I have installed an Apache HTTP Server in CentOS 7. After installation it runs successfully.
Then I tried to add the mod_jk module following these steps.
- I downloaded the Tomcat Connectors ziped sources file. I tried with v.1.2.35 (this version always worked) and v.1.2.42 (lastest version).
- I unziped the file.
- Inside $TOMCAT_CONNECTORS_UNZIPED_DIR/native I executed
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs && make
- I copied $TOMCAT_CONNECTORS_UNZIPED_DIR/native/apache-2.0/mod_jk.so to /etc/httpd/modules
- I changed the file's owner to root and file's permissions to 755.
- I added the file 10-mod_jk.conf to /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/ with this content
LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so
- I restarted Apache to apply changes.
After step 7, I got this:
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart httpd.service Job for httpd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status httpd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
Taking a look to the log, I got this:

I have done these steps many times and I never had a problem. I have repeated them carefully twice more with same result.
Any idea about what could be the problem?
Thanks!
== UPDATE ==
I use the steps explained in SELinux Preventing Apache Start as @Federico_Sierra said, but it is still failing. With the last comand I got this:
# ausearch -m avc -ts recent

But I have no idea about it means.
