Hello Tomcat Gurus,

 I've created a new host in my server.xml file for a site,
new_tridentms.com. This site is redirected from apache. The problem is
this: My new host will not save session info. I created the site on a
development server under the "webapps" default host and everything works
fine. Only when I move it to the new server in it's own host configuration
does it stop storing session vars. I suspect I'm missing some directive
under my <Host> tag but I don't know what it is.

 Another thing that is worth mentioning is that I'm using the MVC
paradigm so a one servlet is actually placing the object into the session
and other servlets read it out.

 Here are excerpts from my configuration files:

 server.xml for Tomcat:
 
 ...
 <Host name = "new_tridentms.com" debug = "0" unpackWARs="true">
   <Alias>www.new_tridentms.com</Alias>
   <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
       directory = "logs" prefix="new_tridentms"
       suffix=".log" timestamp="true"/>
   <Context path="" docBase="/data/tms_www/new_tridentms"
       debug="0"
       reloadable="true"/>
 </Host>
 ...
 
 httpd.conf:
 ....
 <VirtualHost X.x.x.x:x>    #IP Masked out to protect my server
:)
   DocumentRoot /data/tms_www/new_tridentms
   ServerName www.new_tridentms.com
   ServerAlias new_tridentms.com
   ServerAdmin webmaster@(protected)
   JkMount /*.jsp tomcatworker # My servlets are mapped using a
.jsp after the servlet name to avoid naming problems with the apache
connector.
 </VirtualHost>
 ....

Thanks so much for your help.
