bild a file: worker.properties

worker.list=controller,Tomcat1,Tomcat2
#========Tomcat1========
worker.Tomcat1.port=8009
worker.Tomcat1.host=ip1
worker.Tomcat1.type=ajp13
worker.Tomcat1.lbfactor=1
#========Tomcat2========
worker.Tomcat2.port=8009
worker.Tomcat2.host=ip2
worker.Tomcat2.type=ajp13
worker.Tomcat2.lbfactor=1
#========controller========
worker.controller.type=lb
worker.controller.balanced_workers=Tomcat1,Tomcat2
worker.controller.sticky_session=false


build a file mod_jk.conf

LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so
JkWorkersFile conf/workers.properties
JkMount /* controller
