Re: SOLVED: How to get the context path for a web application?
On Tue, 10 Aug 2004, David Wall wrote: No, and an archive search would reveal past discussions around this issue (though none recently). Webapps are supposed to be independent of their server configuration including with regards to context path, and so the Servlet Spec actively discourages you from doing webapp initialization or configuration based on such data. A lot of people debated for a long time what does and doesn't go into the ServletContext/ServletConfig objects as opposed to Request/Response objects. True and it's mostly not a big issue. However, is it possible for a ServletContext to reference one context path and the Request objects to have a different one? Most webapps only operate under a single context path (don't they?), so having it at initialization would be nice too. Oh well... With the path, I could build URLs for email and other logging info at initialization that cannot be done dynamically without knowing the host/port/contextpath. You could always pass it in yourself as a context variable (i.e., context init-param). The problems then are that you're duplicating data and reducing portability.

I am using Tomcat included in the Java Web Services Developer Pack v1.3. The double call of contextInitialized() happens for both my servlets, and the example servlets that have listeners defined. The only hint I have at the moment is that when incrementing one static and one instance counter within the listener, on both calls both variables are 1 (from 0), so could two different classloaders or VMs be instantiating the ContextListener, and what would cause that? I don't have any virtual hosts defined. Sounds like you have two *instances* of your servlet being loaded (so it's two separate instances of contextInitialized() being invoked). This can happen if you have two different definitions of the servlet in your web.xml, and/or perhaps if you have your webapp/context being loaded twice, like one automatically (because of an attribute setting like autoDeploy/deployOnStartup) and once because of a Context element in your server.xml and/or a seperate context configuration file.

The problem is that the timestamps on the jsps in question have not changed, so Tomcat has no reason to recompile them (which is what is necessary for it to find the new included file). People have come up with two suggestions to help: 1. touch the jsps -- touch is a Unix command which updates the timestamp on a file. If you're not using Unix, perhaps your system has a similar command. 2. delete everything under Tomcat's work subdirectory -- that's where jsps are compiled (first into java source files and then into class files). These files are used as the baseline for the timestamp comparison, so if they don't exist, any jsp will be deemed new. Either of these should do the trick. The latter one may be the better way to go though. Many people routinely delete everything under the work directory as part of the Tomcat restart process. I believe these files are all automatically generated so it shouldn't hurt to delete them.

That's more for when you're going to have multiple Tomcat instances, and you want to eliminate redundancy and reduce the amount of total space used.

I have separated /webapps, /conf, and /temp from /bin, /common, /shared, and /server. The only issue that I see upon upgrade is that I need to copy my libs in /common and /shared if I install the new version to a new directory and change CATALINA_HOME appropriately. I'm interested to hear what other issues you see with this as /conf wouldn't be affected by a new tomcat point release to CATALINA_HOME. [ ... ] Well, with the caveats that I don't have extensive experience with different Tomcat setups and I've only just come up with my current setup (so it's kind of a work in progress) ...

(I was hoping to use symbolic links, but then I ran into the problem I posted about.) When I upgrade Tomcat versions, all I do is drop the new distrib in, change the /usr/local/tomcat link, copy the context configuration files in, and voila!, I'm up and running. Maybe the differences are minor as compared to your setup, but I think they are there. For example, you may have to re-copy conf and/or webapps (I believe there can be changes in what's under those directories on new point releases). Basically you don't have to worry about splitting the distrib up between $CATALINA_HOME and $CATALINA_BASE, and any potential issues related to that that could come up with an upgrade to a new version.

This is another Pandora's box. Not everything Tomcat does is controlled by the spec, so some choices it makes, and some choices you make in using it, are not going to be covered by the spec, and hence subject to the potential of not being portable.

