Just in case, have a look at its config file (/etc/libapache2-mod-jk/workers.properties). You make sure Tomcat runs the ajp connector (the "Define a Coyote/JK2 Connector" section on /etc/tomcat5/server.xml). Then you "bind" your apache fronted to your tomcat app through the proper connector through a JKMount directive, like JKMount /mywebapp ajp13 And then have a look both at the tomcat startup logs under /var/log/tomcat5/ and those from Apache under /var/log/apache2/ at startup and when trying to access your webapp through the handler. Barring this, any other error would be one the the "usual" non-distribution specific problems between apache and tomcat (mismatching configurations, problems defining valves/connectors on tomcat, etc.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
