# cd /usr/local/apache/conf/userdata/std/2/

4. check whether the folder named username(replace username with appropriate username) exist if not, create it.

# mkdir username
# cd username
# cd example

5. If the directory “example” is not present, create it

6. Check for the file cp_jkmount.conf here, if it is not present, create it with the following contents

    JkMount /servlets/* ajp13
    JkMount /*.do ajp13
 </IfModule>
