AJP13 Connector and JKOptions

[Pete Helgren <Pe...@valadd.com>]

I have a Tomcat application that happily serves up a web app when I use

a URL like this:

http://www.mywebsite.com:8080/MyAPP  Which I wanted to change to this:

http://www.mywebsite.com/MyAPP

Using Apache I added the worker.properties file and the following 
directives to an existing Apache server that has been serving several sites.

#Tomcat Settings

# Mount the worker containing MyAPP
JKMount /MyAPP myappw

# Globally deny access to the WEB-INF directory
<LocationMatch '.*WEB-INF.*'>
      AllowOverride None
      deny from all
</LocationMatch>

The pages display but none of the images display and several of the 
webapps links are broken.  So, something isn't quite right. It is almost 
as though the application links aren't relative to the correct root.

I read through the JKOptions for Apache but can't tell if I need to add 
one or more options to allow the links to correctly display.

Using Tomcat 5.5 and Apache 2.2 any hints would be appreciated. I have 
connected Apache and Tomcat using AJP13 on a different server and I had 
no problems.  The only difference here is that I am not using a virtual 
hosts entry to route to the Tomcat site because this app will display at 
the same URL/port as all the other applications in Apache.

Thanks,

Pete

Hi.
Maybe start at the beginning and let us know :
- which version of Tomcat you are running
- on what kind of "box" (the OS)
- with which version of Apache

Then,
- do you have any reason to be using an Apache front-end, other than 
wanting to get rid of the ":8080" in your URL links ?
Because if not, then you do not need an Apache front-end to do that.
Just change the port="8080" to port="80" in the HTTP <Connector> element 
of your Tomcat's server.xml file, and restart Tomcat.
(But stop Apache first, otherwise they will fight for port 80).

If you have another reason to configure an Apache, then it is a bit more 
complicated. But please then provide the requested information first.
