RE: Help configuring mod_jk! Apache 2.0.54 + Tomcat 5.5.12 + SuSE Linux 10.0

[Brent Andrewsen <ba...@novell.com>]

You may need to install the apache2-devel packages in Yast which you can
find by searching for "apache2", then selecting apache2-devel.

You will also need to add an entry for "jk" in this file:
/etc/sysconfig/apache2

APACHE_MODULES="access actions alias auth auth_dbm autoindex cgi
deflate dir env expires headers include log_config mime negotiation
rewrite setenvif ssl status suexec userdir php4 jk"

Be sure to restart Apache.

Brent
