Re: Tomcat, mod_jk and Apache...again!
Finally someone sharing my point of view...:-) I have seen this done using Tomcat 3.2.4, but not with mod-jk.. I'll have to check the server.xml file on that system more carefully to see if I can get any hints... My web administration would be easier if my jsps can be located together with my static pages - not to mention having users linking to these pages from their html pages using tools like FrontPage. I also would like to use http://somehost.somedomain/jsppage.jsp instead of http://myhost.mydomain:8180/jsppage.jsp when linking my jsp pages. Maybe someone out there has the solution? My guess is that my server.xml file might be wrong or incomplete, so any help would be appreciated. -- Regards, Tore Skogly lørdag 11. mai 2002, 01:30, skrev [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Personally, I would like to have the choice to put my jsp/html/images etc. somewhere besides the tomcat installation directory.

RE: Tomcat, mod_jk and Apache...again!
Tore, In order to help, please be more descriptive about your access restrictions, and the way you have set up your directories. Based on the things you have said so far, this may be your problem: Tomcat looks in its webapp directory for webapps to deploy. Even a single jsp page constitutes a webapp(albeit a simple one). I think you are missing this fundamental point of tomcat. Tomcat needs to look for your jsp pages, then compile them, and put them in a working directory where they can be served. It has no idea that there is such a place as /var/www/html, only a $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory. The only way you could let it know about /var/www/html would be to modify the xml config file. But it is much easier to just put your jsp pages in $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps, the way the system was designed. Sorry for any errors, but that is my understanding of it.

I'll give it another try, and hope someone can help me in sorting this problem out... Due to access restrictions my jsp files are located with my static pages under the /var/www/html directory. I will use Apache 1.3.23 to serv my static pages. As I will not be deploying any webapps - only a few jsp pages - i would prefer to use mod_jk instead of mod_webapp. When I browse jsp pages located in /var/www/html they are displayed as pure text pages and not as html Please anyone - I have struggeled with this for several days - can anyone help??

Re: Tomcat, mod_jk and Apache...again!
Thanks for your help. It made things clearer to me. I am using ldap to allow only some users to access webpages in different directories. Therefore it would be easier for me to keep the jsp pages with my html stuff. I guess I could try to edit the server.xml file and set /var/www/html as my webapp directory, but I might have to settle with what you suggests - put them in the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory. Thanks again for your assistance!

RE: Tomcat, mod_jk and Apache...again!
I haven't tried this yet, but you could just try linking your esternal jsp directoy into the webapps directory. in otherwords create a link $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/yourapplication - /var/www/html/jsps -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 10, 2002 4:30 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat, mod_jk and Apache...again!
