RE: IIS - jsp file download on port 80 - resolved

[Jeffrey Polaski <jp...@rgs.uci.edu>]

Thanks for the help so far... I finally got it to work! Yea!

[Background: I'm running NT sp6 with IIS , Tomcat 4.0.4
After following the instructions at:
http://www.getnet.net/~rbarr/TomcatOnIIS/ Tomcat worked fine on port 8080.
When I'd try to access a .jsp file through IIS on port 80 I would get a
"file download" dialog box, instead of being served up a piping hot .jsp
file. The fix is as follows...]

1.) First I added the Application Mapping for .jsp files so IIS would
recognize them:
	Application mapping for .jsp's to isapi_redirector.dll. 

	IIS Management Console -> <computer name> -> properties -> master
properties(for WWW Service) -> edit -> home Directory -> Configuration ->
App Mappings -> Add
	
	Executable: D:\Tomcat4.0\native\isapi_redirector.dll
	Extension: .jsp
	I left the defaults as they were:
		"Script Engine" - Checked
		"Check that file Exists" - Unchecked

It still didn't work, but I was getting closer! When I would connect to
/home/jeff/fruit.jsp I would get a "page cannot be displayed" message.
Tomcat was still working fine, though on port 8080 at /home/jeff/fruit.jsp

The final change was to switch Tomcat to run on port 80. I changed
port="8080" to port="80" in the "non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector" in the
server.xml file. It's at about line 54 in the default server.xml file. 

Changed to:
    <Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
               port="80" 
               minProcessors="5" 
               maxProcessors="75"
               enableLookups="true" 
               redirectPort="8443"
               acceptCount="10" 
               debug="0" 
               connectionTimeout="60000"/>

In case it's useful to anyone, I included my Tomcat configuration files. 

Again, thank you for you help!

Try adding a application mapping in your IIS console.
(IIS console --> Home Directory --> Configuration App
Mapping), I'm using IIS 5.0 in win2k professional.
In this console add the .jsp entension  and map it to
isapi_redirect(or).dll where ever it is stored. That
should work. Also, check to see if your web
application has script and executable access.
