http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/ajp.html In fact, the http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/index.html page is a good place to go for a lot of things. I generally find tomcat documentation hard to read and hard to understand (I find httpd.conf much more to my taste), but it's generally possible to get there in the end, and better than following half-baked how-tos. The server.xml that ships with tomcat has an ajp connector by default, I think. By the way, I had a very similar battle getting mod_jk going, except that once I found that mod_proxy_ajp only worked in a version of apache I wasn't using, and that mod_jk2 was obsolete (whereas mod_jk wasn't), and I made the choice of mod_jk, setting it up wasn't actually too bad. However, I've found that a large POST to a web page through mod_jk can get mangled (and the mod_jk debug log simply doesn't show chunks of it), whereas direct to tomcat works fine. So I slightly mistrust ajp. There's not much documentation on the protocol, and what exists suggests that not very many people in the world really know what's going on with it.
