I have installed tomcat, how do I enable jsp for a domain?

I haven't used this for a while, but it should work:

In Cpanel Addon Modules, enable and install the module. It will install java (/scripts/installjava) and install Tomcat (/usr/local/jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7/) as well as mod_jk. A username (root) and password (random chars - different every time) will be generated during the install process. Verify Tomcat is running with "ps ax | grep java" or "nmap localhost | grep 8080". Point Browser to http://x.y.w.z:8080. Login, run some of the test jsp's, servlets, etc.

To enable mod_jk and have .jsp files parsed by Tomcat, edit server.xml (/usr/local/jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.7/conf/server.xml) and add a <Host> entry for every VirtualHost in the Apache httpd.conf. Example:

      <Host name="domain.tld" debug="0" unpackWARs="true" appBase="/home/USERNAME/public_html">
       <Context path=""
        docBase="/home/USERNAME/public_html" debug="0"
        crossContext="false"
        reloadable="true" />
      </Host>

(METHOD 1) In the Apache httpd.conf (/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf), edit the VirtualHost and add the following two lines:

	JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
	JkMount /servlet/* ajp13

(METHOD 2) Add the following for the entire system:

	<IfModule mod_jk.c>
	  JkMount /*.jsp ajp13
	  JkMount /servlet/* ajp13
	  JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
	  <Location "/examples/WEB-INF/">
	    AllowOverride None
	    deny from all
	  </Location>
	</IfModule>

Verify the following lines exist:

	LoadModule jk_module libexec/mod_jk.so
	AddModule mod_jk.c
	Include "/usr/local/apache/conf/jk.conf"

Add the following line below the other AddType's:

	AddType text/html .jsp

Restart Apache. Point your brower to http://yourdomain.tld, you should see a jsptest.jsp file, click it and the world should be a better place. All workers.properties, jk.conf entries are suffient and autocreated by Cpanel upon installation of the Tomcat addon module.

Is there a way to do it from WHM?

Not that I am aware of (apparently "no" is too short of a post for these forums).

... unless you have a plugin through WHM that lets you edit files directly, such as File Manager/Console for WHM - http://www.configserver.com/cp/fmconsole.html

Under the Account Functions in whm -> Install Servlets, that is for adding jsp/servlet support to an account.

Did tomcat install? Is it running? Try reinstalling it... or go to /usr/local/cpanel/modules-install/tomcat-Linux-i386/ and run the install script. If the install servlet still doesn't show up, try /scripts/installservlet (SSH as root) or https://your.hostname.tld:2087/scripts/servletlist

Any my other two suggestions? If you want this to work you're going to need to try all possibilities.

If a re-install doesn't work, goto the directory above and run the install script manually. You might even see some errors if it fails. Goodluck. I won't be replying again.

Go to /usr/local/jakarta/tomcat/conf/server.xml and make sure that

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

are in the proper order (as above) at the end of the file. If not, fix them and restart tomcat.
