Klaus, Was there a reason you did not use the preconfigured Java 1.4, Tomcat 5.0.19 and JK connectors that come with SuSE Pro 9.1? These are listed under the SuSE YAST "Install Software" panel. Just select RPM groups Productivity->Networking->Web->FrontEnds.
The SuSE prepared README (/usr/share/doc/packages/jakarta-tomcat/README.SuSE) gives a great explanation of how to configure Apache and Tomcat. This is a bit different than just just expanding the archives, but you get the following benefits: 1) Tomcat is integrated into the Linux file structure (i.e. config files are under /etc/apache2, /etc/sysconfig/j2ee, etc; shared files are under /usr/share/tomcat, doc is under /usr/share/doc/packages/jakarta-tomcat,...) 2) Tomcat is installed as a daemon that can be stopped/started/restarted with rctomcat. 3) SuSE does provide security patches for their packages also that can be automatically applied with their Online Update utility.

And if he or she does not answer straight away to some mails, the others will be dumped in a bin and ... lost. And nobody answered by mails since days... Thanks for your reply. I have aquired a dedicated server with Suse 9.1 preconfigured. It came with Apache 2.0.48, which is working well. I installed - JDK 1.4 - Tomcat 5.0.28 - The latest binary package from mod_JK2 Apache and Tomcat are working well individually. The logs are showing, that Tomcat accepts mod_JK2 well and is prepared to communicate on port 8009. It also creates the /conf/auto/mod_jk.conf, which I show later in this text. Apache is not showing anything in the log. It just states that it did not find the document in its normal public_html space, when I try to call a JSP page. But, I havn't modified the log-level (by the way, where can I do that??). There are soooooo many how-to's which are all doing different things. I tried to find the essence from several. I must say at this point: I hate to compile packages when I can use binaries. So, I did not follow how-to's which asked me to do that. All other infos are given below. Can you do something with this info? Thanks for any help or hint! Klaus Parsons Technical Services schrieb: > There are plenty. You have to be patient. And yes you can get lost.
