Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll
Here it is the whole description of my needs (in my posts I have reported just a part of the problem) and the solution I have found (also thanks to your suggestion): Problem I have a Win 2003 server and I want to run on it several web apps of different customers, each one responding to a different URL. Some of them are written in ASP (and then running under IIS 6) and other ones in Java (running under Tomcat 6). I need that all my web apps can be riched by port 80. Solution Since both IIS and Tomcat cannot be listening on port 80 at the same time, I have thought to leave IIS on port 80 and redirect Java calls to Tomcat using isapi_redirect.dll. 1 - Under Tomcat, I have created a specific virtual host www.teamfarnesevini.it with the same name and alias of my URL and context pointing to my application (TeamFarneseVini under Tomcat 6.0\work\Catalina\www.teamfarnesevini.it\TeamFarneseVini) that has been deployed under this virtual host (here is its definition in server.xml) Host name=localhost appBase=webapps unpackWARs=false autoDeploy=false xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false /Host Host name=www.teamfarnesevini.it appBase=webapps unpackWARs=false autoDeploy=false xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=false Context path= docBase=TeamFarneseVini/ Aliaswww.teamfarnesevini.it/Alias /Host 2 - Under IIS I have configured the dll and the web site teamfarnesevini.it pointing to the phisical dir of my application as shown in http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/iis.html 3 - I have created the worker 4 - In the uriworkermap.properties I have added the following lines: /TeamFarneseVini=ajp13 /TeamFarneseVini/*.jsp=ajp13 /TeamFarneseVini/*.do=ajp13 /*.*=ajp13 Now all seems to work correctly, but if you have a simplest solution I would be very happy! In particular, I don't think that the last directive in uriworkermap /*.*=ajp13 is very clear... but without it it doesn't work!

Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll
Well, I need to install on the same physical machine multiple application running under Tomcat, let's say - MyApp1 - URL www.myapp1.it - MyApp2 - URL www.myapp2.it What I need is that both application can be launched simply asking for respectively www.myapp1.it and www.myapp2.it using port 80. I've tried to obtain this connecting IIS with Tomcat, but maybe I can use Virtual Hosting. Could you please explain me how to do it?

Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll
I've done this many times. First you need to configure IIS to handle host headers. You can do this one of two ways. You can (a) create multiple virtual sites in IIS or (b) use an ISAPI redirector to simulate virtual hosts. I recommend option (a). Next you have to decide if you can afford to have all of your tomcat apps down when you need to take tomcat offline. If you can then you can run one instance of Tomcat and make use of rewrite rules (uriworkermap.properties file). If you can't then you'll need multiple instances of Tomcat. The way I configured my intranet applications was to create multiple virtual hosts in IIS (and configured each with the tomcat connector). Each connected to the same one instance of Tomcat. I use a isapi_redirect.properties file instead of the registry for configuration. I then use the uriworkermap.properties file to handle mapping the IIS virtual host to the tomcat application. Unfortunately I don't have access at the moment to my uriworkermap.properties, but I'll see if I can't come up with a sample for you. Hope this gets you started. -Original Message- From: mirkocal mirko.cala...@gmail.com To : users@tomcat.apache.org Sent: Tue Mar 16 8:18:08 2010 Subject: Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll Well, I need to install on the same physical machine multiple application running under Tomcat, let's say - MyApp1 - URL www.myapp1.it - MyApp2 - URL www.myapp2.it What I need is that both application can be launched simply asking for respectively www.myapp1.it and www.myapp2.it using port 80.

Yes, my error, I just surmised that since he was using IIS with the Tomcat connector that he did in fact have a reason for using it. If that is not the case, then you are correct. The desired result can be achieved by disabling or removing IIS and reconfiguring Tomcat to respond on port 80 and configure virtual hosts. -Original Message- From: Caldarale, Charles R chuck.caldar...@unisys.com To : Tomcat Users List users@tomcat.apache.org Sent: Tue Mar 16 9:26:19 2010 Subject: Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll From: Electronjockey [mailto:electronjoc...@hotmail.com] Subject: Re: Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll First you need to configure IIS to handle host headers.

Problem redirecting requests from IIS to Tomcat by isapi_redirect.dll
Hi, I'm trying to redirect requests from IIS 6 to Tomcat 6. I've followed the instructions reported in the official Tomcat documentation: http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/webserver_howto/iis.html http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/generic_howto/workers.html http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/uriworkermap.html In particular, I've created: - the required registry key - the web app MyApp under Tomcat - the web site MyApp under IIS containing the virtual directory MyApp pointing to the fisical directory of the Tomcat web app (further than the jakarta virtual dir) with host header value www.myapp.it and ISAPI filter as shown in the docs I'm using isapi_redirect.dll ver. 1.2.30, the operating system is Win 2003. Now, asking for www.myapp.it I am only redirected on Tomcat main page, but MyApp is not started. To access it, I have to ask for www.myapp.it/MyApp but what I want is to start the application asking simply for www.myapp.it. Any suggest is appriciated!!! thanks in advance Mirko -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Problem-redirecting-requests-from-IIS-to-Tomcat-by-isapi_redirect.dll-tp27893887p27893887.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Try accessing http://www.myapp.it/MyApp/WEB-INF/web.xml. If it works, then something is wrong, because Tomcat (for security reasons) would never show you this file. Basically, you should have only the jakarta virtual dir, and it will work for all your Tomcat webapps. Only in some special cases, you do need to add MyApp, but then you should be really careful.

Now, asking for www.myapp.it I am only redirected on Tomcat main page That is as it should be, with the standard installation. , but MyApp is not started. To access it, I have to ask for www.myapp.it/MyApp That is also normal. but what I want is to start the application asking simply for www.myapp.it. This is a different issue. For that to work, you need to make your app be the Tomcat default application (which is named ROOT (in capitals)).

See here : http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo #39 If you really need to publish the webapp /MyApp under a different path than the one it is deployed in Tomcat, you could play around with the rewrite feature of the isapi redirector. Look for the word rewrite on the page http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/iis.html Warning: it will only rewrite request URLs, not Redirect URLs, Cookie paths etc. If you can put the app into the root context as suggested by André, it will be easier.
