how do i disable mod_proxy from apache?

Question

I have a CentOS running Apache Tomcat, I would like to replace mod_proxy by mod_jk, I can see with httpd -l that these modules are loaded:

 mod_proxy_connect.c
 mod_proxy_ftp.c
 mod_proxy_http.c
 mod_proxy_scgi.c
 mod_proxy_ajp.c
 mod_proxy_balancer.c

How do I disable mod_proxy from Apache Tomcat?

Thanks!

Solution

You should be able to disable mod_proxy by not loading it in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Comment out the following lines in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_ftp_module modules/mod_proxy_ftp.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module modules/mod_proxy_connect.so

and so on, for each module you want disabled.

and check the module is not being loaded elsewhere in /etc/httpd/conf.d/*
