Apache Httpd & Tomcat error pages
Hi all,
We've got an Httpd 2.0 server sitting in front of a Tomcat 5.5 with mod_jk.
Tomcat has several <error-page> set up, amongst which HTTP 404, and so has
Httpd.
When the user tries & retrieve an inexistent page, he or she receives the
page from Tomcat, with a 404 error-code. Can anyone explain me why the error
page doesn't come from Httpd ? Is it expected behavior from mod_jk ?
Cheers,
Pierre

Pierre, I think its just the mapping in your JK files...
eg:
JkMount /theWebApp/*.jsp lb
Means any jsp file under /theWebApp
even ones that dont exist... so TC does 404's
but
JkMount /theWebApp/myFile.jsp lb
would mean
/theWebApp/IDontExist.htm
would be 404'd by apache
... I think ;)
