OK - it definitely is working now, the link below seemed to be
describing my problem to a tee - i had the jpackage mod_jk2 rpm.
http://cymulacrum.net/writings/tomcat5/a1204.html
Done exactly the same setup on a live server with a compiled mod_jk2 and
it works as expected (tested with quite a few virtual hosts).
Yang: apparently not, I have the following virtual setup...notice the
appbase and context in server.xml just points to the apache
documentroot, if apache sees a .jsp it palms off the request to tomcat
where it finds the same file and compiles it on the fly.
for apache (httpd.conf):
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName SOME.HOST.NAME
DirectoryIndex index.html
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/beta"
<Location "/*.jsp">
JkUriSet worker ajp13:localhost:8009
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
and tomcat (server.xml):
<Host name="SOME.HOST.NAME" debug="0"
appBase="/var/www/html/beta"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
<Context path="" docBase="/var/www/html/beta" debug="1"/>
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
directory="logs" prefix="cust2_log." suffix=".txt"
pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>
</Host>
