RE: Apache 1.3.20 + Tomcat + (mod_jk or mod_webapp) for SuSE 7.3 Linux?

["Turner, John" <JT...@AAS.com>]

I think you are right, Milt.  I didn't pay close enough attention to the
actual directives to notice that there aren't any wildcards there.

Oh, sorry.  Hadn't followed the whole thread.  And seems like there's
another thread going with someone with similar problems/symptoms, so I
may have been getting them crossed.

Still, at it's base, the problem is that Apache is not forwarding
those URLs to Tomcat, and that all comes down to the Apache config
(i.e. httpd.conf and any Included files).  I think someone mentioned
looking at where in the httpd.conf file the JK-related configuration
directives are included, and I agree that could be a factor.

Wait a sec, I just went to the archives, and picked up the mod_jk.conf
that was posted.  Here are the JkMount's related to "examples" that I
found in there:

    JkMount /examples/jsp/security/protected/j_security_check  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/snoop  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/servlet/*  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/CompressionTest  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/*.jsp  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/servletToJsp  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/SendMailServlet  ajp13

I was expecting to see:

    JkMount /examples  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/*  ajp13

It looks like the two URIs he tried are:

    /examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp
    /examples/servlet/HelloWorldExample

I don't see any JkMounts above that would cover the first URI.  It
does look like the third JkMount above should cover the second URI, so
I'm not sure what's up with that.

Anyway, I'm still not convinced that this isn't a JkMount problem.
I'd suggest creating a conf file that includes the following two
JkMount directives:

    JkMount /examples  ajp13
    JkMount /examples/*  ajp13

as well as whatever other JK-related directives are essential
(e.g. loading the module, and specifying the location of the
workers.properties file and the log), Include'ing that file in
httpd.conf (there's nothing that says you need to use the
auto-generated one, you know), restarting things, and giving it
another try.
