Dhaval,

Yes - I just checked. The only Linux binaries are for SLES9 - where were
they when I needed them? And you really do want the most recent version - it
includes the "/JkStatus" control panel for quiescing and adjusting load
balancing. 

If you will take a bit of time I believe I (and others) can walk you through
the compile of the connector sources. Its really pretty easy.

Here's what I did (assumes you are in a bash shell). 

1) I downloaded this:
 
http://mirrors.playboy.com/apache/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/source/jk-1.2.
14/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-1.2.14.1-src.tar.gz

2) Then expanded in /opt so I ended up with
/opt/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-1.2.14.1-src - but any location should be
fine.

3) Change you working directory to
/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-1.2.14.1-src/jk and read the BUILD.txt
   It reads:
     ...
     For the impatient Apache admins:
     $> cd native
     $> ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs (or where ever the apxs/apxs2
is)
     $> make
     $> su -c 'make install'
   but also points you at:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/connectors-doc/howto/apache.html

As I remember the simple instructions did not work completely - I believe
the problem was (in my case) with SLES9 not having the correct "apxs"
(Apache Portable Runtime??) version. But I was able to solve that problem
pretty easily  - sorry, cannot remember how, it was three months ago :(.

Try the simple steps above and report back. One of us should be able to step
you through this.

Hope this helps.

 - Richard

Linux 10.0

Richard,

Thank you so much for your quick response. 

I forgot to mention I am using 32 bit architecture. I have AMD Athlon XP
2000+ with SuSE 10 and Windows XP dual boot. 

I tried to compile the binaries but could not able to compile it. I found
the document from http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/howto/apache.html
but it does not have compilation intruction for linux. Can you able to
provide me some instructions? I know it's little off topic to this forum but
since you have already done it, it would be easy for you to guide me.

Based upon your email, I reliazed that the .so that I used is for SuSE Liux
Enterprise Server 9 (SLES) and that too for 64bit. Do jakarta have binary
for 32 bit linux? I know they have nice .so files for Win32 and OSX. ( :( )

Thanks again.

Regards,
Dhaval
