IIS is only useful if you’re serving up a lot of static pages – Remedy isn’t like that, Tomcat is doing most of the work!
Can you re-install Mid-Tier without selecting IIS? It will install its own copy of Tomcat if you don’t have one already installed (much the easiest option!). You’ll probably need to keep Tomcat on port 8080 as your IIS installation is presumably listening on 80.

I did notice something though. IIS has an application defined in it, but not an ISAPI filter. The application has the right directory name in it, but it says the directory is wrong when I test it, even though it is correct. I added the ISAPI filter for Jakarta but that didn't help. Kind of stuck at this point....

Obviously, something is wrong with it. But I've been through the entire manual configuration and I can't see anything obvious that's wrong.

If Tomcat is listening on that port just http://localhost:8080 should bring up a Tomcat “home” page Check the Tomcat server.xml to see what Tomcat is configured for.

I can't get Tomcat to work with IIS on Windows Server 2008 R2. This is with a completely vanilla install of Remedy ARS 8.1 using SQL server. The install went fine, there was no problem I could see. I've uninstalled and re-installed the mid-tier several times. I've checked all of the connectors I could find on the tomcat side and the virtual directory stuff on the IIS side. The jakarta virtual directory exists, and all of the registry settings and file configurations look right. IIS responds to normal requests - but any request to the virtual directory just doesn't work. The default URL to configure the MT is this: http://localhost:8080/arsys/shared/config/config.jsp Localhost resolves correctly to the local machine - for kicks I have tried the actual machine name too, with the same results. I feel like I am missing something really obvious here...but I haven't worked with Windows/IIS in ages. I know this is vague...but... thoughts? B. _____ No virus found in this message.
