You should outsource your life to India like that guy did in “The Four Hour Workweek”. Then you’d have time to watch your movies!

I just quit BlockBuster for the opposite reason. I have had Die Hard 4 Blu-Ray and one other movie for about 2 months now. I NEVER have time to watch them. Hell, the PPV option is a much better idea, and for a few bux more, we can watch some PPVs in HD.

Comment on Mod_jk, Apache 2.0.48, Tomcat 4.1.29, WinXP by John

Hi Carlos -

Yes, that’s exactly what is happening. It sounds like your mod_jk does not understand http://localhost/examples/jsp.

Your mod_jk configuration should have something like:

JkMount /examples/*.jsp ajp13
JkMount /examples/jsp/*.jsp ajp13

For every URL pattern you wish to “send” to Tomcat, you need a JkMount. Use “*” to make a single JkMount statement work for many URL patterns.

If you are still having trouble, try setting JkLogLevel to “debug”:

JkLogFile “C:/path/to/tomcat/logs/mod_jk.log”
JkLogLevel debug

Then try it again…the log will tell you exactly what is wrong.

Hi,
First of all I want to let you know that yoru Howto for setting up the JSP server on Windows server 2003 has been very useful to me lately, so thanks for porting it.
Secondly, I wnated to see if you could help me figure out why I can get Tomcat to render JSP content if I try to (for example) access the
JSP installation examples using http://localhost:8080/examples/jsp. But when
I try to try http://localhost/examples/jsp I get nothing but the raw html
code of the page (of a specific example).

Does mod_jk needs further configuration?

I am using apache 2.2, tomcat 6.0 and j2se 1.5
Please let me know if you have a lead as to what may be the problem.
