Why don't you learn how to spell or shut your mouth? This is a php forum, I would think that he might get more help in a java forum. Anyways who are you calling stupid, I noticed you didn't provide him with an answer either, dumbass!

Hey guys,
I couldn't even imagine that this kind of question would case this kind of replyes! :-) I was laughing so hard! I don't provide the answer either, because I have the same question. Anyway, you made up my day :-)

I also needed a good laugh today. Hopefully Louie will read this doc http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
and think about if he is helping the problem or only adding to it. But since nobody else has answered this question, I guess I will.

Here is the platform info:
Redhat 7.2
Tomcat 4.0.3 ( will work with any 4.x build )
Apache 1.3.22
PHP 4.0.6
mod_webapp

httpd.conf:

LoadModule webapp_module libexec/mod_webapp.so
AddModule mod_webapp.c

WebAppConnection conn warp localhost:8008
WebAppDeploy tomcat-docs conn /tomcat-docs
WebAppDeploy webdav conn /webdav
WebAppDeploy ROOT conn /root
WebAppInfo /webapp-info

Now, there is a little twist that I've noticed ( maybe it's my own config problem , but maybe not ). Seems like the connector expects the trailing "/" on the url, so to get past that, I had to add permanent redirects for all of the apps I have mapped through the connectors.

Redirect permanent /tomcat-docs http://<server-name>/tomcat-docs/

Hopefully this will help. If it doesn't let me know and I'll work with you to get it running.
