Apache - JK2 - Tomcat Question

[Geoff Wiggs <gw...@orcastech.com>]

I have a 'newbie' jk2 / Tomcat question.

I am running Tomcat behind Apache with mod_jk2 interfacing the two.

If I hit the URL www.myserver.com/contextname I get the JSP/servlet that I
am hoping for.  I am using the correct mapping ([URI:/contextname/*]) in the
workers2.properties and everything up to this point makes sense.

I am also running multiple virtual hosts through Apache.  I want to be able
to hit URLs such as dev.myserver.com or www.myVirtualServer.com/contextname.
If I use a redirect in the Apache httpd file, I can redirect the incoming
request back to www.myserver.com/context, but this seems hocky.  

How do I 'connect' alternate inbound URLs to a Tomcat context?  What is
controlling the connection between www.myserver.com and Tomcat?  

This is a great list and I really appreciate all the advice that I've
gleaned from it so far.

PS - Using Tomcat 5.5 and Apache 2.?

Just so you are aware, jk2 is deprecated in favor of jk. As of version
1.2.10 of jk, most useful features in jk2 should be in jk.

See http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/

This does not mean you cannot use jk2, it just has little support if
any.
