It is done through server.xml. I don't know what web server connector you were using, but if it was Apache and mod_jk, you can still use it.
On Tomcat's side, comment out the Coyote connector, which looks like: <Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector" port="8009" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="0" useURIValidationHack="false" protocolHandlerClassName="org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandler"/> Instead, use: <Connector className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.Ajp13Connector" port="8009" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" acceptCount="10" debug="0"/> The problem is that this connector is deprecated and probably will give you an MBean exception. If you want to just verify the problem, you can try it out on an older but still functional HTTP connector. Comment out the connector that looks like: <Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector" port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100" debug="0" connectionTimeout="20000" useURIValidationHack="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" /> And uncomment the one that looks like: <Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector" port="8083" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="10" debug="0" /> You might want to change the port to 8080 and/or change some of the tuning parameters, max and minProcessors to be the same as they were on your other connector. If you form parameters are preserved, then you know that it is the same issue.

For configuration and some implementation, I am still a newbie here. How do you change the connector to a non-Coyote one? Which one would you recomend? Where can I find it?
