Configuring the Apache Web Server
4. Using My webMethods Server with Web Servers
If you have met the prerequisites in “Prerequisites to Configuring Apache” on page 37
and found the Apache files as described in “Locating the Apache Files” on page 37, you
can configure My webMethods Server to use the Apache Web server on a UNIX system.
The following procedure provides general guidelines and assumes the implementation of
a standard Apache configuration; the requirements of your specific situation may vary.
To configure My webMethods Server with Apache Web server on a UNIX system
1 Copy the mod_jk‐1.3‐noeapi.so binary file from the location described in “Locating
the Apache Files” on page 37 to the Apache /libexec directory.
2 Copy the example workers.properties to the Apache /conf directory.
Note: In the following step, do not copy the http.conf file, as you do not want to
overwrite the file that already exists in the Apache /conf file. Rather, use the http.conf
file in the My webMethods Server directory structure as an example of the correct
location for each entry.
3 Edit the http.conf file in the Apache / conf directory to add the following entries.
Add these lines to http.conf
LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk‐1.3‐noeapi.so
JkWorkersFile $APACHE_HOME/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile $APACHE_HOME/logs/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel info
JkMount /portal
JkMount /* portal
If you have a more complex Apache distribution than just the defaults with shared
modules enabled, as shown here, you may need to adjust this configuration in more
detail as per your site needs. This example assumes that only the basic components
for an Apache Web server are installed. Both My webMethods Server and Apache are
VERY flexible, this is intended to be only the basics to get this integration to function.
4 Edit the settings in the workers.properties file to ensure that the host entry is correct
and has the same port number you intend to use when configuring the AJP13 listener
configuration.
