Redirection problem

Hi,

We have powerful Solaris server which hosts 2 sets of Apache 2.0.48 -> JBoss
3.07 with Tomcat 4.1.18
using mod_jk2 2.0.2, running a bunch of web applications.
They are configured to run independently (2 server names, 2 virtual servers,
different ports, etc.)
Used to run without a single glitch for about 1/2 year.

Yesterday we had a power failure, so the server crashed.
After that we rebooted it, it automatically started Apache, we manually
started JBoss.
One set was totally restored (no problems whatsoever), but another one has a
problem:
- if you try to run any of the applications, getting error 404;
- if you try to go to the main page: http://myserver1.com , you are getting
index.jsp (Tomcat's main page
with the cat);
- but if you try to use port 8080 (http://myserver1.com:8080 ), getting main
page and all the apps just fine.
Even tried to kill the second instance of java process for JBoss/Tomcat -
same exact picture on server1
(ghost tomcat? - no catalina or tomcat proccesses running)
Actually, is Tomcat a java process ?(seem to have tomcat.exe in bin
directoty)

I interpreted it as a failure of something in the Apache-Tomcat-JBoss
bridge.
So I tried to do the following:
- reboot server - same problem;
- reinstalled Apache, copied all config files and modules (imcl. ) from old
instance of Apache to a new one - same;
- after that restarted JBoss - same.

Nobody touched any config files.

Could you please suggest what might be wrong and how to fix it ?

Please help !


TIA,
Oleg.

Re: Redirection problem

I forgot to mention that if I shutdown the second instance of JBoss/Tomcat,
on the second instance of Apache http://myserver2.com I am getting error
"Internal Server Error",
but on the first instance of Apache http://myserver1.com I still get the
same Tomcat admin page with the cat (index.jsp)
although no java processes are running.
If I go to any application on either server, getting error 404 "Resource not
available"

Can you explain how can I get that Tomcat's webapps/admin/index.jsp page
when Tomcat is down,
is that mod_jk2 doing somehow ?

Please help !

TIA,
Oleg.
