Thanks Adam, I haven't had to wrestle with this yet but I know it's waiting for me down the line.

FYI, For future reference, I have posted a resources page for configuring IIS 6.0 with Tomcat on the web: http://www.rit.edu/~ack5504/tomcat-iis6-howto/tomcat_iis6_resources.html It offers the suggestions of this thread, but in more detail and I hope people will find it useful down the road.

With some good suggestions of Matt Hall-Smith of Pauaware Information Architects (and [disappointment]no suggestions from the Tomcat Users List[/disappointment]) I have been able to get IIS 6.0 to work with Tomcat. My working setup consists of IIS 6.0 running under Windows 2003 Small Business Server talking to Tomcat 4.1.27 via Tomcat Web Server Connector JK 1.2.5. The various registry settings and configuration files are setup the "standard way" described in the numerous online tutorials for setting up IIS to work with Tomcat. (One, for instance, is located at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/tomcat-iis-howto.html). The one special extra step that needs to be taken in addition the "standard steps" outlined in those online tutorials to get things to work under IIS 6.0. This extra step is to turn on "IIS 5.0 Isolation mode." (In the management console go to: Web Site Properties -> Service -> Isolation Mode). I imagine that turning on this "isolation mode" disables some of the additional functionality added to IIS in the 5 -> 6 upgrade, but I don't know all the ins and outs of what's new in IIS 6, so I'm not in a position to further comment on that. Matt Hall-Smith also discussed that the isapi_redirector2.dll of the JK2 distribution can be specially registered with IIS 6.0 (see IIS 6.0's online help) which creates a configuration which "works" but doesn't seem stable, as servletinputstream corruptions were experienced in large posts made to his servlets. I have not experimented with this configuration, but should someone need to JK2 or not have their IIS 6.0 in "IIS 5.0 Isolation Mode" they could experiment with that setup. Hopefully as the user base of IIS 6.0 continues to grow as people move to Windows 2003, the demand for a stable JK connector to work with an "out of the box" IIS 6.0 will bring about a new version of the JK connector. Until then, I hope this e-mail thread can help some folks out. Regards.

I'm trying to move an installation of Tomcat 4.1.27 and IIS from a Windows XP box running IIS 5.1 to a Windows 2003 Small Business Server box running an integrated version of IIS 6.0. I am running into problems because I can not get the ISAPI Filter (DLL) to load. The arrow is always red and down (never green and up) and the service log shows that the filter fails to lead each time I restart IIS. I am using identical /conf files and registry settings as my *working* IIS 5.1/XP setup. (And that setup is based on the general setup guide for the IIS connector on the jakarta.apache.org site.) So, I don't believe my configuration is to blame. I have also tried using both the JK 1.2 and JK 2.0 connectors. I've also tried disabling all the other ISAPI Filters that were present by default with the Win2k3 installation. In my search for advice on the web, I found a few folks asking for help with different aspects of *working* IIS 6.0 configurations, so I assume that with the right tinkering, it is possible to get the existing connectors to work with IIS 6.0. If anyone has any tips on getting a connector to work under IIS 6.0, I would be most appreciative. Thanks.
