I've quickly read the howto and I'm not sure that I agree with everything! I haven't defined a virtual host in httpd.conf and everything works fine. The author also makes this curious statement:
<!-- Replace "localhost" with what your Apache "ServerName" is set to --> <!-- ##### This line changed. name=set to correct host name. #####--> <Engine className= "org.apache.catalina.connector.warp.WarpEngine" name="apache.nandgate.com" debug="0" appBase="webapps"> I didn't think that it mattered what the "name" was set to. As I understand it, the default server.xml file lacks a <host> inside the <engine> for the Tomcat-Apache service - it should have a host. The "Replace "localhost" with what your Apache "ServerName" is set to" refers to this, doesn't it? I.e. Replace "localhost" with what your Apache "ServerName" is set to --> - <Engine className="org.apache.catalina.connector.warp.WarpEngine" name="Apache" defaultHost="whatever ServerName is set to in httpd.conf" debug="0" appBase="webapps"> The howto has caused me to question my understanding rather than provide any clarification! The author is right when he says that the documentation is patchy and the TC-Apache integration process is more complex than it ought to be.

Kevin Passey -- -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Passey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 06 February 2002 11:39 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: TOMCAT 4.X - mod_jk Hi, I am somewhat confused.. I have TOMCAT 4 running quite happily on my Linux (SuSE 7.3) server - no problem. I also have the apache 1.3 distribution with my 7.3 running - no problem. What I want to do is run TOMCAT as an apache plugin so that Apache is serving my static pages and TOMCAT is doing the cool stuff. The question is - do I have to use TOMCAT 3.3 as I cannot see a mod_jk version for 4.x - or have I missed something?
