Hi Forum
I have troubles while installing mod_jk.
tomcat bin: /usr/local/tomcat (symlink to jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9)
apache: /usr/local/apache

I can see all examples. But if I click on execute I get this message:

I got it:
You need to configure Tomcat to tell it about the virtual hosts. Edit the jakarta-tomcat/conf/server.xml file and add the following:
          <Host name="www.yourdomain">
               <Context path="" docBase="/web/host1" debug="0"/>
          </Host>
Now you need to tell Apache about the virtual host. Edit the apache/httpd.conf file and add the following:
          <VirtualHost server-ip>
               DocumentRoot /web/host1
               ServerName www.yourdomain
               JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 #ajp13 = tomcat worker
          </VirtualHost>
Finally, restart Tomcat and then Apache. Visit the virtual host at http://www.yourdomain/ and you should see the site up and running.
