Hi,
It was as I expected and a virtual server was 'eating' my requests. The
JkMount was actually already set up in the global server, but by adding
the line JkMountCopy All it got forwarded to all the virtualhosts as
well. Since this is only a temporary problem for us, it will have to do...
Greetings

Hi,
I have the most peculiar problem (at least in my point of view) with
forwarding with jkmount. JkMount has always worked on my server, but
suddenly, without changing anything but the mod_jk settings (adding a
new jkmount and some rewriterules), JkMount suddenly only works if I
connect to my server from localhost and not from any other location.
I can't post the entire configuration of the server here, only the
section of mod_jk which you can find below.
Is there anybody that could give me a hint on where I might start
looking for the problem? What I suspect myself is that there might be
some virtualhost or directory that eats the incoming external request
so that I never get to the mod_jk section. And that it doesn't do
this when I connect from localhost. But it beats me why it would do
that.
I actually didn't read your config, but the description reminds me of
a problem I had to analyze a few weeks ago. Customer had a SuSE linux
system, which included an entry into /etc/hosts like
127.0.0.2 myserver
and myserver was the name of the machine.
Now if you configure a virtual host myserver:80 in your httpd
configuration, what will happen?
When httpd starts, it will resolve myserver, and by the usual
configuration, /etc/hosts will come first and resolve into 127.0.0.2.
So requests will be mapped to this vhost, if they actually talk to
127.0.0.2.
Clients connection from local to myserver:80 will also resolve the
name into 127.0.0.2, and thus the request will be successfully mapped
by httpd to the vhost.
Clients connecting from remote, will find myserver in DNS etc. and
resolve the official address. Even if httpd listens to it, it will not
associate the request with the myserver vhost.
Check your /etc/hosts, if there is a nonsense entry for the name of
your server in there. Also check your /etc/nsswitch.conf (assuming
it's *nix), and go through those name services, checking for your
server entries in them.
If you are not allowed to control/fix those name services, you can put
the JkMount into the global server and JkMountCopy On into each vhost,
which is suspect to catch the request. That might not be what you
want, though.

P.S.: If you want to debug, which virtual server (or even the global
server) catches a request, configure a different access log for each
vhost and the global server. That way you can easily find out, which
vhost handles your request.
The error that I get from the apache logs is :
[Mon Jan 14 15:30:06 2008] [error] [client 10.33.132.252] File does
not exist: /volume1/www/htdocs/esat/jsp-examples
which makes me thing that the section in the configuration that is
'eating' my requests has a document base of
/volume1/www/htdocs/esat/, but I am not sure if that is a right
presumption.
Greetings,
Edwin
