apache - AJP Connector not working? (404 error) -

i'm trying connect apache webserver (2.4.10) tomcat 7, both located in 2 different vms. it's first time using tools. understood method check if connection working try access tomcat using url ip/instance instead of, if have tomcat on 8080 port, ip:8080/instance. however, everytime try that, 404 error returned apache. here's configuration:

on tomcat's vm, server.xml has line:

<connector port="8009" protocol="ajp/1.3" redirectport="8443 /> 

on apache's vm, have set files:

apache2.conf (in apache main folder)

i know can mess because tried following different guides , doing have working still 404 errors. how can have working? in advance.

for reasons, started working once tried (in desperation) implement load balancer without ajp connector working on single server, given beginning final goal. ultra happy.

at end wrote jkmount instructions in 000-default.conf file in sites-enabled, precisely in virtualhost< *:80> istruction. maybe needed in order work properly.
