well my mod_jk.so lies in /usr/lib/apache/1.3/ The default directory in tomcat's config is libexec/mod_jk.so. Obviously that is wrong. That for I checked (as You suggested) my tomcat version w/ dpkg -l tomcat. Says exactly the same: Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii tomcat 3.2.3-4 Java Servlet 2.2 engine with JSP 1.1 support now I put <ApacheConfig modjk="/usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_jk.so" /> in my /usr/share/tomcat/conf/server.xml as suggested in the tomcat documentation, somewhere in between <ContextManager ...> ... </ContextManager> Then I launch tomcat w/ /etc/init.d/tomacat start. When It now comes to starting apache w/ /etc/init.d/apache-ssl start it says: Starting web server: apache-ssl. Syntax error on line 8 of /usr/share/tomcat/conf/mod_jk.conf-auto: Cannot load /etc/apache-ssl/libexec/mod_jk.so into server: /etc/apache-ssl/libexec/mod_jk.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /usr/sbin/apache-sslctl start: httpsd could not be started The link to /var/lib/tomcat/conf/mod_jk.conf-auto is there. When I modify that file by replacing libexec/mod_jk.so by /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_jk.so Apache starts up w/out Problems and everything is fine ... ... until I restart tomcat. Any idea what I still might have done wrong? thx in advance Soeren
