can generate mod_jk.conf on tomcat 5?

[Peter Eakle]

I have a website running on Tomcat 5.0 and would like to bring in Apache 2.0 to serve static content (I'm doing this on my XP laptop -- I'll do it on Fedora next). I've had trouble finding a clear description of how to do this. Older articles covering Tomcat 4.0 or before talk about a procedure where Tomcat generates the mod_jk.conf file. Those articles say to add a statement like the following to Tomcat's server.xml file:

<Listener className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.config.ApacheConfig"
append="true"/>

but notice the "tomcat4" in this statement. I can't find a class with this name in my Tomcat 5 distribution so I'm not sure how this can work. Anyone know if this is the right statement for generating mod_jk.conf, or if I need to substitute "tomcat5" above, or if the auto generation feature still exists in Tomcat5.

Thanks a lot. -Pete

I am having the same issue. I am on tomcat6 and apache 2.x on Fedora. I dont seem to find the auto generated config file. Anyone knows how to auto generate the mod_jk.conf file automatically in tomcat 6? That galatea.com link does not seem to work anymore.
