Re: apache-tomcat-mod_jk-ssl
I have Tomcat 5.5.9 and Apache 2.0.54 running on Windows 2000, connecting them with mod_jk (not jk2). The only thing I want to do now is have Apache run Tomcat in-process like I did with jk2, is this possible? And if it is, what files do I need to update and configure? Thanks.

Re: Tomcat/Apache/JK(2)?
I have Tomcat 5.5.9 using JK to communicate with Apache 2.0.54 just fine. The workers.properties file is configured correctly, the httpd.conf is configured correctly, and I had to make a small change to server.xml to call my new site. This is all running on one Windows 2000 Server machine. When I first started this I was getting the problem listed below. Looking at the mod_jk.log I found that Tomcat 5.5.9 wasn't listening. So, basically what I had to do was start Tomcat MANUALLY, and then everything worked perfectly. So, what I'd like to do is configure JNI so with JK (not JK2 since it is now deprecated) and get Apache 2.0.54 to automatically start Tomcat 5.5.9. Or, I'd like to use JK (via Apache 2.0.54) to start Tomcat 5.5.9 in-process. In short, can I do this? If I can, can someone refer me to the steps I have to take in workers.properties, server.xml, and httpd.config to make this happen. BTW, in my research I have found people using JK to connect Apache 2.0.x to Tomat 4.x, but it usually involves modifying server.xml to use the Tomcat4 CoyoteConnector, and I wasn;t sure if that was available for Tomcat 5.5. Any help would be much appreciated, and if you need any more information from me, please let me know. Thanks.

Re: How to prevent direct access to login.jsp
I realize that you're asking if there is a Tomcat-configurable solution to this problem but that isn't the best way to handle this in the Java world. The Tomcat-configurable way might be to force a directory (or web-app) to force a new hit to the server instead of allowing the page to be cached in the browser. I'm not sure how you do this, but I am sure someone does. There is also a way to put a directive in the JSP page that forces it to refresh every time the page is hit ... there's a way to do it, but I've since forgotten yeah, I know, I am just so full of information. My personal best way to solve this is to use Servlets ... if my user goes to my login.jsp page, that's fine ... when they submit though it goes to a Login Servlet which does all the work and then re-directs to the login.jsp page with errors or failed validation. The Servlet uses a javabean to query the database, and if all is well, then the servlet redirects to the web-site itself. The Login Servlet also sets a user object in session ... so that if a user tries to bookmark a URL ... if the user object doesn't exist (because of timing out, or whatever), then I redirect them back to the login.jsp. I know a lot of people don't like that because they have server farms and the user has to be re-directed back to the same machine and objects in session take-up system memory. But, I don't put a lot into that object, it's very minimal, and I don't get many users for it to be an issue, and I bumped up the memory on that web-server anyway. Hope this helps. Thanks.

I haven't made any changes to server.xml under Tomcat. I don't plan on using Tomcat-Web-Server on 8080, I'd prefer to use Apache2 on port 80. Even though http://localhost works for static HTML, I'd like to get http://localhost/examples to work with Tomcat. Depending on the workers2.properties file, I get different results. Sometimes it says: channelSocket.open() connection failed to localhost 8009. This probably means Tomcat is not running which is why I want Apache startup to startup Tomcat. Thanks. Tom
Re: Apache 2.0.48 and Tomcat 4.1.29 and JK2
There was a way at one point that you didn't have to start Tomcat. There was a way at some point that starting Apache2 would also automatically start Tomcat as well at the same time. That way you didn't have to start one and then the other. I have this working on one machine like that ... can't remember how I did it though? Thanks.

RH 8.0 Tomcat 4.1.18 and Apache 2.0.43
I got Apache 2.0.43 and Tomcat 4.1.18 working with jk2 on my Windows 2K Advanced Server, and I got all the virtual hosts working. I am now trying to get SSI (server-side includes) to work though I followed all the directions, but that is a minor issue for me right now. I also have RH Linux 8.0 and it works great (I am a Linux newbie). RH 8.0 already has Apache 2.0 installed, but I am not sure which version it is, though I could find out. It looks like the HTML files reside in /var/www/html although thr server itself lives under /etc/httpd and not in /usr/local/apache2 Now I installed tomcat 4.1.18 and with the startup script it works fine by itself, and all the examples work. I copied over my config files for Apache2 and Tomcat and I just had this one question. On my Windows 2000 box, Apache runs as an NT Service and the Jk2 properties file is setup to run in-process ... hence all I have to do is restart Apache2 with the Apache monitor and Tomcat starts as well running in the background. So, should I do this in Linux? Should I run Tomcat first and then run Apache afterwards? If you can help me, or lead me to a helpful How-To or web-site or web-page, please let me know. Thanks.

