While I can't really address all the issues regarding which connector
to use, I will say that I had occasion to set up mod_webapp/WARP and
it was dead simple.  I downloaded the stuff and within 15 minutes I
had things running -- just a few lines of config (i.e. in Apache's
httpd.conf file) was all I needed.  (Of course, being able to download
the build mod_webapp.so I needed was a big help.)  This was to set up
a demo site for a presentation I was giving, so having something
running quickly/easily was the main concern.

So, if there aren't such concerns about having the maximum
performance, and whether Tomcat is handling some of the static stuff,
etc., mod_webapp/WARP may very well be a viable option.

Of course, another option is running Tomcat standalone -- then you
don't have to deal with any Apache-Tomcat connector, and everything is
that much simpler.  If a site is mostly dynamic stuff, this may very
well be the best option.  (Note that people talk about the lower
performance of Tomcat serving static stuff, but running Tomcat
standalone will also improve the performance of Tomcat serving dynamic
stuff; where the cutoff lies in terms of when this tradeoff is
beneficial, in terms of proportion of static/dynamic stuff, I don't
know.  But it's something to consider.)

2002-08-28 Thread Turner, John


While it will be interesting to see what the final solution is when using
WARP, I would say the consensus right now is that AJP13 is the "preferred"
connector.
