Greetings
List,
System information
for starters:
Database: MS SQL
Server 2000 SP4 on Windows Server 2003
Application: Remedy
6.3 on Windows Server 2003
Web: MidTier 6.3 on
Windows Server 2003 with IIS6 and Servlet Exec.
Now, onto the
"problem".
I've gleemed from
the list that the Win2K3/IIS6/MidTier/ServletExec combination is
rather slow. I've noticed some sluggishness myself.
I've also seen
people mention that an Apache/Tomcat combination is quicker.
Therefore, I've
stood up a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 3 server with Apache and
Tomcat. Furthermore, I've installed MidTier 7 rather than 6.3 and pointed
the install to the Application server listed above.
My questions
are:
1.) Will MT7 work
with ARS 6.3?
2.) Given that the
above answer is "yes", what caveats do I need to know to get MT working
correctly with Apache/Tomcat?
I know Apache is
working as I can see the standard test page when accessing it from another
box. The same goes for Tomcat.
As far as
installation is concerned, apache is at /etc/httpd and tomcat is (unfortunately
at this time) is in a user's directory
/home/<user>/apache-tomcat-<version>
MidTier is installed
at /usr/ar/mid-tier.
These are all of the
configuration settings I passed into the MT7 installer script, which finished
without errors.
Any special
configurations I need to make to MidTier, Apache, Tomcat, or all of the
above?
When I attempt to
access (from the RHEL box) http://localhost/arsys/config/config.jsp
as annotated in the documentation, I get a page not found.
I made a symbolic
link in /var/www/http/ and pointed it to the MT install home directory and when
I visit the page above, I see the JSP script in the browser
window.
Thanks,
//SIGNED//
