Newbie here...Need help with Tomcat
Hello,
I am new to the Java and Tomcat world. I'm fairly experienced with Apache
and Perl, but I am having to do some stuff with Tomcat and Java files that
someone else has written.
I have a couple of questions...
If I run a version of Tomcat as a standalone web server, can I access a
database with it or will I need to set it up with Apache to access a
database?
I have been trying to attach Tomcat with Apache. I used mod_jk, and I could
run the java example programs in the "examples" folder, but it would not run
java programs under my own folder in "webapps". I believe I have the
folder,web.xml,etc. set up right because it will run the java programs in my
folder if I go directly to Tomcat via port 8080 rather than trying to run
them through Apache. Has anyone had this same problem or know something
that I should be doing?
Someone please help if you can. Thanks. Bryan

Tomcat facilitates database connections just fine. Apache is not needed
for this.

We'd have to know more to help. Many people are doing this. Relevant
portions of httpd.conf (not the whole thing), the Context definitions in
server.xml, etc.
