ContextManager in Tomcat 5.5?
I'm trying to figure out ways of running Tomcat behind IIS, and area
where documentation is very lacking :/
I found the IISConfig directive here at:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/catalina/docs/api/org/apache/jk/config/IISConfig.html
it says:
Generates automatic IIS isapi_redirect configurations based on the
Tomcat server.xml settings and the war contexts initialized during
startup.
This config interceptor is enabled by inserting an IISConfig element
in the <ContextManager> tag body inside the server.xml file like so:
< ContextManager ... >
...
<IISConfig options />
...
< /ContextManager >
...but I have no ContextManager tag in my server.xml and searching the
list and tomcat docs hasn't pointed to what happened to it. Where do
I need to place the IISConfig tag?
Thanks,
Mike

I guess that Javadocs never got updated when this came over from Tomcat 3.3
;-).
The simplest is to use:
<Engine>
<IISConfig .... />
......
</Engine>

Yes, I've seen those but they are Tomcat 4 docs. Tomcat 5 does have
the IISConfig still, but it has been moved to
org.apache.jk.config.IISConfig and the javadocs talk of a <IISConfig>
tag that I can't find in Tomcat 5.5 Docs. Are the javadocs wrong, and
this class should be configured as a Listener? The current version of
the IIS doc (http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/howto/iis.html)
makes no mention of IISConfig, so I'm trying to figure out what the
changes were beyond moving the class.

I'm sorry, I guess I wasn't clear... I already have IIS connecting to
Tomcat; I'm trying now to auto config IIS (uriworkermap.properties)
from tomcat.

RE: ContextManager in Tomcat 5.5?

In summary:
1) Edit the isapi_reg file (part of Tomcat or make your own) to and replace
$<tomcat_home> with the local path (ie.
d:\test\t4\webapps\tomCat_webApp_subfolder...)
2) Run that reg file.
3) Create a virtual folder in your root website named
"tomCat_webApp_subfolder", point it to the tomcat webapp subfolder. Default
security.
4) Create a virtual folder named jakarta and point it to the bin directory
with the isapi_redirect dll file in it. Give this item execute rights.
5) For 2003 only, add a web service called 'jakarta', set it to allow and
point it to the isapi dll above.
6) For 2003 only, add the mime types (.class, .properties, .tmp) to the
virtual or web folder.
7) Restart the IIS admin service.
As a side note (resolved last week here) for additional servlets under IIS:
These are two files located in (or somewhere else if you changed the
isapi_redirect reg file)
\$TomcatRoot$\WEB-INF\config\jk\iis\
uriworkermap.properties
workers.properties
In the uriworkermap.properties file you add your custom servlets.
In example (/virtualRoot/pathToServlet/servletName/=workerThread):
/webapp_subfolder/servlets/yourCustomServlet=$(default.worker)
or (for a more generic approach)
/webapp_subfolder/servlets/*=main
If you were hosting multiple virtual containers all using the same servlets
or working in the root containers you would create and edit these two files
in the $tomcatHome$\conf\ folder.
This is above and beyond installing the servlet itself in Tomcat, copying
any files over and editing the web.xml file.
