Important - Apache-Tomcat Module Choice

Hello all,

I would like to know, which of the following modules do you recommend as
Apache-Tomcat connector, w.r.to the criteria that I have mentioned below:

1. mod_webapp (It seems that this module is not active with in Tomcat
community and not actively developed by the dev team for various reasons,
please confirm the same).
	stability
	support
	performance
	suitability for production environment
	load balancing
	scalability


2. mod_jk2 (I am already using mod_jk and am fine with it. But, to leverage
some of the mod_jk2 features, I am planning to go for mod_jk2 also).
	stability
	support
	performance
	suitability for production environment
	load balancing
	scalability


Please advise me asap in this regard.


Thanks in advance,
Selva

We're now fully operational with JK2 on both Apache Web Server 2.0.44
and IIS, using the JK2 2.0.2 connector, Tomcat 4.1, and J2SDK 1.4.1_02.

The magic was figuring out (by trial, error, and input from participants
in this newsgroup) "semi-documented" entries into the jk2.properties and
workers2.properties files that MUST be present for it to work
properly...the major offender was the [shm:] entry which defines the
shared memory file name and size.  Without it, nada.

webapp is definitely easier to implement, but i think it only supports
non windows based sever for current releases. So i think mod_jk is the
way to go since mod_jk2 is so hard to set it up..Anyone got it running?
