Please mail me the file sturctures and the contents in the required files. And the paths .

The problem is not with checking the file timestamp, you would really have to reorganize bigger parts of the code. We plan to do that for JK3, but not for 1.2.x. There are several partially dynamic things you can already do with 1.2.x: 1) Change the rules, which URL maps to which worker (aka JkMount). If you put your rules into a uriworkermap.properties, the mapping will be dynamic. The file gets checked for timestamp changes and is automatically reloaded after changes. See http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/uriworkermap.html 2) Member worker of a load balancer can by dynamically activated/disabled/atopped using a so called status worker with a web gui. Those changes are not persistent though. See http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/status.html 3) Other changes to workers.properties can only be activated by restarting the web server. Although that sounds little heavyweight, in fact "apachectl graceful" nowadays works quite well.
