Title: RE: Adding modules

It doesn't, and architecturally why should it? You put handlers in the Apache conf to say
OK, if I encounter this file type invoke this handler, (which is a module which is either
statically or dynamically linked into the httpd/apache.exe executable). So for jsp/tomcat, we
tell apache that mod_jk or mod_jserv will handle the request, they then talk to the Tomcat server via sockets.
So theoretically Tomcat from Apache's perspective can be thought of as nothing more than a module.

Hope this helps,

James

I don't get it, adding Tomcat to Apache shouldn't disable this feature....

It's not a relational DB but an XML one. Configuring Apache in the right way
(that is, loading the module) allows my application to query the DB via http
in the way:

http://hostname:port/databaseType/databaseName?_query

This would return an XML document. My question is if it is possible to tell
Tomcat to manage this kind of requests with the appropriate module and
without running Apache.

Thanks
