Apache Web Server connect to Tomcat

Hi,

Complete instructions are available at
tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/index.html">http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/index.html

Here's a (minimal) configuration example.
It dispatches all requests for the 'examples' context
to Tomcat.
My setup is Apache 1.3.x/Tomcat 4.0.x on RH7.2. The
example should also be valid for your setup.

1. In httpd.conf, tell Apache to load the module:
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so

2. In httpd.conf, configure mod_jk:
JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel info
JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:$S %Y] "
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T"
JkMount /examples/* worker1

3. Configure workers for mod_jk in
/etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties

worker.list=worker1
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
worker.worker1.host=127.0.0.1
worker.worker1.port=9009
worker.worker1.lbfactor=1
worker.worker1.local_worker=1

4. In server.xml, configure Tomcat to talk to mod_jk:
<Service name="Tomcat-Standalone">
   <!-- this is the HTTP connector which was configured
        in the server.xml that came with Tomcat
   -->
  <Connector className="org.apache.catalina........ />

  <!-- This makes Tomcat talk to mod_jk -->
  <Connector className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.Ajp13Connector"
             port="9009"
             address="127.0.0.1" />

  <Engine........

If you don't want to access Tomcat directly via HTTP, you
can comment out the entry for the HttpConnector.

After a restart of Tomcat and Apache, Apache should
dispatch requests for the 'examples' context to Tomcat.

R.K

Is our web application reside in the $TOMCAT_HOME/webapp or in $APACHE_HOME?

Refer to your tomcat connector setting,

Is the port 9009 a Apache port?
address = 127.0.0.1  <=== Let's say i want to install apache web server on my pc, the address is my PC address, isn't it?
