http.conf file

Greetings,

I'm very new to Apache Tomcat and working with version 6.0.35 installed on a Windows 2008 64-bit server. Much of the configuration information that is referred to in the docs found at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/ and elsewhere refer to an httpd.conf file.  I'm unable to locate that file in my installation.  Have searched all the typical locations referenced on the web as well as hidden/system files to no avail. Do I have to create that or is it even pertinent to my installation?  Thanks much and excuse the basic question please.

Thank you,

Andrea Welch

Note that those cases use httpd as a front-end.

For redirection with a stand-alone Tomcat, try this:
http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/

if you are using Apache HTTP Server as a proxy you will need to 1)configure httpd.conf parameters for mod_proxy
2)install mod_proxy.so (or mod_proxy.dll for windows) into your modules folder Instructions available athttp://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html

Hi Chuck and thanks for the reply.  Regarding the official docs - the Proxy Support section is one place that I noted the reference to the httpd.conf file. We've also been struggling with redirection of an app to be the root app and most of the support information I've found for doing that online have referred to an httpd.conf file modification.

Can you be specific about where in the Tomcat docs this is mentioned?

Unless you're using Apache httpd to front-end Tomcat, it's not pertinent.
