Question. Does the host in the workers.properties file need to match the HOST name in the server.xml file (see below):
worker.scmisWorker.type=ajp13 worker.scmisWorker.host=scmis worker.scmisWorker.port=8009 <Host name="scmis" appBase="scmisapp" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="false" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> <Alias>scmisdev</Alias> <Alias>scmisdev.texashealth.org</Alias> </Host> Thank you. -----Original Message----- From: Savoy, Melinda Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 5:12 PM To: Tomcat Users List; Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: How can I get the user value in the request forwarded to my Tomcat in my Java app? Andre, First my apologies for forgetting my earlier setup within my Windows XP box and therefore as you say not learning what I had done previously. Second - this Windows 2003 server was already setup and the second host was created in order that the user could enter a URL of http://scmisdev and then get to the application which is how it has been working. In your comment: "It seems that you have not learned a lot, or forgotten what you previously learned. Why do you need this last "virtual directory" in IIS ? The "jakarta" virtual directory will already re-direct (or rather "proxy") all the calls to "/scmisdev/*" to Tomcat. You do not want IIS to go directly put its nose in the Tomcat directories. You want it to go through the isapi redirector for that, which you already do with the jakarta virtual directory setup." What do I put in the uriworkermap.properties file that redirects to where the JSP's are? The directory path in Tomcat as to where the app is located is: C:\Server\Tomcat 6.0\scmisapp\ROOT\WEB-INF You are correct that I'm probably mixing up 2 things but I'm trying retain all the info that you and Ranier have each given but sometimes it would appear to me to be confusing. Lastly, let me state again my apologies. It is NOT my intent to waste the time of you or anyone else on this list just trying to get some help. I will try again in the morning.

Why do you need this last "virtual directory" in IIS ? The "jakarta" virtual directory will already re-direct (or rather "proxy") all the calls to "/scmisdev/*" to Tomcat.

Ok, what does this error page look like ? Does it look like a Tomcat error page ? Melinda, it seems that you are mixing two issues (again) : - the first is in the basic setup of IIS+Tomcat, and how to set things up so that the URLs which you are interested in are actually redirected to Tomcat in the proper way. - the second is, once the first one is working properly, to set things up so that IIS authenticates users which request these URLs, and that the isapi redirector forwards this authentication to Tomcat (which it does, by default). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org The information contained in this message and any attachments is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed, and may contain information that is PRIVILEGED, CONFIDENTIAL, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
