RE: Tomcat ROOT == Apache Root
This is what everyone [or just about everyone] wants to do with their
systems... I believe an real-world example of this is an imperative for
Tomcat's deployment-level documentation.

Subject: Tomcat ROOT == Apache Root
Hi ! I want Tomcat ROOT to be equivalent to Apache root (htdocs). Is there
any way to do that ?
Of course the goal is to let Apache serve static content while Tomcat serves
dynamic content but I want the home page to be a jsp file without having to
create or to show a sub directory (web app).
Thanks for any hint.

This is what I'm doing.
Perhaps this will be somewhat helpful, I hope not annoying.
The docroot is the context.
Static html, images, pdf's and for me php go to apache.
*.jsp and mounted servlets go to tomcat.
It's nice because the jsp/servlet subrequests [images etc]get handled by
apache.
I run name based virtual hosts thru apache each one of which gets its own
jvm/instance of tomcat.
I plop the servlet mount directives in in the virtual host directives and
inform apache what port to
connect to tomcat thru.
One can even modify the tomcat shell script to start / stop all the tomcat
instances.
I then include this file with the other glorious sys V init scripts and viola
it all starts
when I reboot the machine.
I am actually quite thrilled with the setup and tomcat on whole.
But I prattle, here are the pertinant entries in the various con files.
server.xml:
*snip*
<Context path="" docBase="/path/to/apachesorvhosts/htdocs/" debug="0"
reloadable="true" >
</Context>
*snip*
httpd.conf:
-----------------------------------
*snip*
LoadModule jserv_module libexec/mod_jserv.so

ApJServSecretKey DISABLED

ApJServLogLevel notice
ApJServDefaultPort 8007
ApJServMount default /root
AddType test/jsp .jsp
AddHandler jserv-servlet .jsp
*snip*
# this I enclude in th vhost sections.
<location /WEB-INF/>
AllowOverride None
deny from all
</location>
# I use this for the mvc jsp's.
<location /jsp/>
AllowOverride None
deny from all
</location>
## this is a full url mount on this servlet
ApJServMount /Foo ajpv12://localhost:8007/root

Including tomcat-apache.conf has not worked for me either, but Apache seems
to work well when I include tomcat.conf instead.

In "server.xml", point the root context at the same directory as your
Apache document root:
<Context path="" docBase="C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs"
debug="1" reloadable="true">
</Context>
I personally don't include "tomcat-apache.conf" into the Apache
"httpd.conf", because I was moving from a JServ setup, and I think
there is a bug in 3.1 where the docBase specified in the Context is not
reflected in the directories emitted in the Apache directives.
The keys bits (apart from all of the ApJ* settings) from my Apache
"httpd.conf":
To have JSP pages passed to Tomcat:
AddType test/jsp .jsp
AddHandler jserv-servlet .jsp
To have "index.jsp" to be used as the directory index page:
DirectoryIndex index.jsp index.html
If you do have a "WEB-INF" directory, then you will need to add the rules
for denying access, as this is also not put into the apache-tomcat.conf
for the <Context path="" ...>.

To get me started on updating the Apache HOWTO, what's the "right" way to do

Agreed,
However, there are, IMO, "right" ways to do it and "wrong" ways. It would
be important to show the "right" way to do it.

Agreed,
However, there are, IMO, "right" ways to do it and "wrong" ways. It would
be important to show the "right" way to do it.
