More than half my post below was about Tomcat, with suggestions on how you can solve your problem. The other problem may not have been *exactly* the same as yours, but it was *very close*, close enough that I'd strongly suspect that what worked there (as well as some of the other comments/suggestions in that thread) will give you a lot of useful information in coming up with a solution to yours. You can't expect to have a solution handed to you on a silver platter, you may need to take the suggestions and play around with them, try some variations. Yes, I know it can be frustrating, but sometimes that's what you have to do. Yes, Tomcat's documentation is not perfect, especially when it comes to connecting Tomcat to Apache -- lots of people have complained about it, including me -- but it is a volunteer project, and documentation is often the lowest priority. > - Original Message ----- > From: "Milt Epstein" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2002 3:56 PM > Subject: Re: Can't get tomcat 4 to work with mod_jk and Apache > > > > On Tue, 20 Aug 2002, Scott Adamson wrote: > > > > > I have been trying for the last week to get Apache + mod_jk + Tomcat > > > 4 to work.
