Tomcat 5.5.17 can connect to any webserver without mod_jk ?is this true?
Hi All,
I recently migrated to tomcat5.5.17 from 4.1.29.I got the info like we can
connect to any webserver wihout the mod_jk .is this true?please let me know
?if yes ,how to configure that?
(Currently tomcat 5 can connect with any webserver without using mod_jk
connector. Tomcat 5 has a connector called Proxy which can be used to
connect with Apache. For this we have to load mod_proxy library in Apache.)
Thanks in advance
~Raju

mod_proxy is the old proxy that Apache has had since 1.3 or earlier.
Basic idea is to pass on the incoming request to another server.
mod_proxy_ajp was introduced in Apache 2.2 to extend the mod_proxy
module with the ability to pass client HTTP requests back to a tomcat
instance via the AJP/1.3 protocol. Think if it as incorporating the
functions of mod_jk into mod_proxy.

This isn't *any* web server as per your previous post it is a specific
one. Different question, hence different answer.
If you are going to use mod_proxy then why not go the whole way and
use mod_proxy_ajp?

In that context, yes. Basically you are setting up a reverse proxy from
your Apache/IIS front-end to tomcat. In that event, each connector in
tomcat dedicated to a specific Apache/IIS front-end will need the
proxyName and proxyPort attributes so it can correctly generate URL
links. As for the howto, it looks like you already found one. There
are other docs on the web.
Word of Warning: Be careful with the proxy setup in your Apache or IIS
service that it doesn't become an open proxy.

This is not true. Take a look at
http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/howto/index.html for links to
web servers for which connectors are available. Be aware that Httpd
and IIS seem to be get the most attention from a development point of
view.
