    Hello,

    Information about the end of Tomcat support in cPanel on CentOS 7 is available on the following thread:

    Tomcat 8 and Java 8 support

    I'm not aware of a workaround or plugin to allow for Tomcat to function with EasyApache 4 at this time, however feel free to reach out to a developer or system administrator for additional assistance. You can find a list of system administration services at:

    System Administration Services

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    We were trying to develop a module where in we can implement Mod_Jk and Tomcat in Centos 6.x with Easy Apache 4. The key areas to work would be

    1. Creating mod_jk.so by installing tomcat connector
    2. Loading mod_jk module in httpd.conf
    3. Configuring jk.conf with path to worker.properties and jk log
    4. Configuring cp_jkmount.conf
    5. Configuring worker.properties
    6. Installing and Configuring Tomcat
    7. Tomcat options for startup configuration
    8. Tomcat host template configuration
    9. Creating Tomcat as service and init files
    10.Commandliners for tomcat restart, add servlets, remove servlets

    We are stuck in mod_jk.so creation, because we tried with every version of tomcat connector available from 1.2.37 to 1.2.41

    we get the error

    httpd: Syntax error on line 27 of /etc/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/conf.modules.d/555_mod_jk.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_jk.so into server: /etc/apache2/modules/mod_jk.so: undefined symbol: ap_get_server_version
    httpd could not be started

    Can you help us in fixing this issue. Fixing this could make other steps easier to complete.

    Hello,

    It looks like you have made some progress on this based on your post at:

    Request to keep EasyApache 3

    Could you let us know the specific Tomcat related options are overwritten? Keep in mind this is unsupported, so while we can help with information about cPanel configurations and paths, we won't be able to directly support issues with Tomcat that could arise after using a custom workaround.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Let me explain what we have done and then the issue we face

    1. Installed jdk and sdk
    2. Installed jsvc
    3. Installed Tomcat with paths same as how cpanel does [ as in /usr/local/easy ]
    4. We could not get apxs complied with easyapache 4 and hence as a work around got mod_jk.so from another server and placed it in /etc/apache2 modules
    5. Created necessary conf files to be included for apache
    6. When we start tomcat , it works [ We used few of the cpanel scripts in /etc/init.d for start and restart ]

    Now the issue is when we update cpanel we get the following error. We are having 58.0.2 build

    Hello,

    Are those dependencies already installed under different package names? EX:

    Code:
    rpm -qa|grep jakarta
    If not, are you able to install those packages on your system via YUM?

    Thank you.
