How to run tomcat and lampp/xampp together using jakarta-tomcat-connector or mod_jk module on Linux?
After having spend almost 48 hours on the system and not finding a satisfactory answer, I could solve the problem and I decided to post the solution for people who might have the same problem.
1. Download xampp-linux-1.4.11.tar.gz. Unzip as follows:
tar zxvf xampp-linux-1.4.11.tar.gz -C /opt
Note, I tried integrating tomcat with the latest xamp, but with utter failure. Later I could figure out that I needed apache-2.0 to make mod_jk.so module work. I tried compiling mod_jk from source, but it did not compile and gave all kinds of errors.
2. Download tomcat-connectors-1.2.22-src.tar.gz from link. This connector has already compiled mod_jk.so module that wors with apache 2.0 (and not apache 2.2.x) and also sets all configuration files.
3. Execute: tar zxvf tomcat-connectors-1.2.22-src.tar.gz -C /opt
4. Add following line to /opt/lampp/etc/httpd.conf
Include etc/tomcat.conf
5. Run lampp:
/opt/lampp/lampp start
6. Run tomat:
/opt/lampp/bin/startup.sh
Check that you following link opens in browser:
http://your-domain.com:8080/jsp-examples/
7. To check if the conector is working correctly,
http://your-domain.com/jsp-examples/
should open.
If this works fine, Congratulations you have succueeded in making lampp/xampp and apache work with tomcat.

1. Downlad XAMPP for Windows Add-ons Tomcat xxx the exe version from http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
2. Extract at xampp\
3. Run (from command prompt) xampp\tomcat_start.bat
4. Run (from command prompt) xampp\xampp_start.bat
5. Make shortcut of xampp starter on the desktop if necessary.
6. Save your jsp files at localhost:8080/examples/
7. Access the jsp file from the web browser.
* This entry assumes that you have already installed xampp successfully.
Lood luck!
Thank you for this! Not sure what I would've done without it.
I have a couple of updates:
in step 6, run /opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh
and in step 7, latest versions have changed to localhost:8080/examples/jsp
