IIS Experience Anyone?
Hi,
I'm still looking for anyone who has experience with the IIS plugin
(ISAPI_redirect.dll).
So far, nobody will admit to it. :-(
(I understand. I don't want to use IIS either, but a customer is
requiring it)

Consider the following scenario (my case once...):
* you don't know/use Windows at all
* you have a customer for j2ee app
* your customer wants to integrate app server the app runs on with
his IIS
* it's enough to be scared ;-)

Some remarks:
- Sometimes the dll does not run correctly due to access rights in windows.
The easiest way to avoid that is to use a windows installer of the dll
that
will handle all that for you. Version 1.2.15 provides an installer as far
as I remember (*.msi). Give it a try just to see if that helps.
- Different Windows versions handle ISAPI-DLL's differently. On Windows 2003
servers you explicitly have to permit the execution of a web extension
(in addition to the usual installation). See the IIS snap in.
- We were using IIS and Tomcat in almost every thinkable combination:
Windows2000,
XP, Vista, Windows Server 2003 with different version of IIS.
- did you configure workers.properties and uriworkermap.properties
correctly?

Hi! Yes, I have problems. The filter shows up correctly in IIS, and it
executes fine up to the point where it needs to talk to Tomcat. Then
nothing further on that page request appears in the log, and "The
specified module could not be found" is returned as the result of the
page request.
My previous messages to the group were submitted wth the subject: IIS
Plugin can't find Module ?? It seems like this is just about the only
symptom of failure that anyone reports.
Here's from my the last submission:
Because I'm getting Windows Active/X error messages in response to
servlet requests, it appears that my problem has to do with
environmental assumptions that are not satisfied by my version of IIS
5.0 on Windows XP. I've read that the version of IIS included with XP is
not the full version, so perhaps that's the problem. Who knows...
But, my reason for experimenting is that I need to use Tomcat servlets
on Unix servers from IIS 6.0 on a Windows 2003 system to which I do not
yet have access. And now, since I've struck out trying to experiment
with my desktop system, I'm curious about other people's experiences.
If you've tried to use ISAPI_redirect.dll v 1.2.20 (successfully, or
not), could you reply with a few words? For example, what Windows OS and
IIS versions we're you using?

I admit: we are using it for several customers. To make it
short: there is no reason to be scared.
Do you have any special problems?
