Greetings, I'm a newbie trying my hand at setting up a local PHP and Java development environment. I use a laptop with Windows XP SP3.
Both service are running fine locally, after install. I will describe what I did as I followed the procedure to have mod_jk handle the communication between them (from http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/apache.html). I got the binary for Windows (mod_jk-1.2.28-httpd-2.2.3.so). Then I created a workers.properties file which I placed in a folder I created at $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/jk; the file content is: worker.list=worker1 worker.worker1.type=ajp13 worker.worker1.host=localhost worker.worker1.port=8009 I copied the file mod_jk-1.2.28-httpd-2.2.3.so to $HTTPD_HOME/modules and renamed it mod_jk.so. It was suggested at this point to also modify Apache's httpd.conf file. I imagine that meant to add a line to have the module loaded by Apache (I added "LoadModule mod_jk modules/mod_jk.so"). Doing this, however, leads to an intriguing message if you try to test the configuration: "Can't locate API module structure 'mod_jk' in file $HTTPD_HOME/modules/mod_jk.so: No error." Is it an error or not, I'm not sure, but since I'm not done with the procedure, I keep going. I then went through the steps to use Tomcat to auto-configure. So I've added the line "Include $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/jk/mod_jk.conf-auto" to the file $HTTPD_HOME/conf/httpd.conf. I also added the listener by way of the line "<Listener className="org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig" modJk="/path/to/mod_jk.so" />" in the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml. Then I re-started Tomcat to generate mod_jk.conf-auto: it is of note to specify that the name of the file is "mod_jk.conf" and not "mod_jk.conf-auto". Finally, I modified the Apache webserver configuration file $HTTPD_HOME/conf/httpd.conf to include the simple configuration example. The end result being a failure to start the Apache 2.2 server: testing the configuration reveals the same error listed above: "Can't locate API module structure 'mod_jk' in file $HTTPD_HOME/modules/mod_jk.so: No error." Please, I've spent hours getting to this point, but I have no idea how to get around this error. Thank you, François
