Hi, We are trying to use Tomcat with Apache. We need to run multiple copies of an application so we are trying to configure multiple instances of Tomcat working with the Apache server configured for as many virtual hosts. Basically an application instance gets its own JVM (due to its own Tomcat instance) and Apache server forwards the requests to respective Tomcat instances based on the virtual host name.
This seems to work well with Jserv but we are having a problem getting the same to work with Tomcat. The problem we are facing is where to specify what port will be used by a Tomcat instance. The APJServMount directive (for JServ) used to take the port number on which the respective Tomcat instance will be listening but JkMount (used for Tomcat) does not seem to be taking such a parameter. We understand that for each Tomcat instance we need to have a separate server.xml file where we can specify the port number where this Tomcat instance will listen on but it seems the Apache server doesn't know to which port it should forward the requests for a virtual host. Also, we are not sure if we need to use the Host directive in the server.xml file. It appears that this directive is required when we want to host multiple virtual hosts on the same Tomcat instance. In our case each virtual host gets its own instance so this directive may not be required. If any of you have come across this sort of problem, any help will be greatly appreciated.
