Apache and Tomcat integration

Question

I am trying to integrate apache and tomcat. I thus want apache to forward requests to tomcat. I am using the mod_jk module for apache to achieve this.

So far I am trying to get tomcat to auto-gen the configuration files for the mod_jk - I add the relevant to my server.xml

<Listener className="org.apache.jk.config.ApacheConfig" modJk="/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so" />

This does not however work.

Please could someone that has done this recently give me some direction. I suspect that a lot of the documentation is for old versions of apache and tomcat.

Okay, I got it. You have to include the worker.properties before it will generate the mod_jk.conf
