Re: Tomcat and IIS

[Chris Pratt]

Unfortunately Microsoft disagrees with you.  They don't allow that tight an integration with IIS.  Most programmers must choose between Servlets/JSP and ASP before starting their project and pretty much stick with the technology that has been chosen.  The ability to mix ASP and JSP on a single page, or in a session integrated application just isn't there, and Microsoft isn't likely to add that support any time soon.   (*Chris*) ----- Original Message ----- From: Luca Ventura To: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.

An application that doesn't use session isn't very useful....   I think the ISAPI filter should convert IIS sessions in Apache sessions and vice-versa... but I am not sure and anyway I don't know how to configure it properly to do this.   Let me know if you have any idea.   Regards,                                  Luca -----Messaggio originale----- Da: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.

So I can support ASP pages thanks IIS and Servlets/JSP thanks to Tomcat. All works well if I don't use sessions. In fact if I create a session (object) when the user is in a JSP page or in a servlet, and then I insert information in it (using setAttribute() method of HttpSession class) , the session object just created is not visible from an ASP page. The same thing happens if I create the session in an ASP page: the session will not visible in a JSP page. It seems that IIS and Tomcat can't exchange session information between them...why?   I hope someone can help me.   Thanks in advance!                                        Luca
