Will somebody give me a clue?? {Apache, Tomcat, mod_jk-1box}

[sneakyme66]

I'm having some problems with this recent setup,
->Apache->mod_jk->tomcat

When I access a site, say host.com/assign5, which is a tomcat dir, I get html as text
when I go to it through tomcat host.com:8080/assign5, I get redirected to host.com:8080/assign5/index.html

Index in this case is a servlet

Also---------------
How can I get SSL working cheapest??


THANKS

if you havent changet the configuration, then host.com/assign5 is not tomcat.
so, I demand more info about your configuration, like tomcat version, config file, etc.


and... did you try assign.html? what is your servlet mapping anyway?

for ssl I would hit the wiki: http://www.mbaworld.com/docs/ssl-howto.html

I'm running trac and trying to use tomcat to host an ssl auction website for school. Thanks

ok...
what about web.xml?

I was wondering, what do you mean with: "I get html as text" paste or screenshot to help me pls
If I get you right, assign5 is a tomcat directory in /var/lib/tomcat-6/webapps, this means it is a web application, right? if so, that it is normal that you get redirected to the index.html page, since it is the default action. You can redefine it in your web.xml in /var/lib/tomcat-6/webapps/assing5/ I would suggest that you install tomcat with doc and examples enabled, restart tomcat, and open http://localhost:8080/ It will explain somewhat how the thing works.

btw, you havent updated your www-servers/apache, the * after ldap helped me guess it.

ps: All I can help you is about tomcat, since I used apache for the last time 5-6 years ago...

What I'm saying about the index.html (index servlet) is that firefox shows this... instead of the actual page. When going to http://host/assign5. But, when going to http://host:8080/assign5 I get the actual page that this represents.

Thanks for the ssl guide! Got any other security related tips? (btw this is not the same project that will be in ssl) If I put my mysql my.cnf, "skip-networking" how do I connect to the db in a java servlet? Also, best way to do user authentication and where to store DB passwords?

You're right, assign5 is in my tomcat webapps dir. Here's my web.xml from the assign5 WEB-INF dir. What is the difference in that web.xml and the one in the tomcat conf dir?
