how to force apache-2.x to redirect all traffic to port 443?

[Matthew Carpenter]

So in other words, Apache is serving on port 80 and 443 and handing off servlet and jsp requests to Tomcat, correct?  This means that Apache's docroot should still apply.  I have more experience using the WARP connectors between Apache and Tomcat, the mod_jk is rather antique.  So I'm not sure if mod_jk works the exact same way, but Apache has configuration added (often it's an automated config when Apache and Tomcat startup) that basically says:

"if the URL looks like either '/servlet/*' or '*.jsp' let Tomcat handle it"

Do you see that anywhere?  Either way, if you're using some connector to hand off to Tomcat, Apache is running and serving the rest of the content from somewhere.
