Today I was trying to integrate GlassFish Application Server with Apache 2.2. After making all the required configurations, both Apache and GlassFish server successfully started. However when I try to access a JSP using Mod JK I was getting the following exception in my GlassFish log file.

java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: USE_CUSTOM_STATUS_MSG_IN_HEADER

After a little search I could resolve this issue. It was because the version of tomcat-ajp.jar I was using was wrong. So if you are getting the same error with your GlassFish Apache integration make sure that you are using tomcat-ajp.jar from apache-tomcat-5.5.23. Yes, take the tomcat-ajp.jar from Tomcat 5.5.23 and replace incorrect jar file. You are done.

Thanks, your entry saved my life! Why on earth is setting up glassfish to accept AJP connections so difficult?

Thanks for this workaround. Apparently it is fixed in GF2.2 but the package on Ubuntu is currently 2.0 and hence you get this issue.

Thanks again.
