Tomcat & Static Content
Hi All,
Is there any good references on how to use Tomcat as a
web server? I currently use Tomcat behind an apache
server and thinking removing the Apache server but I
do not know if Tomcat would make a good web server. I
use PHP with Apache and need to be able to continue to
use that and a some blog software.
I also do not know how secure Tomcat is compared to
Apache.
Thanks,
-Tony

It's simply that Tomcat is a Servlet Container, as per the Sun Servlet
Spec. There are a number of ways to handle PHP, some more actively
developed than others.
Search the list archives using MARC, or Nabble, for historic threads
about PHP, it comes up about once a week.

Tomcat makes an excellent web server, however it's not ideal for use
with PHP. There are a couple of ways to make PHP work - Google will
provide some clues, if other list members who know more don't add to this.

It's secure, read the security section of the docs.
