- remove SSL (see Procedure 2.20, “Removing SSL”);
- add log4j logging (see Procedure 2.21, “Removing log4j From Tomcat 6”);
- enable mod_jk or mod_cluster (see Procedure 2.22, “Configuring mod_jk” and Procedure 2.23, “Configuring mod_cluster”)
Procedure 2.20. Removing SSL
- At the shell prompt, become the root user.
- Run the respective uninstall command:
- on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5:
# yum remove mod_ssl
For tomcat6, the log4j support is provided by the tomcat6-log4j package and is enabled on package installation (see Procedure 2.18, “Installing Enterprise Web Server from RPM Packages”).
Procedure 2.21. Removing log4j From Tomcat 6
- At the shell prompt, become the root user.

- on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5:
# yum remove tomcat6-log4j
Procedure 2.22. Configuring mod_jk
- Install the template
mod_jkconfiguration file:# cp /usr/share/doc/mod_jk-ap22-*/mod_jk.conf.sample /etc/httpd/conf.d/mod_jk.conf
- Install the template
workers.propertiesfile:# cp /usr/share/doc/mod_jk-ap22-*/workers.properties.sample /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
- Add worker mappings to
workers.properties. For example:# Mount the Servlet context to the ajp20 worker /jmx-console=loadbalancer /jmx-console/*=loadbalancer /web-console=loadbalancer /web-console/*=loadbalancer
Note
The default configuration is adequate for low-traffic web sites. For optimization information for moderate and high-load web sites, see http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-15836.
Procedure 2.23. Configuring mod_cluster
- In the
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conffile, add the hash (#) sign at the beginning of the following line to disable mod_proxy_balancer.so:LoadModule proxy_balancer_module modules/mod_proxy_balancer.so
This module is incompatible with the JBoss HTTP Connector. - Configure the server to load the JBoss HTTP Connector modules:
- Create the file
/etc/httpd/conf.d/JBoss_HTTP.conf. - Add the following lines to the
JBoss_HTTP.conffile:LoadModule slotmem_module modules/httpd/modules/mod_slotmem.so LoadModule manager_module modules/mod_manager.so LoadModule proxy_cluster_module modules/mod_proxy_cluster.so LoadModule advertise_module modules/mod_advertise.so
