Thanks for the great article on integrating apache tomcat using mod_jk on O'reillyNet. Tomcat works fine independently on port 8080 and apache correctly serves plain html files in the tomcat examples directory as well (i.e. Examples menu page). However, I get a 500 Internal Server Error when accessing any of the example .jsp and servlet files. Mod_jk.log says "did not found a worker." any help would be greatly appreciated. I have apache 1.3.26, jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4, jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.1.9 installed. My workers.properties file: # Setup for Mac OS X workers.tomcat_home=/usr/local/Tomcat workers.catalina_home=/usr/local/Tomcat workers.java_home=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home ps=/ worker.list=ajp12, ajp13 # Definition for Ajp13 worker # worker.ajp13.port=8009 worker.ajp13.host=localhost worker.ajp12.type=ajp13 Server.xml file has the following Ajp13 connector listening on port 8009 (didn't change anything here). <Connector className="org.apache.ajp.tomcat4.Ajp13Connector" port="8009" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" acceptCount="10" debug="0"/> Virtual host block: <IfModule mod_jk.c> JkWorkersFile /usr/local/Tomcat/conf/workers.properties JkLogFile /usr/local/Tomcat/logs/mod_jk.log JkLogLevel debug JkMount /*.jsp ajp13 JkMount /servlet/* ajp13 Alias /tomcat/examples /usr/local/Tomcat/webapps/examples <Directory "/usr/local/Tomcat/webapps/examples"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks </Directory> JkMount /tomcat/examples/servlet/* ajp13 JkMount /tomcat/examples/*.jsp ajp13 <Location "/tomcat/examples/META-INF/"> AllowOverride None deny from all </Location> </IfModule> Tail of mod_jk.log: Into jk_uri_worker_map_t::map_uri_to_worker Attempting to map URI '/tomcat/examples/jsp/dates/date.jsp' jk_uri_worker_map_t::map_uri_to_worker, Found a suffix match ajp13 -> *.jsp jk_uri_worker_map_t::map_uri_to_worker, Found a suffix match ajp13 -> *.jsp Into wc_get_worker_for_name ajp13 wc_get_worker_for_name, done did not found a worker

  I have tried this and it still doesn't work. In looking at the mod_jk.log file when I restart apache, it seems that the only user that it adds is ajp12 on port 8007. Unfortunately, I'm using tomcat 4.1.12, which doesn't support that protocol it needs ajp13 on port 8009). Besides, I have no idea where it is getting that user from. I don't have ajp12 defined anywhere in any configuration file I can find - certainly not in workers.properties.
  
  Any suggestions would be most appreciated!!!

  I had the same problem until I moved all of the Jk commands outside of the virtual host block except for the JkMount statements.
  
  So put these in the httpd.conf file outside of the virtual host block:
  
  JkWorkersFile /usr/local/Tomcat/conf/workers.properties
  JkLogFile /usr/local/Tomcat/logs/mod_jk.log
  JkLogLevel debug

  Yes! I had this error, and the post below was the answer. move all JK* commands outside the httpd.conf virtualhost and only leave behind the expression to tell apache which pages to send to mod_jk, namely "JkMount /*jsp" and any others

  Did anyone solve your "wc_get_worker_for_name, done did not found a worker" problem?
  
  I've encountered the same problem and have run out of ideas for troubleshooting.
  
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Moving
  JkWorkersFile ...
  JkLogFile ...
  JkLogLevel ...
  
  inton httpd.conf worked for me too!
