how to connect tomcat to apache - 503 on the website via ajp

[007casper]

I am getting 503 on my website. I am trying to connect tomcat with apache. I tried several things. I cant seem to make it work.

I have enabled a2enmod
a2enmod proxy_ajp
a2enmod proxy
a2enmod proxy_http
a2enmod ssl

first error I was getting...

proxy:ajp 'client denied by server configuration'

I was getting forbidden on the browser, I played with apache settings, and checked...

grep -r 'Connector port="8009"' *

Then, I have added address="127.0.0.1" on tomcat6 server.xml

<Connector port="8009" address="127.0.0.1" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443"/>

cd /var/log/apache2 cat error.log

now, I am getting this error...

ps ax | grep httpd | wc -l