And the answer, I think, depends on how you have Tomcat configured (e.g., in terms of auto-deployment of webapps). I'd say that if you're using a context configuration file, that's part of the webapp. And if you haven't deleted it, you haven't really deleted the webapp. I removed the Context for that webapp in conf/server.xml. Hmmm -- you had a Context element for this webapp in server.xml *and* a separate context configuration file? That's redundant, because they serve the same purpose. I'm not sure what would happen in that case -- were you per chance seeing your webapp starting up twice? And the deleted project directory is located outside of TOMCAT default webapps/ dir... . Which means there has to be some element inside Tomcat's configuration (either in server.xml or a separate context configuration file) that lets Tomcat know about it.

As to contributing a patch -- well, I don't want to open up that Pandora's box :-). But most likely someone already has knowledge of how/why Tomcat is creating the configuration file, they're the most likely choice to look into this.

Would this be a proxy thing or is something I can set in Tomcat? Is there something that wouldn't require the overhead of reflecting upon every single request at the Java level? Thanks. neal I think if you're using Tomcat standalone, the security-constraint technique that others have mentioned is the way to go. But if you're using Tomcat behind Apache, you should be able to control this by controlling what resources are available to each instance of the server (with http being one instance and https being another). For example, you can set them up as separate virtual hosts, and then control what resources are accessible within each virtual host. Works for us.

Tomcat needs time to start up, and the ApacheConfig class needs time to write mod_jk.conf (or whatever file you are using). So, you have to put a delay into the process somewhere. Like a sleep 20 or something right after the Tomcat script executes, but before Apache is started, or take both of them out of init.d and put the startup into rc.local where you have more explicit control over what runs when, and stick the delay in there. Another solution is to not use ApacheConfig (i.e. and the dynamically generated mod_jk.conf file) at all, just use some static version that you created. In fact, this makes a lot more sense to me, for a number of reasons, including that I don't believe ApacheConfig can capture everything that needs to go into that file, and that once you have things set, it's not going to change that frequently (so you shouldn't have to regenerate it every time you start Tomcat). -Original Message- From: Arcadius A.

By my reading of the docs (which are a bit confusing on this point), that'll cause it to timeout every time; a setting of -1 is what disables it, if that's what you wanted to do. Or you could set it to 2 like the Coyote Http Connector above it. Or leave it blank, which means it would use the default (6). Anyway, it should be a relatively simple matter to try it with a different value (restarting Tomcat, of course) and seeing if it makes a difference.

I haven't had a chance to read the man on ps, but I did quickly try pstree -aup as you suggested. It looks like (if I am reading the tree right) there is only one java process, with a number of threads branching off. The same for the httpd process. Just out of curiousity, why would so many threads be spawned just after starting the services before doing anything? There are several things those threads could be created for. First of all, tomcat is set up to do one request per thread, and it typically creates a pool of request processing threads to handle requests (you can control this somewhat because most/all Connector's have minProcessors and maxProcessors attributes). So, initially, some minimum number of such threads are created right away. There will be other threads for bookkeeping kinds of things, like perhaps to invalidate sessions. I'm not really sure what other things other threads would be for. I think someone (Craig McClanahan?) recently posted about what some of those threads are doing, if you're really curious, you can look that up in the archives. -Original Message- From: jon wingfield To: Tomcat Users List Sent: 12/19/2002 1:47 PM Subject: RE: Naive question thread i use pstree -aup.

This was a thread in which John Turner, Denise Mangano, and some others had been participating. Anyway, Denise posted the output of ps that had a whole bunch of java processes listed. I'd be concerned about the number of such processes, because normally there shouldn't be so many -- in fact, most typically (i.e. one tomcat instance), there should be just one. Now, Denise said she's using linux, and it's my understanding that ps under linux will list threads, not just processes. So it's possible all those java listings were all the threads running in one java process. And I think there's an option to ps to cause it list actual processes, not threads. So you might try that and see what the output looks like.

This says to me that there is a lot more involved in creating a web.xml than just copying it over from the conf directory. But realistically I don't And that is something that you should probably learn, because it may help in this situation, and if not, it quite likely will help in the future. webapp-specific web.xmls's do not have to be very complicated. really want to create one just for my app; my app is and will be the only app on my server.

