<p>
The primary mechanism for support is through the JK
documentation included in the doc directory.
Documentation is also available on the Apache Tomcat web site devoted to the
<a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/">
Apache Tomcat Connectors Project</a>
For additional help, the best resource is the Tomcat Users Discussion list.
You should start by searching
<a href="http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/">
the mail list archive</a>
before you post questions to the list.
If you are unable to locate the answer to your question in the archive,
you can post questions about JK to the user list for assistance.
Make sure that you include the version of your Webserver,
that you are using as well as the platform you are running on
and go
<a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html">
here</a>
to determine how to subscribe to tomcat mailing list.

Ajp13 uses persistant connections where the traffic could be null if there is no request to be sent to Tomcat.
Firewalls use to drop inactive connections and will make your web server and Tomcat think the connection is valid.

Starting with JK 1.2.0, a <b>socket_keepalive</b> property as been added to ajp13 settings, and you should take a look at
it in <a href="../generic_howto/workers.html">Workers HowTo</a> and

<p>
Under heavy load, Apache Web Server creates many children to handle the load,
which will in turn create many connections
to Tomcat to forward the requests they should handle.
Apache Web Server will normally kill the children/threads when the load decreases.
But if the load is still there and even if only Apache handles the requests,
ie static contents, the children are kept and with them all the ajp13 connections,
even if they are no more used.
</p>
<p>
To close connections after some time of inactivity you can use <b>connection_pool_timeout</b>,

<p>
Many versions of Apache use a modified API, known at Extended API, developed for use with the

</p>
<p>
For example, Apache 1.3 present in certains recent Linux distributions include the
<b>mod_ssl</b> module.
</p>
<p>
So if you got such 'Extended Apache', you need to use <b>mod_jk.so-eapi</b>.
</p>
<p>
You should use <b>mod_jk.so-noeapi</b> only for 'Standard Apache' (ie without mod_ssl).
</p>
<p>
It's wise to avoid using EAPI modules on STD API Apache or to use standard API modules on EAPI Apache.
Allways be sure to have the <b>mod_jk.so</b> witch match your version of Apache

<p>
APXS is a Perl script that is created when you build the Apache web server from source.
Chances are that if you are getting these errors and you obtained Apache as a binary distribution,
that APXS is not configured correctly for your system.
Your best bet is to get the Apache source from http://httpd.apache.org and build it yourself.
Use the following for a basic build (read the Apache docs for other options):
<p class="screen"><div align="left"><table width="80%" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#000000"><tr><td bgcolor="#000000" align="left"><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">cd /usr/local/src</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">gzip -dc apache_1.3.19.tar.gz|tar xvf -</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">cd apache_1.3.19</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache \</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen"> --enable-module=most \</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen"> --enable-shared=max</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">make</b></nobr></code><br><code><nobr><em class="screen">[user@host] ~ $ </em><b class="screen">make install</b></nobr></code><br></td></tr></table></div></p>

<p>
Since Apache 2.0 API still change often, the Apache 2.0 teams decide to put in headers of compiled modules the
Apache 2.0 version used to compile the module. This check is called Magic Module Number bump.
</p>
<p>
At start time Apache 2.0 check that version in modules headers and stop if it detect that a module was compiled
for another Apache 2.0 version. As such you should allways use modules compiled for the same Apache 2.0 version.
This check may be removed if the future.

<p>
mod_jk works well with Apache 2.2. You need a binary module compiled for version 2.2 of the Apache web server.
A binary compiled for version 2.0 will not work.
</p>
<p>
Important parts of the functionality of mod_jk have been reimplemented as Apache httpd modules mod_proxy_ajp
and mod_proxy_balancer. These are part of the standard distributoin of Apache 2.2. The new modules do not contain
all features of mod_jk, but you get them automatically with every Apache 2.2.

JNI support requires a multi-threaded environment which is not the general case for Apache 1.3.
