WebAppConnection forms the communications channel between Tomcat and Apache, so only use it once in your httpd.conf file unless you have more than one Tomcat running.
WebAppDeploy is the line that matches URL's to specific tomcat contexts. Use it for each application and have them all use the same connection. It's all described briefly, but effectively in the INSTALL.TXT file that comes with mod_webapp (the CVS source at least). --David Smith On Wednesday 26 September 2001 03:01 pm, you wrote: > red hat linux 7.1, apache 1.3.20 with mod_webapp, jakarta-tomcat 4.0 > > the tomcat-apache connection for /examples works with the following setting > in httpd.conf: WebAppConnection conn warp myhostname:8008 > WebAppDeploy examples conn /examples > > now, i have another application /jsp that currently works as standalone, > i.e., http://myhostname:8080/jsp. > > how do i set it up such that it also goes through apache? i tried defining > another Apache-Connector service in server.xml with port 8009 then placed > another couple of lines in httpd.conf as follows: > > WebAppConnection conn2 warp myhostname:8009 > WebAppDeploy jsp conn2 /jsp > > and restarted the servers. was just guessing so i was not surprised that > it did not work. the errors in the apache log in tomcat say that there are > errors in initializing naming contexts for /examples and /jsp so that the > context startup failed. the error on the browser when accessing > http://myhostname/examples/ is "the requested resource(/examples/) is not > found," which makes sense. and the standalone tomcat, e.g., > http://myhostname:8080/examples still worked. > > question: how should i set up tomcat and apache to serve more than one app? > thanks, > --meg > > > > __________________________________________________________________ > Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas. > Experience the convenience of buying online with Shop@Netscape! > http://shopnow.netscape.com/ > > Get your own FREE, personal Netscape Mail account today at > http://webmail.netscape.com/