RE: ROOT app new user question...

Starting to feel like all I do is take in this list ;) Are you speaking of the index.jsp page? The page that says If you are seeing this page then you have installed Tomcat correctly? If I understand what I've been learning myself, there is a directive in the server.xml file that defines the Tomcat Server Root Context and defines the docbase as ROOT telling Tomcat where the default directory is located (within the webapps directory of course). Now I suggest getting verification from other people on this list first, but I imagine you can change this? Perhaps create a new folder on the same level as the current ROOT folder, and make that folder the doc base? - Seems logical enough, but then again I am no pro I think what you want is a context with the path as and docbase as the webapp you want (i.e. the directory where it's located). Note that the built-in Tomcat manager and admin webapps are not under the ROOT context, and are available elsewhere (with context-path's of manager and admin, I believe). I think you do want to be a little careful doing this, because if you set up some webapp on the ROOT context (i.e. the empty context-path) like this, there may be some conflicts (e.g. you can't have a servlet in the ROOT context mapped to something that is a context-path for another webapp, because it will be ambiguous and I think Tomcat will prefer the webapp.) Being a newbie myself, the way I try it first (avoiding the risk of messing anything up by changing the docbase), is to rename that index.jsp file to something like index_admin.jsp. Then upload the file I want as my default webapp as index.jsp. If I ever wanted to pull up that Tomcat page with the links to the Manager and Admin, etc - I would just type in www.mydomain.com/index_admin.jsp . Hope that helps!!

On Wed, 18 Dec 2002, Michael Finney wrote: Thank you. I figured it comes up all the time and trying to find something in the jGuru FAQ was not yielding anything. PHP may be desired by someone on the team. However, increasing the complexity of the architecture topology just to use PHP does not seem like a great idea. Apache doesn't run as root on port 80 ... sounds like the only applicable reason. I assume Tomcat handles requests as root then. That would get into security issues. I'd say that normally people who are running Tomcat standalone just run it on a non-privileged port, like 8080, the default out of the box port. That may be an issue, since then that port, since it's not the default http port, will have to be included in all the url's. You'll then have to weigh the pros and cons of the various different alternatives (including leaving it like that) for your particular situation, and decide what you want to do. --- Turner, John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This comes up all the time. Some reasons why you would want to run Apache (there are many): - Apache doesn't run as root on port 80 (at least when serving requests) - Apache has modules like mod_rewrite that you might need - Apache can handle other technologies besides Tomcat, like CGI and PHP, all at the same time. In a shared environment or an enterprise environment, it's very possible that you'll have legacy apps that you need to support, like CGI or PHP, in addition to Tomcat - can load balance requests to multiple Tomcat instances on other servers and more and more. In general, if Tomcat works for you as a general purpose HTTP server, then use it that way and be happy. That doesn't change the fact that there are plenty of scenarios where using Apache + Tomcat is a more appropriate solution.

Naive question thread
Saw a post in the naive question thread earlier today that I wanted to respond to, but my quick delete finger got to it before I got around to it. This was a thread in which John Turner, Denise Mangano, and some others had been participating. Anyway, Denise posted the output of ps that had a whole bunch of java processes listed. I'd be concerned about the number of such processes, because normally there shouldn't be so many -- in fact, most typically (i.e. one tomcat instance), there should be just one. Now, Denise said she's using linux, and it's my understanding that ps under linux will list threads, not just processes. So it's possible all those java listings were all the threads running in one java process. And I think there's an option to ps to cause it list actual processes, not threads. So you might try that and see what the output looks like.

