The Oreilly book is only for Tomcat and Tomcat as a Standalone web/application server. I have spent six months trying to figure out how everything works together and how to get things implemented. Both from FreeBSD and Windows. I do have documentation on how to get Apache2, Tomcat 4.1 and mod_jk2 to work together. Please keep in mind that this is old documentation that I have out there, some things are not optimized yet.
I have just reconfigured my Apache2, Tomcat 4.1 and mod_jk2 installation. I currently have a test environment where I am running two instances of Apache2 from one binary install and three instances of Tomcat from one binary install. Each one running different configuration from straight static site to jsp site and jsp with SSL or Realm security with AD LDAP. But all using mod_jk2 when needed.
I will provide a link to my old documentation to get you started. I will try and answer any other questions also. I am not an expert here though, just some things I have figured out from reading numerous posts here and from other sites. I will repost an updated documentation as soon as all my testing is done.

Hi Bernhard,

I got this book right next to my laptop, and I also like it quite much.
But I can't find it useful when it comes to using mod_jk2. It don't
really understand the contents of workers2.perperties. And they show
only an example of this file in their book.
To give you an example:
[config:]
File=/usr/local/apache2/config/workers2.properties
debug=0
debugEnv=0
I guess here they define some "config" instance. Ok. But where is the
point in giving the path to a config file *in exactly this config
file*?! No idea.
Or, another example:
[uri:/examples]
info=Examples ...
context=/examples
worker=ajp13:localhost:8009
debug=0
This yields a deprecation warning in my apache2 error.log:
[Thu Oct 30 13:13:48 2003] [notice] uriEnv.setAttribute() the worker
directive is deprecated. Use 'group' instead.
What is a group? I guess this could be a node group for load balancing
purposes. But I don't know. And the books won't say, neither the ORA nor
the Wrox one. I'm pretty stuck.
Sorry, I'm upset. Thanks for your hint, anyway.
