[ale] Webserver and Java recommendations

[Mike Millson]

I don't know anything about PHP, but Apache + Tomcat works well for me for
Java. I haven't used Apache 2.x, so I can only say that the latest 1.x works
great. If you're installing Tomcat on Linux, I recommend using Sun JDK1.4,
the latest JDK (or whatever acronym they're calling it now). There are some
known issues w/ earlier JDKs, and I couldn't get it working smoothly, so I'm
using 1.4 even though it's still technically a beta. I've had no trouble
whatsever on a RH 7.1 system.

If you use Tomcat, you will surely wonder what connector to use between
Apache & Tomcat. I'm using WARP (web_app), but mod_jk is maybe a little
easier to configure from what I gather. But web_app is the future direction;
mod_jk will eventually be phased out from what I understand.

Hope that helps.

Thank you,

I am working developing a PHP based web application that intereacts with
java classes and wondering what is the recommended
webserver-JAVA(JSP)-PHP combination.

What version of apache is best?
Tomcat or JServ?
What version of PHP?


Thanks,
Mark
