FMSA Win 2003 not working with Apache

[WestCoaster]

Hi there,

I have just been trying to set up FMSA 8 on a Windows 2003 server using Apache. When trying to open http://localhost/fmi/config I get "Service temporarily unavailable" with an 503 HTTP error.

I can't (and don't want to) set up FMSA on this machine using IIS because the server is a virtual private server running at a reseller's location with multiple virtual hosts installed by default with IIS. It took me quite a few hours to get the installing routine of FMSA start running by twirking several virtual directories of IIS.

I set up Apache according to FMWebSchool's step by step howto.

The FM Web connector error log (web_server_module_log.txt) says:

"[Tue May 01 15:45:16 2007][13744:25272] [error] jk_ajp_common.c (1942) (config) Connecting to tomcat failed. Tomcat is probably not started or is listening on the wrong port"

In the Apache error log no entry appears. The Apache error log says:

"127.0.0.1 - - [01/May/2007:16:12:25 +0200] "GET /fmi/config/ HTTP/1.1" 503 323"

Apache itself runs fine. It appears to me that I am only a few mouse clicks away from hitting the target.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks in advance.
