AJP Connector on Tomcat

Thread view:

Hi there,

I'm trying to use connector between Apache and Tomcat 5.5.
Do to that, I've added some lines to server.xml:
<Connector
    address="192.168.2.101" port="8009"
    protocol="AJP/1.3"
    tomcatAuthentication="false" />

When I start Tomcat (on Windows XP, for test purposes), I obtain a stack
trace error:
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source)

ound

...

This error disappears if I remove inserted lines.
Does anybody can hel me ?

Thanks for your answers

Armel

I have found what's wrong: tomcat does not have xerces installed. If I
put xercesimpl.jar in {tomcat_home}/server/lib, all works fine.

for information, this is my server.xml:

<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
<Service name="Catalina">
<Connector
    address="192.168.2.101" port="8009"
    protocol="AJP/1.3"
    tomcatAuthentication="false" />


<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="192.168.2.101">
<Host
    name="192.168.2.101" appBase="/d:/ProgramShop/server"
    unpackWARs="false" autoDeploy="false"
    xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
        directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log."
suffix=".txt" pattern="combined" resolveHosts="false"/>

</Host>
</Engine>
</Service>
</Server>

Thanks

Tomcat should not need Xerces there.

Are you by any chance running Tomcat on an old Java version
without builtin XML parser ?
