Title: tomcat-apache?? why Jserv Module?

Dear ravi,   I'm setting up a server for development as well as testing environments. I need both to run parallelly. Problem comes when i need to have two different databases..that means two dsn's for connecting to them. I place this dsn in an ini file in the server root i.e by default the bin folder of tomcat.   Note this, i need to have one set of jsp files, set of class files(these are not common to these envs), and ofcourse ini file where i place the dsn. At startup i load some servlet classes.   What should do be done:   Have one Apache webserver which caters to both the env's using tomcat.   What i did:   Have one Apache webserver, two tomcats running in the same machine (O/S: Win'NT)   if i have two tomcats, i'll have two bin folders to place my ini files have two independent dsn's there....   Is that right?   Should i include two mod_jk.conf-auto in httpd.conf   Awaiting ur reply Lax -----Original Message----- From: Ravishankar.S [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2001 11:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: tomcat-apache?? why Jserv Module? dear lax,                     u can't use mod_jk and ModJServ at the same time!!delete the ApacheModJServ.dll file from ur modules dir( it says so in the docs).now,if u r using mod_jk forget abt the tomcat-apache.conf file.the file to look at is "mod_jk.conf-auto".this file is overwritten every time u start tomcat.try editing this file.of course the path to this file must be included in "httpd.conf".why exactly do u want to use two diff workers for????.is ur server serving a heavy load site or r u jus experimenting????.pl let me know   ravi                     ----- Original Message ----- From: Lakshminarayanan Ramakrishnan To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 12, 2001 11:27 AM Subject: RE: tomcat-apache?? why Jserv Module? Dear Ravi,   Then how to make mod_jk understand that i have two different workers at these locations...thats where i'm stuckup.   I include two different Mod_jk.conf-auto files for specifying different workers apart from tomcat-apache.conf, in httpd.conf file.   Is that right?   Lax -----Original Message----- From: Ravishankar.S [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2001 11:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: tomcat-apache?? why Jserv Module? dear lax,                 actually u don't need two diff "tomcat-apache.conf "files for multiple workers.what u can do is edit  a file called "workers.properties" (in the "conf "dir of tomcat) and read the comments  and configure it .tomcat automatically balances ur load,further i recommend u to use the ajpv13 protocol since it is faster and better than the ajpv12 protocol.this can be done in "server.xml".please read "tomcat-workers howto.html" for more info,it's  a very useful file.read it carefully and configure it accordingly   ravi
