http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30286 JK2 ISAPI registry settings serverRoot required Summary: JK2 ISAPI registry settings serverRoot required Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.27 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: Other Component: Native:JK AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When installing JK2 on the Webserver, it is documented that the following registry entry is mandatory: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\Jakarta Isapi Redirector\2.0\serverRoot" "...Add a string value with the name serverRoot and a value which is a full path to your Tomcat installation (for example c:\jakarta-tomcat ) ..." The code proofs this and, even worse, when the entry is omitted, the JK-Filter seems up, doesn't write any log anywhere and is not working. The Problem is, when the webserver and the Tomcat are on different machines and they are communicating via Sockets (AJP13), which is quite common for large, clustered environments, there IS NO tomcat on the webserver-side, so not path can be entered there. Setting this key to any crap string value will cure the problem. This key really shouldn't be mandatory. Also the documentation should at least mention that there are other setup enviros than inprocess-mode and TC/Webserver on same machine, or, even better, have an extra section for that. kind regards...
