I'm trying to compile Mod_JK for Apache to connect to Tomcat. I've downloaded the sourcefiles, installed Ant, and now try to build it. But something goes wrong and I can't figure out what.

I've installed Apache2 in /library/apache2. I've copied Mod_jk into this folder. In this folder is a build.xml file. I'm not sure what to do with that. Should I run Ant here? If I do so, I get an error:

/Library/Apache2/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk2-2.0.4-src/build.xml:45: Basedir /Library/Apache2/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk2-2.0.4-src/util does not exist

In the mod_jk folder is a folder "jk", and if I run Ant in there, I get another error. I'm not sure where to look an what to do.

Open build.xml in a text editor. Does it reference jakarta-tomcat-connectors-jk2-2.0.4-src? If so, rename it to the actual path to your jk folder. build.xml is the file that ant uses to determine the build targets and procedure.

Why bother with Apache at all?
Why not just use JBoss, or Orion, etc, etc?
