Simple Apache 2 Tomcat 5 Integration with Debian 3.1

[fernandoch]

1) In http://host:8080/ can you try executing the examples? And do they work?

2) Can you post your /etc/apache2/workers.properties

3) The fifteen last lines of your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

[leorulez]

1) In http://host:8080/ both jsp examples and servlet examples are working

2) workers.properties file.. I have already posted this before. Let me post it again

workers.tomcat_home=/usr/local/tomcat/
workers.java_home=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06/
ps=/
worker.list=worker1
worker.default.port=8009
worker.default.host=hostname
worker.default.type=ajp13
worker.default.lbfactor=1

I replaced hostname with the real hostname (eg. abc.edu)

3) The fifteen last lines of your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

I assume this is httpd.conf
But the last 15 lines are related to section 3: virtual hosts. I am posting the last few lines from Section 2: Main server configuration

JkWorkersFile "/etc/httpd/workers.properties"
JkLogFile "/etc/httpd/logs/mod_jk.log"
JkLogLevel info
JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y]"
# JkOptions indicate to send SSL KEY SIZE,
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
# JkRequestLogFormat set the request format
JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T"
# Send servlet for context / jsp-examples to worker named worker1
JkMount /jsp-examples worker1
# Send JSPs for context /jsp-examples/* to worker named worker1
JkMount /jsp-examples/* worker1


Thanks

If you followed the manual line by line you would see that in 2) the first two lines differ.

workers.tomcat_home=/usr/local/tomcat/
workers.java_home=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06/

should be replaced by:

workers.tomcat_home=/usr/lib/apache-tomcat
workers.java_home=/usr/lib/jdk

And in 3) I cannot see that you load the jk_module

LoadModule jk_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so

Try to take some time and check again the manual line by line copying and pasting the commands and if it does not work then get back here.

And since you are using httpd.conf this means you are not using Debian 3.1 so it might be a problem with your distro. In Debian we use apache2.conf for the configuration file.

I had

workers.tomcat_home=/usr/local/tomcat/
workers.java_home=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_06/

because these are the actual locations for tomcat and java in my server. Is it necessary to change those lines to the ones you specified?.

In 3) I have the load module:

LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so

in httpd.conf along with the other LoadModules.

And yes I am not using Debian but I thought this manual would work for RedHat too. Thanks for your help.

[fernandoch]

I am sorry leorulez but I haven´t had the time to play with RH.

Maybe this manual could help you a bit more:

Have you ever tried Debian

[leorulez]

Thanks..but I have tried that procedure already. I have'nt tried Debian..did'nt want to mess around with the server which already has RedHat

Step 6
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs2

Step 7
Now build the mod_jk with the following:
make

I ran Step 6 fine but I get the following error on Step7

make
bash: make: command not found

I followed your tutorial right to the word ... so I must be missing something ...

Any help/assistance will be much appreciated! Thanks!

a base install of any OS is likely not going to include 'make'. You might need to do the following:

apt-get install make

On another note, I have actually written a similar Howto that you all may wish to cross reference:

http://5dollarwhitebox.org/wiki/inde...at_with_Mod_JK


I am waiting to get 'whitelisted' by one of the guys to that I can add the Howto here. Though this here article by fernandoch, it never hurts to read a couple different Howto's to get as much info as possible.

How do you mean that? Once you have a user account on HowetoForge (as you do), you can post tutorials. Have a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/add_howto

What is your reason for commenting out php types?

I uncommented them after completing the guide (great and easy guide by the way), and i don't see any problems yet.
