Tomcat is not rendering JSP content on Port 80
I can get Tomcat to render JSP content if I try to (for example) access the
JSP installation examples using http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp But when
I try to try http://localhost/examples/jsp I get nothing but the raw html
code of the page (of a specific example).
I have an Apache - Tomcat server, and Apache is listening on port 80 (Which
is the default port used when accessing the server using its IP address.
Tomcat has the following code lines in its server.xml file, that I think
might serve as reference point to what I'm talking about:
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
and
<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="20000"
redirectPort="8443" />
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Apache 2.2 comes with mod_proxy as default. Either way, you must also
configure apache to use either mod_jk or mod_proxy.
You are trying to do this by using the 'auto config' mechanism in tomcat.

I personally have never used this and in the installations which I have
with Apache 2.2. I use mod_proxy so others may be able to help you more
here, but I still think that your problem is that your attempt to
service static documents with apache is overlapping with your attempts
to serve dynamic information from tomcat.
Have you checked that the workers.properties file is being created
correctly? What does it have in it?
You have explicitly set forwardAll to false, which is OK, but it also
means that you must configure apache NOT to look at the same folders
that you are using for tomcat. See the comment about noRoot and
forwardAll in the javadocs.
"Warning: When false, some configuration in the web.xml may not be
duplicated in Apache. Review the mod_jk conf file to see what
configuration is actually being set in Apache."
It would help if you could give us your folder layout and how you
expect that to map to your url structure.

Trouble with tutorials is that they are mainly created by people in
their spare time and they can't possibly cover every variation and
condition in a world where individual components of a project are
released on their own timescales and to meet their own objectives. I
always seem to find something doesn't quite work right when I try to do
it by rote from a tutorial and I end up debugging it myself, just using
the tutorial as a guide.

If all you're using httpd for is to serve static content, you're wasting
your time and creating much more complexity than you need. Current
Tomcat versions don't need assistance for serving static content, other
than for heavy SSL traffic; in that case, use the APR connector and
OpenSSL - still much simpler than adding httpd to the mix.

Re: Tomcat is not rendering JSP content on Port 80
Posted by BeasC <cg...@gmail.com>.
My intent is to have an Apache + JK + Tomcat server that uses apache only to
service static web content and and sends all dynamic content to Tomcat (so
that it handles all the JSP). I downloaded and installed Apache 2.2, Tomcat
6.0, and J2SE 1.5 (Becuase j2se 1.6 was buggy and giving problems). When
initially configuring the server, I included the following lines in the
Apache HTTPD.conf file:
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk-1.2.26-httpd-2.2.4.so
and in Tomcat I included:
<Listener className="org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig"
modJK="c:/apache/modules/mod_jk-1.2.26-httpd-2.2.4.so" />
and
<Listener className="org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig" append="true"
forwardAll="false"
modJK="c:/apache/modules/mod_jk-1.2.26-httpd-2.2.4.so" />
Basing most of the tutorials I have read about setting up this type of
servers, I thought this steps were sufficient to enable the server to work
in the above descirbed way. It appears, however, that I am missing
something...

Re: Tomcat is not rendering JSP content on Port 80

The effect you are observing is because you have configured your setup
to have the jsp files in the path of the document root for apache.
Apache knows nothing about jsp files so it is just returning the source
to you.
You have not specified O/S, JVM or Apache or Tomcat version.
You might like to read the tomcat documentation before going any further:
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/ajp/ajpv13a.html
would be a good place to start if you intend to use apache + tomcat,
together with
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/connectors.html
if you want to configure your version of tomcat to directly serve port
80 and not use apache at all.
A 'tomcat only' installation working with port 80 can easily be
configured in Windows using the control panel (or so I believe as I
don't use Windows myself). For a linux setup there are some additional
complications - see:
http://commons.apache.org/daemon/index.html
to avoid running tomcat as root.
Also you may find looking at archives of this list helpful.
If you can't find the answers in the above and generally,
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/index.html
then maybe you could specify your system more clearly and I'm sure
people will be able to give you more specific help.
