VirtualHost and static/JSP files.

[Bob Byron <bb...@radit.com>]

I am interested in serving JSP from Tomcat and static data from Apache using VirtualHost.  I have gotten the system to work on a non VirtualHost machine, however, I am not sure how to get the concept to work utilizing VirtualHost hosts.

If you look at the Apache and Tomcat configuration sections at
http://docs.saurik.com/deploy/tomcat/ I think you should be able to get it
working.  That is the setup I currently have: static pages being loaded by
Apache, JSP files and servlets being loaded by Tomcat, all with VirtualHost’
s thrown in the mix.  The Tomcat people still haven’t fixed any of the bugs
(the big one being that Ajp13 dies when trying to send more than 8k of data
back from the JSP file) that I have patches for on that site (the cvs.patch,
the tomcat.patch is all configuration stuff to make my website shorter), so
it might be useful to go there anyway just for that.  I understand the other
two problems I patched, one might be desired functionality (although I doubt
it, it really messes with Tomcat’s ability to work seamlessly with Apache),
and the other might not really be a problem, but the 8k Ajp13 limit is a
rather bad, verifiable problem that should be fixed before 3.2 is released.
I am starting to think that is because I didn’t say “[PATCH]” in the subject
of the e-mails I sent the tomcat-dev mailing list before.  Will try again in
a couple days.  But I digress :-) .
