Hi Andre, Thanks a lot for the quick response.
In my httpd.conf file I have added the below settings. ProxyPass / http://localhost:8080/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8080/ This is to connect Apache Webserver and Tomcat. In future I would add more clusters and then modify the httpd.conf file accordingly. Now because of this setting everything is being redirected to Tomcat. Even the static files are displayed from my application stack inside Tomcat Webapps. Now, if I want to just do the opposite (from what you suggested) and add exceptions for files like jpg, png, css etc in my httpd.conf file, how do I do that? Where in my Apache2.2 folder structure do I keep the static contents? Hope I was able to make my question clear. Eagerly waiting for your response.

That is the normal thing that an Apache httpd webserver does. Please > let me know about all the required configurations in detail. That infomation is available on-line : http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ I am > connecting Apache webserver and Tomcat using mod_proxy_http module. Right. So *unless you specify otherwise*, all content will be served by Apache httpd. It is only *when you explicitly specify otherwise* that Apache httpd will forward some requests to Tomcat. Sugestion : from your Apache httpd configuration, 1) start by removing anything that refers to mod_proxy_http. Once you have done that, *everything* will be served by Apache httpd (image files, css files, html pages, everything). 2) once you have succeeded in the above, /then/ re-introduce your mod_proxy_httpd-related statements, to *selectively* forward some URLs to Tomcat. Et voilà ! It reminds me a bit of the story about a sculptor, who was aked how he sculpted a horse from a big block of stone. He answered that it was very easy : you just remove from the stone everything that is not a horse.
