I am trying to install Tomcat on Apache1 for the first time. I have successfully set up Tomcat by following some online guide, and it works fine on localhost:8080. However, I failed to get it to work on port 80 normally. Although there seems to be no errors at all.
I have used mod_jk, this version:
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk/release/v1.2.4/bin/win32/mod_jk_1.3.27.dllAnd it was loaded properly by Apache.
Does anybody know why would it not work right?
The only problem is that the guide is discussing doing it with Apache2, and I am trying to avoid using Apache2 because it doesn't seem to be favored by PHP. If somebody can confirm that this is the problem I think I can installed Apache2 anyway.
If that matters: I am using windows XP, and that is only for development purposes, (Which leads me to ask another question: Will it ever matter for me in a test server whether it works with Apache or not? Can't I just use Tomcat alone?)
The guide I am refering to is:
