I did this on a windows machine following the instructions I laid out in this post. However, when installing Apache on Ubuntu using the apt system, you end up with a pretty strikingly different Apache configuration than I was used to. I found an incredibly useful walkthrough written by Robert Peters that I'll basically re-write here.
- After installing Apache and Tomcat, install the Jk module for Apache:
apt-get install libapache2-mod-jk
- Create a file at /etc/apache2/workers.properties and paste in the following lines:
#Define 1 real worker using ajp13 worker.list=worker1 #Set properties for worker1 (ajp13) worker.worker1.type=ajp13 worker.worker1.host=localhost worker.worker1.port=8009
- Edit your Apache configuration by adding a few lines to /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/workers.properties JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log JkLogLevel info JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y]"
- Next, edit Apache's default site. In my case, this was /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/usgin. If you haven't already messed with the default site, it will be /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default.
- Delete or comment out the line that specifies the DocumentRoot.
- Add the following two lines right below the line you just removed:
JkMount / worker1 JkMount /* worker1
- Enable the "Connector port" 8009 in tomcat by uncommenting the following line in /etc/tomcat6/server.xml:
<Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" />
Simply remove the <!-- before and the --> after the line to uncomment it.
- Now, restart tomcat and then restart apache:
/etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
