Problem with Apache1.3 & Tomcat 4.0.1
Hello
Here is an intro to my system and description of the problem.
Any suggestions/tips are greatelly appreciated
I am running Apache 1.3 on Debian (Woody) and Tomcat 4.0.1 downloaded
separatelly from jakarta
I have installed and configure Tomcat standalone succesfully.
However please note that my application is moved from webapps to the
users home directory
server.xml
<Host name="mywebsite.com" debug="0" appBase="">
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
directory="logs" prefix="site_access_log." suffix=".txt"
pattern="common"/>
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
directory="logs" prefix="site_log."
suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/>
<Context path="" docBase="/home/username/www/mywebsite.com.war"
debug="0" privileged="true"/>
</Host>
Note how the site is running from the war file (not extracted) and it
is NOT under webapps folder.
This all work fine until i get to
httpd.conf
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName mywebsite.com
DocumentRoot /home/username/www/mywebsite.com
DirectoryIndex index.jsp index.html index.htm
ErrorLog /var/log/apache/mywebsite.com-error.log
WebAppConnection warpConnection warp localhost:8008
WebAppDeploy examples warpConnection /examples/ <- **************
</VirtualHost>
What i need to figure out is the WebAppDeploy line.
I notice that it by default points to the webapps folder under tomcat
how can i specify my war file in here?
Also,
Do i need to specify my <host> under <Service name="Tomcat-Apache"> as
well?
Eventually i will not be running anything on :8080
Once again, thanks in advance for all your help!!!!

Doh! :) What do you think is my favorite platform after MacOS/X 10.1 ??? :)

Nope, right now all requests are forwarded to Tomcat if you deploy it as
your web-server "root", but there are going to be some changes in the future
about it (hopefully _near_ future), but I can't guarantee when that'll
happen.

Pulled the nightly from last night and got it to build on my Solaris
x86 box and actually work with Apache. That's cool.
Now though my question is about the above WebAppDeploy. If just '/' is
mapped does that mean all requests will pass through the mod_webapp
connector? I'm trying to get it setup so that just a {host}/servlet will
actually invoke the servlets. If I attempt something like :
WebAppDeploy /www/foo/java/servlet conn /servlet
where /www/foo is document-root and having to create a WEB-INF symlink
to that directory from inside of it, in order to actually have the
servlet fire the request is {host}/servlet/servlet/HelloWorld, which
looks like kind of silly. So, just a "conn /" would probably work, but I
don't need all the overhead of dealing with a module if it's not
necessary for each request. And does the mod_webapp work with JSP's or
is it back to the mod_jk world for that stuff?

WebAppDeploy /home/username/www/mywebsite.com.war conn /
I know that there's a bug with the distribution coming with 4.0.1, so I
strongly recommend you to get one of the nightlies...

If you don't need extra parameters, no, you don¹t... And I'd suggest you not
to add it since I'm planning to remove it from the WebApp distribution.
VirtualHosting should be a property of the connector, not of the container,
which should be web-application agnostic.

That'll be cool :)
