Your first message said you had "Apache configured to handle html and php files", which really sounds suspicious, as it should delegate everything to jk. Did you have a look at this page on the wiki?

Well, the point to using mod_jk is make things more efficient by having Apache http handle html. Tomcat will do the job, just not as quickly. Also, Tomcat doesn't do PHP. However, I'm using the jkMount directive to determine which server handles what, if that's what you're referring to.


Interesting, so that means you want to serve some content from plain html files on your filesystem, and some other from Magnolia, for the same site... You'll probably want to change the defaultExtension property, then, which is by default set to .html, thus having Magnolia generating ".html" links by default.

One down, database connectivity to go. And just maybe I'll take a deeper look at my connector settings. There's nothing wrong with them, per say, there are no more errors in the logs (maybe a good reason for this happenstance), but maybe I can tweak them to give my server setup greater dexterity.

If you're starting from scratch, just edit WEB-INF/config/default/ magnolia.properties, and change the "magnolia.repositories.jackrabbit.config" property from "WEB-INF/ config/repo-conf/jackrabbit-derby-search.xml" to "WEB-INF/config/ repo-conf/jackrabbit-mysql-search.xml", before the first start of Magnolia. If not and you don't care about your current content, just drop the repositories directory, change the property and restart.

All my content is currently in my JSP-based site, so I don't have any content yet in the Magnolia install (the goal was to find a Java-based CMS which would allow me to use my JSP files as a template with just a little configuring, and I think I've now found just that). I figured I had to edit the properties file for the mysql dependency after looking around the file structure and examining individual files, but had no clue about the repositories directory, so a definite thanks for that.

Glad i helped :)
