Hi John, As it turns out, what got me unstuck was to add a Host and Context to server.xml, as you and Lajos both recommended to me.
But it seems I can use NameVirtualHost * <VirtualHost *> ... </VirtualHost> or NameVirtualHost 127.0.0.1 <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1> .... </VirtualHost> To be honest, I still don't really understand the difference between the two. I am hoping to access http://oecon-stprg from the network, so perhaps I will have to remap my /etc/hosts file to my real IP address, in whic h case I will have to change my VirtualHost and NameVirtualHost stuff. In any case, it works now and your advice was helpful. Here is another article which also helped. It contains some stuff on VirtualHost configuration: http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2003/06/25/tomcat_tips.html Best, Heather Buch On Fri, 27 Jun 2003 09:22:52 -0400, John Turner wrote > If you want multiple name-based virtual hosts with JK, I have found > that you need to do the following: > > - make sure NameVirtualHost is enabled and set to "*" > > - make sure all VirtualHost containers look like this: > > <VirtualHost *> > ServerName your.host.name > ... > JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 > </VirtualHost> > > - make sure that every possible value of ServerName is also defined > in server.xml either as a Host or an Alias to a Host. > > You're getting the default web-app because Tomcat doesn't have a > virtual host defined for "127.0.0.1", nor should it (technically) as > virtual hosts are typically name-based.
