BonCode AJP Connector 1.0rc ready - AJP from IIS to Tomcat
After close to a year of development and help of countless volunteers
version 1.0rc is finally available.
Many thanks to all the people that helped. This was done despite the
discouragement from the Apache foundation how nuts we were to even try to
improve this old horse.
We simply needed a better way to connect IIS and Tomcat, that addressed
issues that have emerged over the years. Just to name a few: easier setup,
better management, more throughput, etc.

As usual feedback is appreciated.

Sure thing here is the change log between 0.91 to 1
Version 0.9.2.2 Updates:
* Fix: gzip compression handling from servlets. Set correct content
encoding.
* Fix: install on IIS7 did not write setting file
* Add: Updated troubleshooting information in Manuals
Version 0.9.2.3 Updates:
* Fix: JSP response.sendRedirect() call uses HTTP 302 redirect. Would lead
to timeout.
* Fix: Specific issues with Jetbrains TeamCity application implementation
and protocol behavior (AJAX)
* Fix: Stop waiting on tomcat when redirect directive is given
* Fix: Handle Railo vs. tomcat native variances in File upload behavior
with and without redirects.
Version 0.9.2.4 Updates:
* Add: Installer update. Installation of .net framework feature as option
for windows 7 and windows 2008+
* Add: User friendly error messages when we cannot connect to Apache Tomcat
Version 0.9.2.5 Updates:
* Fix: separate AJP attributes from headers. All present optional http
attributes are transferred even if not processed by tomcat.
* Fix: Recognize misordered packets from Tomcats (out of order GET BODY
CHUNK) and provide proper response. This would result in blank screen.
* Add: add new setting to transfer optional header (x-tomcat-docroot) note
capitalization
* Add: automatically fix wrong content-length declaration if content is
missing. Fill in empty characters where content is missing. This is not
correct but will continue browser processing.
* Fix: Use of System Timer would leak memory when thread was destroyed
* Fix: AJP protocol header server and port designations send to servlet
container were incorrect when IIS and tomcat were remoted.
* Add: HTTP header Blacklist and Whitelist options in settings file
* Fix: Correct flush protocol detection problem so HTTP flushes can be
detected and spooled to browser.
Version 0.9.2.6 Updates:
* Fix: correct transfer of non-standard headers without the http prefix
added by IIS
* Fix: compatibility with Axis1 projects
* Add: no longer force conversion of text to UTF8. Will pass directly
content as is to browser from tomcat regardless of content-type declaration.
* Add: Setting [ForceSecureSession] to force secure session via SSL. Will
automatically exchange secure session cookies and force all communication
over SSL to the Webserver.
* Add: Settings for timeout tcp/ip connections are exposed and can be
changed by user.
Version 0.9.2.7 Updates:
* Add: Improve http flush detection, add network stream behavior in
addition to timer.
* Fix: Zero content tomcat packages would cause display of error message in
browser.
* Fix: ignore binary transfers that contain AJP protocol magic markers
would lead to empty screen.
Version 0.9.2.8 Updates:
* Fix: extend timeout for socket so that longer timeouts in IIS Application
Pool do not result in closed socket errors
* Add: automatic translation of client IPs to account for intermediaries
(load balancers and proxies), e.g. HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR to REMOTE_ADDR
automatic rewrite
* Add: Strong signing of assemblies so project can be placed in GAC (Global
Assembly Cache)
Version 0.9.2.9 Updates:
* Add: setting to show suppressed headers (AllowEmptyHeaders). The
connectors skips headers that do not have data to speed processing. Set to
true to send empty headers as well.
* Add: setting to send path info in alternate http header (PathInfoHeader).
This is to bypass tomcat bug with AJP path-info transfer.
* Fix: Remove default for ResolveRemoteAddrFrom (HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR).
Will now need to be explicitly set to be enabled.
Version 1.0rc Updates:
* Add: installer deploy in GAC mode
* Add: installer configure tomcat server.xml if on same server
The only difference between 1rc and 1 will be scripted deployment options
for the installer (so you put it on many servers easily etc.).
Best,
Bilal
