Apache Tomcat's AJP connector

2. Move the downloaded mod_jk.so file to the HTTPD's module directory, for example /etc/httpd/modules. The directory may be different, depending on the OS.

3. Create the configuration file for the mod_jk.conf module.

LoadModule    jk_module  modules/mod_jk.so
<IfModule jk_module>
  # ---- Where to find workers.properties
        JkWorkersFile   conf.d/workers.properties
  # ---- Where to put jk logs
  JkLogFile       logs/mod_jk.log
  # ---- Set the jk log level [debug/error/info]
  JkLogLevel    info
  # ---- Select the timestamp log format
  JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] "
  JkRequestLogFormat "%w %R %T"
  # ---- Send everything for context /examples to worker named worker1 (ajp13)
  JkMountFileReload       "0"
</IfModule>

For more details, see the Tomcat documentation.

4. Place the mod_jk.conf file into the directory where other configuration files for Apache HTTP daemon are located. For example, /etc/httpd/conf.d/.

5. Create the workers.properties file, which defines the AJP workers for the HTTP daemon.

worker.list=status, WORKER_NAME
# Main status worker
worker.stat.type=status
worker.stat.read_only=true
worker.stat.user=admin
# Your AJP worker configuration
worker.WORKER_NAME.type=ajp13
worker.WORKER_NAME.host=localhost
worker.WORKER_NAME.port=8109
worker.WORKER_NAME.socket_timeout=120
worker.WORKER_NAME.socket_keepalive=true

Note

In the example above, you can change WORKER_NAME to any value.

6. Put this file in the same directory as the mod_jk.conf file.

7. Update the virtual host configuration.

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName      Enter your server DNS name here
  RedirectMatch	permanent "^/?$" "/portal/"
  ProxyRequests   Off
  JkMount         /*	WORKER_NAME
</VirtualHost>
