JK2 and IIS

[Pfingstl Gernot <ge...@stmk.gv.at>]

In JK2 docs (docs/jk2/installhowto.html#Installation) section IIS Installation says that I had to add a "serverRoot" string values to the registry which points to my tomcat installation. Why? I don't have my tomcat on the same machine as IIS runs. Had I to install tomcat twice? One on the iis machine and one on my real tomcat machine?

Thanks,
Gernot

You don't need the TC. The serverRoot can be any valid path that will
have logs and conf subfolders.
Of course you don't need that if you wish to use the native logger and
no shm for keeping status.
serverRoot enables you to easily port the config (workers2.properties)
from host to host or various TC versions.
Each ${serverRoot} statement will be replaced by that registry setting.