Virtual host / web-apps / win2k and a BUG
I have been complaining about a problem I have had with Apache 2.0.43, Tomcat 4.1.18, Jk2 and Windows 2000. The problem stems from the fact that if you define multiple vhosts/web-apps listed in the httpd.conf file, then the last web-app will work 100%, but ONLY the last one. If you have multiple web-apps listed (before the last one), the JSP pages will only work if they are filed in the root directory of that web-app. If you put JSP's in any other sub-directory, they will NOT be displayed correctly. Only the source of the JSP page will show and that will be a MAJOR security problem for anyone using multiple web-apps on Apache-Tomcat on Windows 2000. This fix can be corrected if you put the URI information in the workers2.properties file. I have been told you do not need to do this if you put the Location tag inside the VirtualHost as I have shown ... but as I said this only works for the LAST web-app listed. I am 99.9% that this is a BUG with either Tomcat and/or Jk2 because of the nature of the problem and how I solved it. My next step is to take the same configuration and port it to Red Hat Linux 8.0 and see if the problem still happens.

Re: Virtual Hosts
Hi Chris, I am afraid we have two seperate issues. It seems like I solved your issues a few days ago and have a few new ones to work out. If you need any more help, send me a message directly and I will see how I can help. However, it seems so far that the answers you have already got will work. My issue is a little different, I have 3 virtual hosts and 3 different web-apps defined under httpd.conf, and I have 3 different Host and Context tags in server.xml. The JSP pages ONLY work with the last web-app defined. What I mean by 'works' is that the JSP pages get compiled into servlets, and then get served correctly by performing the business logic. Any other web-apps defined in the httpd.conf file do not work. What I mean by they 'do not work' is that the JSP pages do not get compiled into servlets, and do not execuet the business logic. Instead the JSP code shows up clear as day as if you were opening a text file. This is a major security problem, and I thought it was fixed. I've posted this issue at least on 3 different occasions now with no answers from anyone. It could be because this issue only happens on a Windows platform? I guess my next step is to test out this problem on Red Hat 8.0 Linux. If I can duplicate the same problem on that platform, I bet it will expedite a fix. Of course, if this isn't a bug in Tomcat, then I'd expect someone would point out that my configuration is wrong ... but that hasn't happened yet. Thanks.

Re: Virtual Hosts
John, don't worry about it. I got a couple of people who have a similiar configuration (Apache 2.0.43, Tomcat 4.1.18, and Win2k) with the same setup looking into my configuration files. If they can have multiple virtual hosts with multiple contexts working, then it must be something with my configuration. With open source projects the later versions are usually more stable, but the old idiom 'new systems generate new problems' also applies as well. I'll just keep working on this and waiting for these projects to become more stable.

Virtual Hosts
I have finally discovered the problem on why some of my web-apps are working and some are not ... it is either my configuration or a MAJOR SERIOUS BUG with Apache 2.0.43 and Tomcat 4.1.18 on Windows 2000.

JSP won't compile Source Code Showing
I realize that this is a tough question, but I am sure someone has come acrosss this error before. I have comnfigured Apache 2.0.43 with Tomcat 4.1.18 with Jk2 on Win2K. The http://localhost/examples works fine. I have even created virtual hosts and set up those web-apps and they all work. Now some of my JSP pages work and some won't. The ones that do NOT work, seems like they do not get sent to Tomcat, it seems that the JSP source just loads and that is a big problem.

