Subject: RE: Tomcat 4.0.1 and Apache 1.3.22 on NT 4.0 Server:
Install/Config
Thanks for your reply, Rosh.
Further Questions:
(1) If both Apache and Tomcat are both running and both configured to
port 80, which
will handle a request? Will Apache process html requests and Tomcat
process jsp
requests?
First you cannot have two services listening on the same port (unless you
have virtual hosts set up). By default Apache listens on port 80 and Tomcat
on port 8080. And by default Apache serves static files like .html, .js,
etc. Tomcat generates the dynamic content such as servlets and jsps
(2) I have Apache configured to return a custom page for 404 Error
responses. If an
unknown jsp request is submitted and Tomcat tries to process it, will
Tomcat then refer
processing back to Apache to report the 404 Error?
If you have configured Apache+Tomcat, then Apache forwards (dynamic)
requests to Tomcat. Once Tomcat has processed the request, it returns the
output to Apache who serves it back to the client who requested it in the
first place. Think of Apache as a proxy in this case. You should configure
Tomcat to throw a custom 404 Error page back. The web.xml file has the
details.
(3) The O'Reilly page, "Installing and Configuring Tomcat"
(http://www.onjava.com/lpt/a//onjava/2001/03/29/tomcat.html)
is for "installing Tomcat as a stand-alone server". How is the
installation/configuration
different for running Tomcat WITH Apache?
You would need some sort of cofiguration where Apache forwards requests to
Tomcat. The only different b/w running Tomcat standalone and Apache+Tomcat
is a module that will forward enable Apache to forward requests to Tomcat.
mod_webapp serves this purpose in case of Tomcat 4.0.x. mod_jk for Tomcat
3.x.x
(4) The Jyve FAQ instructions (mentioned in previous email below) says
to install
ApacheModuleJserv.dll in "d:\apache_root\modules\" (substituting drive
letter, etc.,
appropriately). Is this also needed with the Apache/Tomcat 4.0.1
install?
Use mod_webapp or mod_jk
Thanks again for any help provided!
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
RS

I installed Tomcat as a service too (there is an option when
installing). In you Tomcat server.xml file (found in the conf dir) you
must change the http port to 80 instead of 8080. Now Tomcat will handle
the JSP.

Question:
How to install / configure Apache and Tomcat 4.0.1 on NT 4.0 Server so
that
both will be started at bootup and so Apache will defer appropriate
requests (e.g., jsp) to Tomcat automatically?
What I've done so far:
Running NT 4.0 Server SP 6a. Have installed Apache Web Server 1.3.22
(port 80)
as a service, which runs successfully. Have installed Java 2 SDK v
1.3.1_02.
Have also downloaded and expanded Tomcat 4.0.1 per instructions. Have
set
JAVA_HOME, TOMCAT_HOME, and CATALINA_HOME on NT 4.0 Server per
instructions.
Where I've looked so far:
The closest instructions I've found as to what I'm doing are at
<
http://nagoya.apache.org:8080/jyve-faq/Turbine/screen/MainMenu/question_id/693/topic_id/102/screen/DisplayQuestionAnswer/faq_id/12/project_id/2/action/SetAll
>
,
which is a Jyve FAQ - "Installing Jakarta-Tomcat on Windows NT Server".
But it
addresses the process using Apache 3.1.12 and Tomcat 3.1, and the online
documentation for Tomcat 4.0.1 says that 4.0 is significantly different
than
3.x.
Thanks in advance for your help!
