Mod_jk.conf file is NOT created

Question

Hi Experts,
I am using Apache(2.0.40), JBOSS(3.0.3) and Tomcat(4.0.4) on IBM AIX 5.1 System.
After spending 1 week on Integrating Apache and Tomcat on IBM AIX System (and getting HELP from you guys from Mailing List), I finally builded "mod_jk.so" file for this platform.
I also configured Tomcat's "server.xml" and "workers.properties" file BUT when I start my JBOSS engine, "mod_jk.conf" file is NOT created automatically. I refereed the following document to configure that:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/mod_jk-howto.html
Do you experts have any suggestion/information as to why "mod_jk.conf" file is not created automatically? The above document says the file is CREATED AUTOMATICALLY once you start Tomcat!
Any related information on this would be appreciated.
THANKS!

thanks, I have since figured this one out...
What I cant seem to do is get Apache to use Tomcat to serve any jsp's.
I have spent the last three days working with this and have gotten no where. I am rather frazzled and am about to abandon the thought of using anything Java for a long time.
Let me spell out what I have done for you:

I get a 404 error...
Apache keeps trying to serve the *.jsp's and it fails every time it trys to do so. I know this b/c the Tomcat logs are virtually empty while the Apache logs keep being added to like so:
192.168.0.2 - - [14/Sep/2002:19:04:57 - 0400] "GET /examples/jsp/snp/snoop.jsp HTTP/1.1" 404 294
Can anybody help me figure out how to configure Tomcat4.1 with Apache 2.0?
