I'm giving up ...


Ok. I don't know how to use this. I confess.
But I'm trying to configure this on my server. It seems that everything is ok. I configured tomcat+apache and it works.

The question is: I have to access any user page if they want to use it. How to?


The address     http://localhost/examples/jsp/index.html   works

But I want http://localhost/~someuser to work too.


Are there documents about this?

Tanks,

Marcia Cardoso

PS: I use FreeBSD 4.7 + apache1.3.27+tomcat 4.1

You'll need mod_userdir.

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/host.html

should cover it from the point of view of tomcat.

alternately, you could configure apache to not send 
http://localhost/~username to tomcat and thereby have apache handle the 
user's public_html. exactly how you would do that is largely dependent 
on your apache configuration and desired apache+tomcat configuration. 
in short, you can configure apache/mod_jk  to only send specific 
request patterns to tomcat (using the JkMount directive). for example, 
if you want the user's public_html directory to be run through apache 
only and want the following to go to tomcat:
	/examples
	/manager
	/myotherwebapp
you could use the following JK directives in your apache configuration:
	JkMount /examples worker1
	JkMount /manager worker1
	JkMount /myotherwebapp worker1

you would need to configure apache to understand the ~username urls 
using the mod_userdir

the following urls should help you out:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/host.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/jk2.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/index.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/jk/aphowto.html
