Arbitrary Tomcat mounting in Apache
I apologize because I've sent this email already with the subject "JK2
context mounting", but I didn't get a response.
I want to be able to mount a Tomcat URI at any arbitrary location in
Apache. Apache and Tomcat are currently working with the mod_jk2
connector with existing Tomcat URIs. I'm using Apache v2.0.44, Tomcat
v4.1.18, and mod_jk2 v2.0.3-dev on Solaris 9.
Here is some of my workers2.properties file:
[uri:/cocoon/*]
context=/cocoon/
[uri:/someapp/*]
context=/cocoon/someapp/
..when I use just the first (/cocoon/) entry, /cocoon/someapp/ works
fine. When I add the second (/someapp/) entry, both locations spit out
a 404 error. I can't seem to find any other possible configuration
method to do this with. This has to be a common problem and question.
I've searched Apache.org and Google extensively for the answer, but it's
no good. I even considered trying mod_webapp, but I'm using the worker
MPM (i.e. threaded) which mod_webapp doesn't like. The "uriMap" config
sounds promising, but there is zero documentation for it, and I couldn't
get it to do anything useful while I was experimenting.
Can anybody help me out? Thanks!

I didn't have any luck at all with this. I'm going to give up and make
the Tomcat side match what I want on the Apache side. It's far less
convienient for me, but so be it. I propose a new feature that takes
care of this issue, maybe called "uriAlias"?
Opinions?

Well, I redefined DocumentRoot and <Directory> in [Apache
Home]/conf/httpd.conf so I could navigate to [Tomcat Home]/webapps (via
JK2), but perhaps this isn't the way it's best done - although it works.
Previously I could only navigate to [Apache Home]/htdocs. I would like to
hear more on this also.
Chris.

The actual location of the cocoon directory is _outside_ any
DocumentRoot or Directory definition. Is that my problem? I would not
have suspected that at all because, and please excuse my ignorance, I
thought mod_jk2 was more or less a glorified mod_proxy tailored for ajp13.
I'll try tweaking my Directory and DocumentRoot definitions and let the
list know how it goes.

Hi,
What is 'DocumentRoot' and the <Directory> tag set to in [Apache
Home]/conf/httpd.conf? Where is 'cocoon' in relation to this?
Chris.
