RE: Tomcat, Apache and mod_jk configuration
I'm trying to do a similar setup as well and I'm using just about the same configuration as shown below (I've attached my configs). But I'm having one big issue: when I try to do a hot redeploy of my webapp, I do not see the changes at http://rtv.myhost.com unless I restart Tomcat. BUT, I do see the changes immediately, if I go to http://10.2.1.100:8080/rtv. Any advice as to what I'm doing wrong would be very much appreciated as I've been banging my head on the desk for some time about this issue. The only big difference I see in the configs is that I'm pointing my apache virtual host's documentRoot to the same path as the webapp. If I don't do that, none of my static pages (.css, .js) get served properly, so I don't think that it's the problem.

Tomcat, Apache and mod_jk configuration
Hi there, Here is my problem. I got a working Tomcat 5.5.20 handling 4 webapps in /var/tomcat/webapps. I got a working Apache 2, configured with several virtualhosts. I managed to connect the Apache to the Tomcat using an AJP13 connector, and everything is working fine. Now, I'd like to map each one of my webapps to a different virtualhost. For instance, I'd like that my webapp example1, which is in /var/tomcat/webapps/example1, should be accessible through www.example1.com (and NOT www.example1.com/example1 - I've already that working). How do you achieve this using the jkMount directives? I've tried with jkMount /example1/* ajp13 and my webapp is accessible only through www.example1.com/example1. Thanks in advance for your answers!

Re: Tomcat, Apache and mod_jk configuration
Guillaume, In fact, I've already put the jkMount directive in the VirtualHost conf. [snip] And I'd like to have my webapp accessible through http://preprod.skyce.net/ instead of http://preprod.skyce.net/struts-dev-1/. It looks like what to have more than one webapp as the root webapp. My suggestion would be to run each webapp in a different instance of Tomcat. It's much easier than you think is it to do this. I use Tomcat 4.1.x, but I'm sure the same is possible with very few changes on 5.5.x: 1. Create a directory structure for each webapp (outside of Tomcat's installation directory) like this: struts-dev-1/ struts-dev-1/conf struts-dev-1/conf/server.xml struts-dev-1/conf/web.xml struts-dev-1/webapps struts-dev-1/logs struts-dev-1/temp ** Make sure to set your port numbers for your shutdown and connector ports to something unique among your webapps. I usually use 8x85 for the ajp13 connector port and 8x86 for the shutdown port. 2. Install your webapp to the directory struts-dev-1/webapps/struts-dev-1 3. Configure Tomcat to use struts-dev-1 as your root webapp (usually by specifying that the path is instead of /struts-dev-1). 4. Start each Tomcat instance like this: $ export JAVA_HOME=... $ export CATALINA_HOME=/path/to/full/tomcat/install $ export CATALINA_BASE=/path/to/struts-dev-1 $ export CATALINA_TMPDIR=/path/th/struts-dev-1/temp $ /path/to/full/tomcat/install/bin/startup.sh This setup allows you to have separate root webapps (or any other kind of setup). You also have the benefit (I choose to see it as a benefit) of separate JVMs and Tomcat instances. You can take one down without bothering the others.
