apache2 not starting

[Aszrael]

Hi,
I followed your excellent howto.
When starting apache2 it drops out with
"Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/conf.d/ox.conf:
Invalid command 'JkWorkersFile', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in server configuration"

Somehow mod_jk is not loaded by apache2, but:
libapache2-mod-jk (v.1.2.18-3etch1) is installed and mod_jk.so is in /usr/lib/apache2/
JkWorkersFile in ox.conf is pointing to /etc/libapache2-mod-jk/workers.properties.

Am I missing something? Is the module to be included somewhere in apache-configs?

[edit] there is no jk.load in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
how do I get it? [/edit]

Thanks
Aszrael

Hi,

to use mod_jk the module has to be loaded by apache2, this seems to be distribution specific, maybe there exists a how-to for your distribution?

[sledge0303]

a2enmod lists available apache modules, choose your mod_jk, restart Apache2 and then should everything be all right.

thanks for your extremely quick reply.
I found the answer:
# a2enmod jk
did the trick for me on debian/etch
Maybe this could be added to Open_Xchange_Installation.

Thanks a lot

i installed a dozen machines with Hyperion on Debian Etch and mod_jk worked on every default install... *confused*
