I am having difficulty defining a correct RewriteRule to forward requests to an application running in tomcat. I have apache with mod_rewrite enabled as well as tomcat setup with an application mounted with mod_jk. Without a virtual host, I can browse to the following url without issue. (context being the application running in tomcat)

http://www.domain.com/context

How do I configure the RewriteRule to pass requests from domain.com to the application running in tomcat.

http://www.domain.com --> http://www.domain.com/context

Here is what my current virtual host file looks like

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName www.domain.com

        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
                RewriteEngine On
                RewriteRule \/$ /context [L]
        </Directory>

        <Directory /var/www/html/context/>
                Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
                AllowOverride None
                Order allow,deny                                         
                allow from all                                           
        </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

This will pass the request from domain.com to a directory named context in /var/www/html. How do I override the default apache setup to pass the request to the application running in tomcat?

Thanks in advance for your help.
