Hi Christopher,

 

On a bit different note. I have been following your posts (or at least
trying to) throughout the year regarding all of the different
requirements/configurations for various apps that require a JSP engine.  We
have a number of the same apps as you:

 

MT 7.0.01 (7.1 soon)

Crystal Server XI

Kinetic Survey (Lite)

RKM

 

Out of those we are currently only using MT on IIS with SerletExec 5.0.0.10
and are looking to implement Crystal Server next. We have been planning on
removing IIS and using Tomcat for the web server and application server when
we move to MT 7.1 since Crystal Server is not supported with ServletExec.

 

In an email from you on 7/18/07 with the subject "Crystal Report Server XI
vs Business Objects Enterprise XI CMS & Tomcat question. (UNCLASSIFIED)" you
mentioned using IIS and .NET for Crystal Server and Tomcat for MT. That
sounds like an interesting solution but to make our setup more complicated
everything customer facing has to be over SSL/443 and require a PKI
certificate from the user before any access is granted. I am figuring that
will make using IIS and Tomcat on the same machine kind of hard.  Also the
idea of using separate Tomcat instances is interesting (apparently almost
necessary with MT and RKM) but then we are up against the requirement to use
port 443 again.

 

Is there some magical way to run different app servers on different ports
and pass all of the user interfaces through one main web server on port 443?

 

It looks like the packaged Tomcat 5.5.17 with MT will also run RKM and
Kinetic Survey, does this sound right? 

 

I haven't been able to find any place that states Crystal Server is
supported on Tomcat 5.5, only up to 5.0. Is the situation that there is
still no common application server for all of these products? 

 

I am really hoping to keep our server count to a minimum. Do I have any hope
of utilizing 1 server for all of these apps? Do you have any suggestions as
how to utilize all of these products with minimal servers (physical and
virtual)?

 

Thanks,

Jason

It is still bundling Tomcat 5.5.17, but you should use JRE 1.5.0_12 for all
things 7.1.  Beware the 7.1 mid-tier installer on Windows x64 - it is too
stupid to know that the Apache Tomcat install should go in the Program Files
(x86) directory on a fresh install, but it runs anyway.  This was not a
problem on 7.0.01.x

Can anybody out there tell me the version of Tomcat (web server and JSP
engine if they are different) that is bundled with MT 7.1?

 

Thanks,

Jason
