Intergating apache and tomcat with jk_mod.so
 

I am trying to integrate Apache 2.2.8 and Tomcat 6.0.33

The steps that I have done.

1. Downloaded and compiled mod_jk
2. Edited the worker.properties file like :
   
   worker.list=worker1
   worker.worker1.type=ajp13
   worker.worker1.host=localhost
   worker.worker1.port=8009
   
3. Edited the httpd.conf
   LoadModule jk_module /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so
   JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
   JkShmFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.shm
   JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.log
   JkLogLevel info
   JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] "
   JkMount /examples/* worker1
   

As per the configuration, if I try http://localhost/examples, I should be getting the tomcat apllication. Instead, I get a message "File does not exist: /var/www/html/ABC/examples" in the httpd error_log.

Anyone, any clue on this

Shouldn't that be /var/www/html/examples

@bathory /var/www/html/ABC is my doucument root.

What is your distro?
I guess from the docroot path, that it's RHEL based. If that's the case I would suspect a selinux permissions problem.

@bathory
Your are right. It's RHEL based.
Do you have any idea of the required SElinux context ?

Hi,

I'm not a rhel fan, so I know little about selinux. Anyway you should try to disable it temporarily and see if that's the case. Run
and check.
If it's selinux, relabel the docroot as in the example here.

Regards

@bathory,
Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the late update.
I was wondering how I missed, SElinux is disabled on the server. So that should not be the issue :(

I will brief my requirement again.
Now, in order to reach the tomcat service we should type in http://192.168.1.102:4455/examples/m...1034&room=chat
I would like to access the service by just typing in http://www.mydomain.com/tc/examples/...1034&room=chat

Any suggestions are welcome.

I would also like to know, if mod_rewrite will help !!!

Hi,

You can use mod_proxy or mod_proxy ajp for this.
Take a look at this howto for details.

@bathory
Thats a well explained tutorial. And that worked for me finally :)
Thanks a lot.
