Integrate Apache with Tomcat using mod_jk

• For debian, create the followig file /etc/apache2/conf.d/scalix-jk-common.conf as per file below:

 #
 # Scalix JK connector configuration
 # (file common to all platforms)
 #
 
 # Setup JK connector needed to run Tomcat under Apache server:
 
 <IfModule mod_jk.c>
 
 # Set the jk log level [debug/error/info]
 JkLogLevel          info
 
 # Select the log format
 JkLogStampFormat   "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] "
 
 # JkOptions indicate to send SSL KEY SIZE,
 JkOptions          +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories
 
 # JkRequestLogFormat set the request format
 JkRequestLogFormat "%w %V %T"
 
 # Send everything for context /examples to worker named worker1 (ajp13)
 JkMount            /webmail* worker1
 JkMount            /sac* worker1
 JkMount            /caa* worker1
 JkMount            /webcal* worker1
 JkMount            /res* worker1
 
 # workers.properties content:
 
 # Define 1 real worker using ajp13
 JkWorkerProperty worker.list=worker1
 
 # Set properties for worker1 (ajp13)
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.type=ajp13
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.host=localhost
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.port=8009
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.lbfactor=50
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.cachesize=10
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.cache_timeout=600
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.socket_keepalive=1
 JkWorkerProperty worker.worker1.reclycle_timeout=300
 
 </IfModule>

• Next create the followig file /etc/apache2/conf.d/scalix-jk-debian.conf as per file below:

 #
 # Scalix JK connector configuration
 # (file specific to Debian platforms)
 #
 
 <IfModule mod_jk.c>
 # Where to put jk logs
 JkLogFile     /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log
 </IfModule>
 

• Next you should disable port 8080 in Tomcat (optional but recommended):
  • edit the file /opt/scalix-tomcat/conf/server.xml:
  • comment out the line that starts with '<Connector port="8080"...' using XML style comments

• Then restart Tomcat with /etc/init.d/scalix-tomcat restart
• Then restart Apache2 with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

• For redhat, more to come ;)

Integrate On-The-Fly compression in Apache using mod_deflate

• For debian, create the followig file /etc/apache2/conf.d/scalix-deflate.conf as per file below:

# Configure on-the-fly deflate compression of the pages:

<Location />
  AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xml text/html text/css
  AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
</Location>

• Then do:

• Then restart Apache2 with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
