Forum Problems Installing LAMS: Apache to Tomcat LAMS configuration question.

JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties

and the following in order to pickup the style sheets:

JkMount /lams/* lams
JkOptions +ForwardURICompat
JkUnMount /lams/*.css lams
JkUnMount /lams/*.js lams
JkUnMount /lams/*.html lams
JkUnMount /lams/*.png lams

On Apache mylearningsite.com is virtually hosted and I can bring LAMS up via mylearningsite.com/lams and log onto LAMS and do basic things like system admin chores. However, when I go to run a learning activity or bring up the Authoring, things get messed up because the Tomcat reverts to using the SERVER_URL that is setup in the LAMS configuration (i.e., http://remotelams.com:8080/lams) on the popped 800x600 window. I get a new loggin screen. However, I have no intention of opening port 8080 up because everything should be routed through 8009. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong in this setup? Are there some URL Rewrite directives that must be configured? This only seems to be haywire when LAMS pops the new window to run an activity or do authoring work.

Here is my workers.properties

worker.list=lams
worker.lams.type=ajp13
worker.lams.host=remotelams.com
worker.lams.port=8009
worker.lams.lbfactor=3
worker.lams.connection_pool_timeout=600
worker.lams.socket_keepalive=1
worker.lams.mount=/lams /lams/*

My server.xml file is unchanged from the LAMS install.

My etc/lams2/lams.properties has a few of the following directives.
LAMS_PORT=8080
SERVER_URL=http://mylearningsite.com/lams/

Thanks for any suggestions.

John
