Serving up static content through apache using mod_jk

Hi,
    I am trying to serve up some of our static content through Apache
instead of Tomcat

I am using apache 2.049 and Tomcat 5.025 with mod_jk 1.2.5

Lets say in tomcat I have a directory serving up static html called
staticserve. I reach it through
www.mydomain.ca/staticserve/index.html

I created a virtual host like this:

<VirtualHost *>
    ServerAdmin me@mydomain.com
    DocumentRoot %pathtoapache%/htdocs/staticserve
    ServerName mydomain.ca
    JKMount /* ajp13
    ErrorLog mylog.log
</VirtualHost>

and transfered the contents of staticserve to the staticserve directory in
htdocs.

My problem is that apache is not serving up the contents in staticserve,
tomcat is

I think I am just missing something small, any ideas?

Thanks James

Yes but in my case I have a ton of directories that are dynamically changed
so I want everything served through tomcat except some static stuff in one
directory:)

Any ideas?

I've never done that, so I wouldn't know.

I prefer the opposite approach: have a handful of JkMount directives,
one for each Tomcat-served URI or file extension:

	JkMount /*.jsp
	JkMount /*.do
	JkMount /special/*
	JkMount /j_security_check

If the JKMount /* ajp13 passes everything to the jk handler, is there a way
route everything
but /staticserve directory to the jk handler?

Yes -- the "JKMount /* ajp13" directive will pass everything to the JK
handler.