Denise, if you are under Solaris try lsof (I'm not sure if the sources are available to compile it under another platform) Yes, lsof is available for a variety of UNIX platforms. Run: # lsof -i -n -C | grep 443 it should returns the process that is using the port 443 (use -C option if you are under Solaris 5.8) I can't get this to work for me on my system (AIX). First of all, there's no -C option (perhaps because, as you suggest, it's a Solaris-specific option). But I think more importantly, it says it's rejected because of security mode. apache/httpd is running as another user, and I'm guessing the sysadmin has things setup so I can't get that information.

Subject: HttpSessionListener beforeSessionDestroyed (Craig, Sean)?
Hello Everyone in Java Land,
I want to use beforeSessionDestroyed. Before going off and extending
HttpSessionListener, I decided to see if it'd been done (why reinvent the
wheel?).
I searched on google for my aptly-named method, and found this:
http://archives2.real-time.com/pipermail/tomcat-devel/2002-March/028610.html
How can I use this? is there an interface for a StandardHttpSessionListener or
something? If so, does beforeSessionDestroyed give me access to the session
that is about to be destroyed?
If not, I propose to make an interface that extends HttpSessionListener and
provides for beforeSessionDestroyed. To do this, I will create and store a list
in application scope. Each session will get added to the list. When a session
is destroyed, I can loop through the list and find out which session expired:
In Servlet 2.3, the sessionDestroyed() method is called *after* the
session has been expired. In Servlet 2.4 (which is implemented by Tomcat
5), the current leaning of the expert group is towards changing the
semantics of this to occur *before* the session is destroyed instead.
Would it be too much trouble to have both? I can imagine uses for
both (mainly based on whether having access to the session itself is
required). I'm sure this idea has come up before, what were the
feelings about it?
Also, if it's before the session is destroyed, would the session still
be accessible and changeable? Having a hook to get in just before a
session is destroyed is useful, but moreso if you know that the
session won't be modified anymore.
Finally, I thought I saw that the 2.4 spec had reached the proposed
final draft; how likely is it that something like this will be
changed before it is final? (Below you suggest sending in some feedback.)
for(i = 0; i list.size(); i ++){
session = list.get(i);
if(System.currentTimeMillis()
- session.getLastAccessedTime()
session.getMaxInactiveInterval())
beforeSessionDestroyed(session);
list.remove(i) = null;
}
Any advice?
Obviously, this is not something that could be done in Tomcat by itself,
because it requires a change to the Servlet API. That can only be done by
the JSR-154 expert group. To send them your feedback, mail to:

Can someone tell me how to check what else is binding to port 443? 443 is the default SSL (https) port, so most likely it is Apache that is using it. You probably already have it running, and need to restart it (i.e. stop it then start it, as opposed to just starting it). Not sure about the other stuff. As far as why the jk2.properties, I have no idea! But I can say this, it looks like when I built mod_jk it uses a java file called ApacheConfig. This file has code that points to a different location for mod_jk is installed then where it actually is on my system. Is it possible that I need to modify this ApacheConfig file before I build or are my configuration settings supposed to override that. (In my error log below you can see that it still looks for mod_jk.so in libexec/ even though I changed that location in my tomcat config files... That still doesn't explain why even though its looking in the right place for my workers.properties file, it says the file is not there). Right now my first problem is more pressing... THanks!

On Thu, 12 Dec 2002, Denise Mangano wrote: Nope, its not commented out in server.xml. I'm not too sure what I am looking for but from what I can tell there is nothing abnormal in the logs. Question though - which if this is the case, you may get angry with me for bothering you with my dumb questions For Service Name it says Tomcat-Standalone Why would it say standalone if I am using it only as a servlet/JSP container? All this stuff (what appears in the logs, what services/connectors/etc. are running, etc.) all depends on what you have in your server.xml. For example, in there you can define one or more Service's, each of which can have one or more Connector's. When Tomcat starts up, you'll get a line in that log for each Service; so perhaps you only have one, and its name happens to be Tomcat-Standalone (the name is defined in the Service tag). That is one of the Service's that comes in Tomcat's server.xml out of the box (I think it has two, perhaps you've commented one out). Now, that name may be misleading, because it's arbitrary, and even with one Service you can have multiplce Connector's. So it may not just be Tomcat-Standalone that you are running. Connector's are basically access points into Tomcat, and they can either be standalone, like the HttpConnector, or through a web server, like Ajp13Connector. The new CoyoteConnector is kind of special, I believe, as it can handle multiple protocols (like both HTTP and AJP). So you should really look at what Connector's you have set up to see what should be going on. That's why someone suggested you post your whole server.xml, it will allow people here to get a totally clear idea of what you have setup. BTW, out of the box, Tomcat Standalone runs on port 8080. So whether or not you get something on that port depends on whether you have an appropriate Connector set up. And if you plan to always use Tomcat behind Apache, you might want to disable/comment out that Connector (although sometimes it's good to have for testing purposes). -Original Message- From: Turner, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 12, 2002 11:43 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Apache-Tomcat mod_jk The mod_jk.conf file should take care of your JkMounts as well as your LoadModule line, too.

RE: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3
On Wed, 11 Dec 2002, Denise Mangano wrote: Thank you so much for getting back to me about that. I have just been trying to read up on the mod_jk, and was hoping there was another option. I do have one more question though related to running JSP with Tomcat. If I make my entire form JSP, and run from within Tomcat, and after it communicates with the payment server, an updated JSP page will be displayed (depending on the data received from the bank). Would I still have to make the connection between Apache and Tomcat? It would basically be a link from my website to the form, which will be JSP. I put up a dummy page and had a link to one of the example JSP that came with Tomcat. The link worked Ok, and the servlet ran fine. Yes, to use JSP's, you need to set up Tomcat the same way you would if you are using servlets (basically). Servlets and JSP's are different entities, covered by different specs. But they are related, and typically a servlet container (such as Tomcat) will implement both of them. In fact, the way Tomcat (and most servlet containers, AFAIK) process JSP's, they *are* servlets -- that is, one of the first things that is done to them is that they are translated to a servlet. Also, in general, it is not recommended to put a lot of code in a JSP, and often systems are designed that use both servlets and JSP's. The only time you wouldn't need to connect Apache and Tomcat is if you are using Tomcat standalone, and that's an independent factor from whether you're using servlets or JSP's. -Original Message- From: Jerry Ford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 3:39 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Connecting Tomcat 4.1.12 with Apache 1.3 BTW, the configuration lines that go in httpd.conf for webapp are entirely different than what is required for mod_jk.

Re: Security constrant to force SSL works with apache+tomcat?

If i run tomcat standalone I can use request.getRemoteAddr(), request.getRemoteHost(), and request.getRemoteUser() to get some info I would love to have, but if apache is in front of tomcat the info is always localhost and null for the other methods, at least the way I'm doing it... So i was wondering if there was a way to get the same info i get with tomcat stand alone. I have apache in front of tomcat, and those methods work fine for me. So perhaps there is something else going on here, something in your configuration that is not right. Pretty much what I want to do is run an app that will be open to the public. It has a section that needs to be protected with ssl. And i would like to use tomcat standalone but if i use tomcat's ssl, i loose all objects i placed in the session before i swhitch to https... Is there a way to be able to access those objects in the non https session? AFAIK, pretty much no. Doing so would be a security risk. This has come up many times before, check the list archives. General recommendation is to not switch between http and https, always use one or the other. Also, I'm not sure I understand the need for using tomcat security constraints for forcing https usage when using apache in front of tomcat. It makes more sense to me to configure the web server instances/pieces so that resources that need to be secure are only available via https. You can control this by, for example, what DocumentRoot's the instances have, what tomcat webapps are mounted/available in the instances, etc. That's what I do. But maybe you're using a different model/setup/organization than I'm envisioning, one where it's not so easy to do that. (Of course, one option there is to change your model.)

