I was able to move a large site (lots of legacy content and multiple virtual
servers)
over to serve everything thru Cocoon without changing any of the existing
URLs.
The apache.conf file looks like:
<VirtualHost www1.myserver.com>
ServerName www1.myserver.com
<IfModule mod_webapp.c>
WebAppConnection comConnection warp www1.myserver.com:8008
WebAppDeploy cocoon comConnection /
</IfModule>
</VirtualHost>
The Tomcat server.xml file has the cocoon directory as the default root:
<Context path="" docBase="cocoon" debug="0" reloadable="true" />
The only tricky part was handling the legacy CGI, that was handled by having
another virtual server
and then redirecting to it in the Cocoon sitemap.xmap file:
<map:match pattern="cgi-bin/*">
<map:redirect-to uri="http://www2.myserver.com/cgi-bin/{1}"/>
</map:match>
