Integration with Apache

1. Apache

1.1) Make sure that you have configured Apache to use the Prefork MPM (not the Worker MPM) to avoid hangs caused by an AJP bug. See here for details.
1.2) Ensure that an AJP connector is defined in your [tomcat]/conf/server.xml file. This is the case by default, so you probably don't need to change anything. There should be a line like the following in server.xml:
```
<Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" />
```
If you need to edit server.xml then restart Tomcat afterwards.
1.3) Enable mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp in Apache. For example, uncomment the 2 'LoadModule' lines that will look something like this:
```
LoadModule proxy_module /usr/lib/apache2/mod_proxy.so

LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
```
1.4) Add the following statement to the configuration file for your virtual host (or, if you are not using virtual hosts, your httpd.conf file):
```
ProxyPass /asset-bank ajp://<tomcat server>:8009/asset-bank retry=0
```
If you are running Tomcat on the same machine as Apache you should use ‘localhost’ as the tomcat server name:
```
ProxyPass /asset-bank ajp://localhost:8009/asset-bank retry=0
```
1.5) Restart apache
1.6) The application should now be available to view at http://<server name>/asset-bank/
1.7) For more information on using mod_proxy_ajp to combine Apache and Tomcat read the mod_proxy_ajp documentation
