (would a disclaimer be sufficient?), spam, and infected binaries.
Another approach would be to have Wiki pages with detailed build or installation instructions for each platform. The pages could then reference distribution channels (Debian/Ubuntu/OpenSuse), commercial channels (RedHat), requirements for compiling from source (RedHat, CentOS, Fedora).
Just some random thoughts . . . .
/mde/
And yes, I'll try to write up a Fedora compilation one (which should work for RedHat, CentOS, Scientific Linux). It may take me a bit, since I'm a software pack rat, and this system pretty much has everything under the -hat- installed.

This is probably worth putting in the wiki somewhere. We could have a
section where we direct people to get binaries for various platforms if
we know about them.
Maybe instead of the wiki, it could go directly into the "binaries"
folder's README, so they are linked-to from the place people would end
up if they were trying to download a binary.
I know that Debian/Ubuntu has a package for mod_jk called
"libapache2-mod-jk" so you can just do "apt-get install
libapache2-mod-jk" and it will get all the deps (libc6 (>= 2.7-1),
apache2.2-common, apache2), etc.
So we have two data points (RHEL and Debian). Maybe others can also
contribute.

Re: mod_jk under RedHat ?

For both threads :
Binary of mod_jk.so for Apache 2.2.x
and
mod_jk under RedHat ?
Here is apparently the deal with mod_jk and Redhat (quoted from my competent sysadmin) :
In the RedHat product "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" (RHELS), there is no repository
containing a pre-packaged mod_jk module.
To obtain such a package, the client has to purchase the separate RedHat package "JBoss
Enterprise Web Server", which contains mod_jk.
He adds (and I do not understand what that means, but someone else might):
'"JBoss Enterprise Web Server" is not a "Channel" that can be added to RHELS.'
I may comment on this later on, but for now, it seems that the alternatives for someone
who for whatever reason wants/needs to stick with RHELS and the pre-packaged software that
it contains, the alternatives to connect Apache and Tomcat are :
- use mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp
or
- use mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http
(which are part of Apache 2.x, which is available in RHELS)
or
purchase the additional RedHat product "JBoss Enterprise Web Server", in which case you
can also use the included mod_jk package.
For someone who wants to stick with RHELS, does not want to buy the additional "JBoss
Enterprise Web Server", but can/is allowed to install other packages, an additional
possibility is to use mod_jk, after compiling it from source.

Many thanks.
I'll pass that over to the customer's sysadmin.
Let's see if he finds anything based on that.

I only have Fedora 15 here, and yum search for mod_jk didn't result in anything useful.
However, after a bit of searching, I came up with the following links:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhsa-announce/2011-June/msg00022.html
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0897.html
So maybe it's in a different repository than the normal RedHat ones?
It looks like the three of interest are:
mod_jk-ap20-1.2.31-1.ep5.el4.x86_64.rpm
mod_jk-debuginfo-1.2.31-1.ep5.el4.x86_64.rpm
mod_jk-manual-1.2.31-1.ep5.el4.x86_64.rpm
Adjust for your architecture (i386 or x86_64).
It looks like you have to subscribe to the JBoss Enterprise Web Server channel to get these RPMs. See:
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/JBoss_Enterprise_Web_Server/1.0/html/Installation_Guide/sec-Subscribing_to_RHN_Channels_and_Installing_EWS_from_RPM_Files-Linux.html
Hope this makes sense.

I don't think so.
This is for a customer, to which I asked to install mod_jk on their RHEL6 system. The
sysadmin just sent me a message asking what "mod_jk" was, as he could not find it on the
RedHat repository. I don't have a copy of RHEL6, that's why I'm asking.

I don't have a RHL box handy, but could it just be "mod_jk"?
This page has a link to an (old, presumably) RPM:
