RE: Win2003 IIS6 ISAPI filter problem

[Nick Tatham <ni...@peramon.com>]

I posted this thread back in June-03 as I was having problems making the ISAPI redirector work under IIS 6 on Windows 2003. Now thanks entirely to Andrew Duey of TerraScan Inc., I now have this working.

If you are using IIS V6, which ships with Windows Server 2003, you must allow the Web Service Extension to operate. Earlier versions of IIS did not require this step. 

Using the IIS Internet Services Manager, click on the Web Services Extensions item in the left hand pane. In the right hand pane add a new Web Service Extension called, say, Tomcat ISAPI and browse and set the required file for this extension to the isapi_redirect.dll and set the status to allowed. Then restart IIS.

It appears that no changes are needed to the standard Tomcat ISAPI redirector for this version of IIS.

I hope this helps someone else.

Howto : how to set context specific attributes when using 'war' files

[Detlef Brendle <de...@canoo.com>]

Hi all,

I need to a special treatment of symbolic links as mentioned within this
mailinglist before.

***************
 <Context path="/myApp" docBase="myApp" debug="0">
       <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext"
allowLinking="true"  />
   </Context>
***************

This works fine when defining webApps within the server.xml file.

I would like to drop a 'war' file in the webapps/ dir of the tomcat
instance.
But how do I then define this <resource> element ?

Can I define it in the WEB-INF/web.xml file ?



thanks for your help,

detlef

Excellent.  Thank you for posting this, many IIS users have posted to 
the list trying to get the redirector to work with IIS 6.
