Error switching to 4.1.12 from 4.0.4

[David Wynter <da...@roamware.com>]

Hi,

I had a IllegalStateException using Tomcat 4.0.4 with Turbine 2.1 and was
adviced to switch to a later version. I am on MAndrake8.2 using Sun JDK
1.4.1

So I deleted everything under /var/tomcat4/ and moved the untarred 4.1.12
into that directory. I then copied my web application back under webapps. I
start Tomcat and then Apache 1.3.23 and hit the site, it doesn't work.

I checked the server.xml against my original one to see what was different,
it did not have the connector for ajp12 on port 8007, so I added that.
Restarted and still no luck. I had a look at the workers.properties to see
if there was something obviously out of step with the new instruction for
4.1.12, nothing obvious to me, it is below.

I note that server.xml now has some coyote connector on port 8009 setup, not
sure what that is?

I did find an error in the error.log for Apache, here:

Here is the workers.properties content:

# workers.properties -
#
# This file provides jk derived plugins with the needed information to
# connect to the different tomcat workers.  Note that the distributed
# version of this file requires modification before it is usable by a
# plugin.
#
# As a general note, the characters $( and ) are used internally to define
# macros. Do not use them in your own configuration!!!
#
# Whenever you see a set of lines such as:
# x=value
# y=$(x)\something
#
# the final value for y will be value\something
#
# Normaly all you will need to do is un-comment and modify the first three
# properties, i.e. workers.tomcat_home, workers.java_home and ps.
# Most of the configuration is derived from these.
#
# When you are done updating workers.tomcat_home, workers.java_home and ps
# you should have 3 workers configured:
#
# - An ajp12 worker that connects to localhost:8007
# - An ajp13 worker that connects to localhost:8009
# - A jni inprocess worker.
# - A load balancer worker
#
# However by default the plugins will only use the ajp12 worker. To have
# the plugins use other workers you should modify the worker.list property.
#
#

# OPTIONS ( very important for jni mode )

#
# workers.tomcat_home should point to the location where you
# installed tomcat. This is where you have your conf, webapps and lib
# directories.
#
workers.tomcat_home=/var/tomcat4

#
# workers.java_home should point to your Java installation. Normally
# you should have a bin and lib directories beneath it.
#
workers.java_home=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1

#
# You should configure your environment slash... ps=\ on NT and / on UNIX
# and maybe something different elsewhere.

Any ideas what I should do. My company site is down until I sort this out.
