Connecting tomcat6 to apache2
- by StudentKen
Disclaimier: Not a server admin
I've been scratching my head over this for weeks now (not consistently mind you, as that would be maddening). I've been trying to connect my apache2 server to my tomcat server to the point where if someone encounters *.jsp or any servelet in navigating my web directory, it's handed over to tomcat.
I have both Apache2.0 (port 9099) and Tomcat6 (9089) running on Debian lenny on the same box.
Currently, mod_jk is enabled with mod_jk.conf in $apacheHOME/mods-enabled/ with content:
# Where to find workers.properties
JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/workers.properties
# Where to put jk shared memory
JkShmFile /var/log/at_jk/mod_jk.shm
# Where to put jk logs
JkLogFile /var/log/at_jk/mod_jk.log
# Set the jk log level [debug/error/info]
JkLogLevel info
# Select the timestamp log format
JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] "
# Send servlet for context /examples to worker named worker1
JkMount /*/servlet/* worker1
# Send JSPs for context /examples to worker named worker1
JkMount /*.jsp worker1
my workers.properties located in $apacheHOME/ with content:
workers.tomcat_home=/var/lib/tomcat6
workers.java_home=/usr/lib/jdk1.6.0_23/db/
worker.list=worker1
ps=/
worker.worker1.port=9071
worker.worker1.host=localhost
worker.worker1.type=ajp13
my web.xml in $tomcatHOME/conf has the following servlets enabled
<servlet>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet</servlet-cla$
<init-param>
<param-name>debug</param-name>
<param-value>0</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>listings</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>fork</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>xpoweredBy</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
From what I can tell, there's no funny buisness as both the apache2, tomcat, and mod_jk logs show green; yet whenever I navigate to a jsp, it simply displays the javascript.
I'm unsure what the problem is exactly despite pouring over the logs and documentation for aid. I'm quite a greenhorn in the servelet world.