The last two entries are for a different request, two seconds later. So
it appears that the processing stops after 'found a worker'
From what I recall when viewing our mod_jk.log, this is the normal
behavior. It found a worker, it's done its job, it then passes the
request to the worker. I think you'll have to look at logs further
down the chain (i.e. the tomcat logs) to see what's going wrong.

If setting up a customized client / server model is really necessary - then an RMI server, or EJB container would seem to be the best choices available at this time. Good points.

If you're using the default ports that are set in Tomcat's out of the box server.xml, 8080 is the port Tomcat standalone uses for direct http communication. This means that it's not going through Apache, and it's not for https/SSL communication. That explains why the first one works and the second one doesn't. I know that HTTPS listens to port 443 and my Application(Tomcat+JBoss) listens to port 8080 - so how do I integrate both the ports to work together? Any useful information on above is appreciated. Well, do you want to use Tomcat integrated with Apache, or Tomcat standalone (or both)? If you don't want to use Tomcat standalone, I suggest you disable it's HTTP Connector -- you can do this by commenting it out in server.xml. Now, assuming you set up Apache+SSL for a reason, you probably want to use that for your https communication. That means the URL you should use is: https://www.kithany.com/kithany/index.jsp This will go through Apache (on port 443, the default for https). But for this to work, that is, to get to Tomcat, you have to make sure you have the proper configuration set up, mostly in terms of the connector directives in your Apache httpd.conf file.

Do I have to set the apache SSL port to be 8080? If so, will it not ignore the tomcat conf and use the apche stuff instead (as it seemed to when I tried it) You need to understand the difference between running Tomcat standalone and integrated with a web server (such as Apache). In the former case, Tomcat standalone, Tomcat handles everything, including fielding the request and returning the response (including any SSL processing -- e.g. decryption or encryption -- if enabled). 8080 is the default port for Tomcat standalone, but without SSL. Tomcat standalone can do SSL, you just need to enable it in server.xml (you may have to install some additional libraries). The default port for that is 8443. Tomcat standalone is totally independent from any other web server. In the latter case, Tomcat integrated with a web server, the web server handles fielding the request and returning the response, but inbetween it passes the request to Tomcat for processing. This is done via a connector such as JK or JK2. You can enable/disable these connectors in server.xml. If you do it this way, you set up SSL on the web server only, not on Tomcat -- the internal communication between the web server and Tomcat is not encrypted. So you have to decide how you want things set up. If you don't want Tomcat standalone, disable the relevant connector(s) in server.xml. Then you need to set up one of the web server connectors; this is done partly in server.xml, but you also need to get the appropriate connector module binary and configure that for your web server. If you do want Tomcat standalone, but with SSL, enable the relevant connector in server.xml. (Also, would that be SSL only, or both non-SSL and SSL.)

I'm sure there are reasons that I'm not thinking of, however. Could someone fill in the gap for me? Why is Apache so much faster? I think I recall seeing some posts on this list that went into a little more detail (perhaps speculatively) as to why Apache would be faster than Tomcat on static content. Here are some possibilities I can think of: 1. C vs. Java 2. better use of NBIO, which has only recently been introduced in Java 3. better optimization, perhaps because Apache has been around so much longer and has seen much greater usage than Tomcat 4. better caching 5. better compression Also remember that with the web, we're not generally dealing with blazing fast speed requirements, so often fast enough is the criterion that should be used, not fastest. And with static content, there is no other processing (like DB queries) to worry about, so it's not like there will be other potential holdups. Another possibility (if the organization of your content fits it) is running both Apache and Tomcat standalone. You still have to set up Apache, but you don't have to do the Apache/Tomcat integration, which seems to be the most problematic area. Then you can have Apache directly handle your static content and Tomcat directly handle your dynamic content.

