A worker is basically a Tomcat listener, it waits for information from Apache and gives it to Tomcat. This file comes with all the ``inprocess'' workers uncommented, the ``inprocess'' standing for ``in the Apache process'' which is not what we want to do. Here is my workers.properties (note that the file comes with extensive comments):
workers.tomcat_home=/usr/share/tomcat
workers.java_home=/usr/lib/jdk1.1/
ps=/
worker.list=ajp12,ajp13
worker.ajp12.port=8007
worker.ajp12.host=localhost
worker.ajp12.type=ajp12
worker.ajp12.lbfactor=1
worker.ajp13.port=8009
worker.ajp13.host=localhost
worker.ajp13.type=ajp13
worker.ajp13.lbfactor=1
worker.loadbalancer.type=lb
worker.loadbalancer.balanced_workers=ajp12,ajp13
worker.inprocess.class_path=$(workers.tomcat_home)$(ps)classesAnd all other definitions are commented out.
