David,

Thanks for the reply.  I have seen some references on Ignite/400 list that
you can run Tomcat 4.x with the built in support by using the
"out-of-process" option.  I know that Tomcat has a built-in server but my
concern would be when someone has some existing CGI or Net.Data apps
running and want to add Tomcat into the mix.  Ideally Apache could accept
all incoming HTTP requests and just route them appropriately.  Linking to
another port isn't an option due to firewall restrictions.

I have another question that perhaps you can help with.

I have an existing web app that uses the Toolbox for JDBC and PCML.  It
runs fine on WebSphere 4.0.3.  I am trying to run it on Tomcat 4.1.12 and
get exceptions in the PCML due to parser issues.  I think it is a class
loader issue that it is picking up the parsers from Tomcat instead of
using the older Xerces parser (x4j400.jar) that the toolbox normally uses.
 I have tried the latest version of jtopen which is supposed to fix this
but with no luck.

If I remove x4j400.jar from webapp/lib folder I get an error that it
cannot find the parser class.  If I add it back, then I get invalid
signature errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Mark
