It seems like you're going through a lot of unnecessary work & headaches to put httpd in front of Tomcat; if you don't have some other pressing need, why not just run Tomcat standalone? It handles SSL quite nicely. > Another constraint is that I want the web site to > be accessible by just its hostname and domain (e.g. > https://www.resourcepoint.org) and I don't want to > require a servlet context path to be typed as part > of the URL every time one accesses the site.

You laboring under a misconception - the only ROOT application in Tomcat is its default welcome page; manager, admin, the examples, etc., are all deployed as independent applications and are still available even if ROOT has been replaced. > Therefore, I decided to have a second virtual host on > the Tomcat side. You're going through a lot (a whole lot) more work than you need to. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
