Hi, I finally found an answer to my problem, thanks to a few posts on the interenet. Here they mention the fact that NETWORK SERVICE needs WRITE access to the directory defined by the log_file key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache Software Foundation\Jakarta Isapi Redirector\1.0 in the registry: http://forums.iis.net/p/1150483/1874510.aspx
With that, I was finally able to see the behavior of redirecting to /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll. Thanks to an old mail post by Larry Isaacs back in 2002. My problem was that I had the isapi_redirect.dll defined in both the Default Website AND the Web Sites folder in IIS. As Larry explains here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg55430.html So the moral is: When you see something like ' Default redirection of /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll ' or ' [/jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll] is not a servlet url ' in the redirect log as if it is searching tomcat for that resource, then you have at least 2 redirect filters defined in IIS.

The isapi redirector program is supposed to allow me to connect to my server, and redirect my request to Tomcat, if the url matches a certain pattern. I have multiple sites configured in IIS, including: PleskControlPanel and Default Web Site. Default Web Site was previously configured with a jakarta virtual directory that allows the isapi redirector to work properly. When I try to access http://www.example.com/examples, I find the tomcat error: HTTP Status 404 - /examples/ I configured PleskControlPanel (port 8880, ssl port 8443) to use a second jakarta virtual directory. However, when I try to access http://www.example.com:8880/examples, I find the tomcat error: HTTP Status 404 - /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll Does anyone know why IIS would be passing the URI: /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll to Tomcat at that point? Is there a way to configure IIS so that /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll is resolved properly (as the filter, not the URI) and so that the next URI delivered to Tomcat is /examples/ ?
