*** need help *** apache tomcat mod_jk FreeBSD 6.0

[Michael Vince]

Use Apache2.2 which is the latest release stable version of Apache over 
the 2.1 series which are just experimental betas and should never be 
used in an production environment, but the 2.1 series have shown that 
2.2 is really ready to go straight into production use as far as I am 
concerned.

I have been testing with Apache 2.2 which seems to have tons of little 
things that are much better about it over the old 2.0 Apache series, one 
big one is the new built in AJP protocol module for Tomcat, I am using 
Tomcat 5.5.9 which appears to work better with AJP then Tomcat 5.0.x.
As long as you aren't under extereme load AJP gives the best performance 
but if you really push the load on the server you might get 503 status 
errors in Apache logs, but using AJP does perform more requests/sec 
because it uses less CPU over using mod_proxy HTTP style connectors to 
Tomcat.

I use a portupgrade command for the apache22 port to install the proxy 
modules and worker MPM via a single portupgrade command.
portupgrade -RrN -m 'WITH_MPM=worker -DWITH_PROXY_MODULES' 
/usr/ports/www/apache22

Make sure you have 'LoadModule proxy_ajp_module 
libexec/apache22/mod_proxy_ajp.so' enabled in httpd.conf

Then in the virtual host directive of Apache link it with Tomcat 5.5.9 
like so
ProxyPass /javacontext ajp://127.0.0.1:8009/javacontext

Cheers,
Mike
