When you request a URL such as this from Tomcat :
(http://hostname)/ABC/DEF/hij.jsp
Tomcat uses the first component of the path (/ABC) as mapping for the
"web application".
It then passes the request to the application "ABC".
Not strictly correct.
Tomcat compares the URL to the list of context paths and the longest
match wins.
In the example above the context path may be any of the following:
/
/ABC
/ABC/DEF
you simply can't tell from looking at the URL. You have to know what
context paths are currently configured.
That is certainly more correct than my simplified explanation,
but,at this point, likely to confuse the OP a bit more, maybe ?
Quoting selectively from Petr's previous posts :
...
in the Catalina configuration directory
(/etc/tomcat5/base/Catalina/localhost/XYtest.xml) is following context
...
(now)
Apache things are in directory
/opt/test/htdocs
tomcat things are in directory
/opt/test/servlet
(/etc/tomcat5/base/Catalina/localhost/)XYtest.xml is now:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context docBase="/opt/test/servlet" allowLinking="true">
</Context>
And jsp are stored in
/opt/test/servlet/jsp/Viewer/View.jsp
...
end quote
and he didn't say -- but I presume --, that web.xml is in
/opt/test/servlet/WEB-INF/web.xml
So, Petr, to bring all this together :
1) in /etc/tomcat5/base/Catalina/localhost/XYtest.xml :
docBase="/opt/test/servlet"
2) in the Apache config :
ProxyPassMatch ^/XYtest/(.*\.jsp)$ ajp://localhost:8009/XYtest/$1
Because if you just use
ProxyPass /XYtest ajp://localhost:8009/Xytest
then a URL like "/XYtest/index.html" will also be passed to Tomcat, and Tomcat will not
find it, considering the location of your "Apache things" above.
3) in the file index.html :
<frame src="/XyTest/jsp/Viewer/View.jsp" ...
Alternatively, you could do :
1a) in /etc/tomcat5/base/Catalina/localhost/XYtest.xml :
docBase="/opt/test/servlet"
2a) in the Apache config :
ProxyPassMatch ^/XYtest/servlet/(.*)$ ajp://localhost:8009/XYtest/$1
3a) in the file index.html :
<frame src="/XyTest/servlet/jsp/Viewer/View.jsp" ...
(in this case, the ProxyPassMatch directive will "strip" the "/servlet" part, which
confuses Tomcat)
When (if?) the above is working, then I will suggest a better (and simpler)
layout
for the files and directives.
