I'm working on a FMS9A -> FMS10A upgrade right now, and running into the same problem I've run into every time I've attempted such.

What I do each time is uninstall FMS9A then install FMS10A. Every time I do this, when FMS10A gets all configured, it's web server connector is not working properly. Whenever a mod_jk path is requested, it doesn't properly map it. Eg, if I request http://www.servername.com/fmi/iwp/, Apache thinks it's a normal request and throws an error, instead of it being properly mapped by mod_jk to the WPE.

I do know the WPE is running properly, as if I use a second web server to connect to the WPE on the upgraded box, it works fine - since the mod_jk mapping is going on on the second web server.

Note that this is also with an installation of FMS9A which has had a few point upgrades done on it since the original install.

My only solution in these cases is to do a completely fresh install of FMS10A on a fresh machine. Needless to say, that takes a *lot* of more time than just doing an upgrade.

Note I also tried uninstalling FMS10A, clearing the Java cache, and reinstalling, but still no luck.

Wondering if anyone else has seen this, and if they have any solution? Thanks!

FYI, found my problem with this. It was a file permissions issue, which I wouldn't have thought would come into play, with Apache checking it's root folder permissions before handing off to mod_jk.
