Sorry, should have posted this... When I type in http://localhost/examples/servlets/ I now get a Forbidden message saying that I do not have permission to access /examples/servlets/index.html. This message is coming from my Apache at mydomain.com Port 80.
I feel like I may be getting close, but why this? I believe Tomcat is still listening on port 8080 - does that have to be changed? Since I get this error message, I am assuming that I am getting to the files (indicating that mod_jk may possibly be working) but the files cannot be served. Permission issue in httpd.conf file or somewhere in server.xml?? Any thoughts?

[getting desperate] Jerry, I noticed previous to your last email regarding the problem you are having, that even though the JSP's and servlets would not work, you were able to browse the HTML files via http://localhost/examples/servlets ... I was unable to do even that. Do you also place your HTML files in your webapp directory as Paul just stated he does? If so, then how would Apache serve the static pages?? Is that through using Justin's suggestion of placing the following in my httpd.conf file? # Static files in the examples webapp are served by apache JkAutoAlias /var/tomcat4/webapps/dev.jscs-inc.com If you are storing your HTML files outside of Tomcat, then something is right in your setup that is connected the two. And that something could be what I am doing wrong... I'd appreciate it if you can possibly compare setups with me to see if I am missing anything. Thanks!

[getting desperate] Denise: You shouldn't have to open up port 8009 to the ouside world; that's for internal communication between Tomcat and Apache. Users outside the firewall still come in through port 80. Jerry Denise Mangano wrote: >Hi all :) > >So this is where I stand.