JSP Pages showing source
Ok, this problem is pissing me off, and from all the research I have done, I can't figure out what is happening. 1) Tomcat 4.1.18 and Apache 2.0.43 ARE talking to each using mod_jk2.dll on my Win2K machine. 2) The examples DO work with either my localhost and domain. 3) My JSP pages DO work if they don't have a lot of complexity. Everything was working just fine up until this afternoon, I had JSP Pages working, I had gotton 3 virtual hosts working with JSP pages, and I had even figured out how to get JNDI Datsources working with little difficulty. But I ddid something wrong along the way and something crashed in my JSP page ... so I made some changes, made a little tweak to the web.xml file, did some other changes, and lastly restarted the Apache 2.0.43 which runs Tomcat in-process. NOW some of my JSP pages work and some JSP pages flat-out just show the source ... they obviously do not get forwarded to Tomcat for processing. WHY? I can see from the Apache Error Log that the communication from Apache and Tomcat broke at some point in time, BUT WHY did it happen? WHAT CAUSED IT? There is no other errors in any of the txt files, log files, and there are no .out files anywhere. Something broke and I can't even find out what it was.

Win2K, Apache 2.0.43 and Tomcat 4.1.18
I have spent the last three days looking at all the JK2 docs, and all the
sites, and even checked the archives of this list. I believe I have done my
due diligence on doing research before posting this message, believe me it
was a last resort.
1) Apache 2.0.43 was installed and works great on port 80
2) Tomcat 4.1.18 was installed and it works great on port 8080 if I run it
as a standalone.
I do want to integrate these two products and use Apache 2.0.43 on port 80.
So, the httpd.conf works great with loading the module mod_jk2-2.0.43.dll,
no problem there.
The file $(tomcat_home)\conf\server.xml hasn't been changed at all, maybe
it needs to be.
I tried following the web-site instructions on:
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk2/doc/
on setting up the jk2.properties
my jk2.properties: these are the only properties set, everything else is
commented out.
This is supposed to be the configuration to make JNI work for AJP13.
# Set the desired handler list
# handler.list=apr,request,channelJni
handler.list=apr,request,channelJni
# If set to inprocess the mod_jk2 will Register natives itself
# This will enable the starting of the Tomcat from mod_jk2
apr.jniModeSo=inprocess
For size reasons, I am going to include the workers2.properties file which
lives in the correct location of:
${apache_home}\conf\workers2.properties
So, where is what works http://localhost:8080/examples all the JSP's
work and all the Servlets work, but that is the local web-server of tomcat.
I want the same thing to work with http://localhost/examples as well.
So, what am I doing wrong ... because there is something not set correctly,
but I am tearing my hair out by not being able to get this working.
I am also going to include my error log so you can see what is going on with
that. This is the error log from Apache 2.0.43.
Please look at my files and see what you can do to help me with my mistakes.
TIA.

Re: tomcat, and servlet testing in a multi-user environment
This is a common problem I have had at past employers. What we do now at my company is give everyone Tomcat, it's free right? We have what is called a Deploy Manager or Build Manager. Once a week the DM (or BM) will take the most recent checked-in code from Microsoft Visual Source Safe, move that to the Test server, and then we start Regression testing. We want to make sure everyone's code works with everyone else's. That one server can be started or stopped without bothering everyone else. By having everyone use VSS (or some other Source Control tool) we check in only working code. Everyone daily pulls down the latest code and in a way does their own regression testing on their own machine making sure their code works with everyone elses. The final say is when the BM or DM pulls does their Regression testing. At least once a week, we know everyone's code is working together.

JDBC/JNDI DataSource
I looked through the archives first, so I think this question has been answered before. Does Tomcat support JDBC/JNDI DataSources and/or Connection Pooling? I heard a rumor that Tomcat 4.x is supposed to have support for this, but how long has it been out for, and is Tomcat 4.x stable? Currently, I amusing Orion as my App Server and I love it. It's small, convenient, can be easily moved around, and supports JNDI/JDBC Datasources. It's free to developers, but $1500 per Server for Commercial use. On two projects that I may be on, they are thinking about going to Tomcat 3.2.x. I really don't know that much about this server except that it's Open Source, can tie in with a few different web-servers (Apache, IIS, etc.), and that it can execute JSP, Servlets, and JavaBeans, but not EJB's ... is that correct? So, I didn't know if it would be worth it to test out Tomcat, or stick with my Orion for now. Thanks for any help. Tom
