I was having a bit of trouble with mod_jk1.2.19 and virtual host
configuration in apache 2.=20

=20

I hope I can shed some light on what I discovered and put this question
to rest. The error message in the subject can be found all over the net
with no helpful responses.I know, I was having this problem and every
post about this problem led to a dead end. In re-stating the problem and
attempting to provide more clues, I found a solution but have no insight
into why this "fixes" the problem.

=20

The goal is to hook up apache with tomcat via mod_jk such that I can
have separate domains pointing at distinct deployments in the webapps
directory.=20

=20

Thus pounding on http://it7.blah.com <http://it7.blah.com/>  would
connect via mod_jk to the tomcat app in ${tomcat.home}/webapps/it7 and
http://it8.blah.com <http://it8.blah.com/>  to
${tomcat.home}/webapps/it8

=20

I had successfully configured Tomcat (5.5.16) and mod_jk as evidenced by
my working apps and the mod_jk.conf file that is generated under
${tomcat.home}/conf/auto/

=20

The problem arose when configuring apache. My worker.properties file is
located in /etc/httpd/conf/worker.properties and tomcat references it
and apparently understands it well enough to create a mod_jk.conf file
which has a (visually) correct virtual host for every container app in
tomcat. This isn't exactly what I want however, so I am not using it
other than as evidence that parts of this configuration are working
properly.

=20

With my configuration( See below), after restarting apache, the
following appears in the mod_jk.log file.

=20

This message was originally to be a plea for help and in reviewing the
data and configuration, I discovered that the inprocess worker is in the
worker.properties sample file by default.=20

=20

worker.list=3Dworker1,inprocess=20

=20

worker1 is ajp13 in the sample. The problem appears to be that
"inprocess" shouldn't be in the worker.list. When I remove the inprocess
worker from the list, I get the results I was after. It all appears to
work properly now.
