Well, there's always http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/apache.html but if that's too complex, there's this (off the top of my head): Once Tomcat and Apache are installed and working independently of each other, connecting them is simple: 1. If you are using Apache 2.2 or later, you can choose between mod_jk (a separate download) and mod_proxy_ajp (ships with Apache 2.2). If you choose mod_proxy_ajp: 1. read http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html, get frustrated because there's no mention of AJP13 in there, and then, on a whim, just try: ProxyPass /myapp ajp13://localhost:8009/myapp PRoxyPassReverse /myapp ajp13://localhost:8009/myapp I'm not sure if you need the "reverse" line. I gave up on mod_proxy_ajp because I had a configuration I felt was too complex to express using it's capabilities, and I opted for mod_jk. If you choose mod_jk: 1. Download mod_jk from http://tomcat.apache.org/download-connectors.cgi, compile it per the instructions in the BUILDINGN file included, and install it into your Apache installation (easy: one .so file goes alongside all the others). Don't forget to enable it in Apache using: LoadModule jk_module /path/to/mod_jk-x.y.z.so 2. Enable the AJP connector in Tomcat's server.xml. Usually, it's the one that comes by default as 8009, and I believe it is enabled by default through Tomcat 5.5 and perhaps later. 3. Set up a workers.properties file according to http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/workers.html A simple workers.properties file might be: workers.list=myOnlyWorker myOnlyWorker.type=ajp13 myOnlyWorker.host=localhost myOnlyWorker.port=8009 Enable this in your Apache configuration using this line: JkWorkersFile /path/to/workers.properties 4. Start with a simple configuration in your Apache config like: JkMount /myapp/* myOnlyWorker mod_jk supports /much/ more complex configuration. You should definitely read http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html Reload the Apache configuration and you should be ready to go. > I want to add Fedora DS, Eclipse, and JBoss to my environment - AFTER I > get my original question solved. When you switch to JBoss, you'll technically be switching away from Tomcat. Since JBoss uses Tomcat internally, everything should work on the Apache side with no changes. You may need to poke around in the JBoss configuration to accomplish the same things I outlined above, but it shouldn't be too bad. I hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHZcRp9CaO5/Lv0PARAg2jAJsGA5CizW3epbNqVdkYHHhYyPpAkwCgrciH kylAb0XqIRNnAyfZuXebblI= =4/HP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