Subject:Tomcat SSL w/ Apache
I have an interesting problem that I don't know much about. I am
integrating Apache with Tomcat using mod_jk - and I have it mostly
working. The only real problem I have left - is getting SSL - which
appears to be working with Apache - to work with Tomcat.
I have both HTTP connector's disabled in Tomcat. The only
connector I
have up is Coyote's AJP on 8009. (Via tomcat 4.1.12).
When I switch to https and accept my self generated certificate, the
browser returns the compiled jsp page, without any non
secure warnings...
- but if I call %=request.isSecure()% - it returns FALSE
- even though I
am using HTTPS. I'm not sure why this could be happening.
In Apache - I have 2 virtual hosts mapped to the same
domain name - on
different ports - because I couldn't get it to work right
with just one.
mydomain.com:80
and
mydomain.com:443 (with all my SSL directives...)
Could anyone offer advise?
Randy

On Thu, 31 Oct 2002, Aryeh Katz wrote: Ok I just configures it to use ajp12 instead of ajp13. And now it works. Now I am really confused. First of all, in order for anyone to help you further, you should really specify EXACTLY what you did (preferably with a screen scrape so any typos can be caught), instead of saying it. Let me echo this. I found it very hard to follow what the person had/hadn't tried, what changed from post to post, etc.. And as a result, I just stayed out of the thread instead of trying to help, figuring it would be too much effort. And the whole idea of it worked from w2k to w2k but not from linux to w2k, so I don't have to show the configuration was a real red herring, because there are still so many configuration-related things that could have been involved. Second of all, the fact that you were able to connect using ajp12, that would seem to indicate that you had some kind of configuration error with ajp13. The easiest way to determine why would be to look at the tomcat log files (and maybe the apache log files). I'm sure that something will pop up if you set the logging high enough Another possibility (which perhaps has already been covered; as I said, I didn't follow the details of this thread) has to do with what's running on the remote machine running Tomcat. For example, if it's only got an ajp12 connector on port 8007, then looking for an ajp13 connector on port 8009 isn't going to work (and vice-versa).

Yes, I do need SSL, so it looks like Apache and Tomcat will have to learn to play nicely together. (Ditching Apache isn't an option-- it's doing some CGI stuff already.) Well, Tomcat standalone *can* be set up with SSL support (the default port for this is 8443, analogous to the non-SSL service being on port 8080 -- this is all covered in the server.xml file that comes with the distribution). However, I'd strongly suspect (and I think it's been brought up here before) that Tomcat's SSL performance isn't as good as Apache's.

The only disadvantage I see is that my Tomcat URL's will have to include a port number, since Apache is already listening on port 80. Anything else I should know? Sounds like you've got a handle on it, and yes, you can very well run both Tomcat standalone and Apache independently on a machine. This has come up before on the list (especially regarding the pros/cons of running Tomcat standalone vs. integrated with Apache). It may not be a consensus, but there is a good strong core feeling here that running Tomcat standalone is a very good option, and perhaps even is worth trying first to see how it works for you. If you stay on this list awhile, you'll see that the most common problems brought up here have to do with integrating Tomcat and Apache, so if you can avoid that, you're a step ahead :-). Also, while there are many advantages to running Tomcat integrated with Apache, performance on dynamic content is not one of them, so if you have mostly/all dynamic content, you'll likely get better performance with Tomcat standalone.

Thanks, but I think there is a better way to do it, such that the
request never even gets to the servlet or JSP page if it isn't

I'd think the cleanest way to do this would be by putting
appropriate directives in the http and https sections of the
httpd.conf file. That is (assuming mod_jk is being used), have the
JkMount's for http-OK servlets/JSPs in the section that applies to the
root/http instance/virtual host, and have the JkMounts for https-OK
servlets/JSPs in the section that applies to the https
instance/virtual host.
How easy this would be, or whether it can be done at all, might depend
on how things are set up regarding the directory structure of the web
applications. For example, if you have totally separate
directories/contexts for the http and https stuff, you're probably OK.
If you have them mixed, i.e. one directory/context that has both http
and https stuff, you might be in trouble. Of course, that may be a
bad design for a number of reasons (including the problem of mixing
http and https in the same context and sessions, which has been
discussed here previously).
