There are a number of advantages to using Apache httpd + mod_jk instead of just Tomcat standalone. Here are a few I can think of: 1. mod_jk provides load-balancing across multiple Tomcat instances 2. mod_jk allows you to have a single web server instance and multiple (non-clustered) Tomcat instances serving different apps or even running as different users, etc. 3. Apache httpd includes a /lot/ of modules for authentication, data massaging, etc. that can be used on top of servlet code (think mod_rewrite) There are very few tasks for which Apache httpd is /required/. Maybe if you tell us what you'd like to do, we can help you configure it in Tomcat. Just remember that Tomcat was written to deploy applications, not to serve files (though it does that just fine, too). > It will be more easy to [configure tomcat for virtual directories]?, > because I wanna have in other directory my [own] examples and until > now I can't [do] that. I'm having trouble understanding what you're asking: you want to have several virtual directories? You can do that with just Tomcat... it just takes a bit of work to do. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknadrYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDeyQCeKmvIe/PCN4xVo6RcanQHrlw+ AY0AoKoScVuourkKk6wgK2ivwL+JypyZ =hW1J -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
