If you use mod_jk, then Apache only knows of the AJP port on Tomcat and communicates using the AJP protocol.
If you use mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http then you can configure Apache to use HTTP and drop the mod_jk module. http://markmail.org/search/?q=mod_proxy+mod_jk+list%3Aorg.apache.httpd.users#query:mod_proxy%20mod_jk%20list%3Aorg.apache.tomcat.users+page:1+state:facets http://markmail.org/search/?q=mod_proxy+mod_jk+list%3Aorg.apache.httpd.users#query:mod_proxy%20mod_jk%20list%3Aorg.apache.httpd.users+page:1+state:facets -----Original Message----- From: breako [mailto:alex.stave...@fineos.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 04, 2009 1:23 PM To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: [us...@httpd] AJP Ports Mod_JK Hi, This is a conceptual question. I am using the Mod_JK to set up Apache to talk to Tomact. As per instructions, I put the AJP port of my tomcat in the workers.properties file for my apache. So my Apache only knows the tomcat AJP port, it does not know about Tomcat HTTP port. Or does it? Does anyone know if the Apache communicates ever with the Tomcat HTTP Port? Or does it only ever communicate with the AJP port? Can you configure apache to just use Tomcat Http port directly? What would be the advantage / disadvantage? Many thanks. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/AJP-Ports-Mod_JK-tp26201900p26201900.html Sent from the Apache HTTP Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
