Thanks for the response Mark,
Ok so if I want to keep mod_jk as part of this, ( it is what we use at
work ), then if I understand right, I have no choice but to make tomcat
support /tomcat7/ in the path. Do I do this just by moving all the
webapps under webapps/tomcat7/? Will I have to make other configuration
changes?
What is the right way to do this? The way we have it at work is that
each tomcat worker is pointing to one developer's tomcat installation
for the developer to do with as they need.

Hello,
I'm using the following
Apache2.2
mod_jk 1.2.32
Tomcat 7.0.21
I am trying to understand how to configure Apache to allow access to
Tomcat via mod_jk. I have already made some progress, but have got stuck
on one point.
Currently, I can access Apache at http://localhost ( works )
I can also access tomcats default wepapp and the manager and
host-manager via
http://localhost:8080/
http://localhost:8080/manager
http://localhost:8080/host-manager
What I want to do next it to connect Apache to Tomcat via mod_jk such
that the following URLs work
http://localhost/tomcat7/ ( default tomcat webapp)
http://localhost/tomcat7/manager
http://localhost/tomcat7/host-manager
I have updated the workers.properties with:
worker.list=tomcat7
worker.tomcat7.type=ajp13
worker.tomcat7.host=localhost
worker.tomcat7.port=8809
I have added the the following in my http-jk.conf that I include in
http.conf:
JkMount /tomcat7/* tomcat7
When I try to access http://localhost/tomcat7, tomcat is given the URI
/tomcat7/
127.0.0.1 - - [22/Oct/2011:11:34:20 -0300] "GET /tomcat7/ HTTP/1.1"
404 979
So from the above log, I know that apache is forwarding the requests to
tomcat via mod_jk ok, but tomcat now thinks that /tomcat7/ is now part
of the request and since there is no tomcat7 web app, it doesn't match
the request.
I would like http://localhost/tomcat7/ to map to the root of my Tomcat,
and to be able to access http://localhost/tomcat7/manager,
http://localhost/tomcat7/host-manager.
What do I do next?
If you want to modify the URL, you'll need to use mod_proxy. Then you
can do:
ProxyPass /tomcat7 http://localhost:8080
or
ProxyPass /tomcat7 ajp://localhost:8080
Note that as soon as you start modifying the URL as part of the
ProxyPass you open up a world of opportunity for things to go wrong
(redirects, cookie paths, links). All of these are fixable but it is a
lot easier just to use the same URL structure in both httpd and Tomcat.
