2 - questions (just because I'm not knowledgeable about IP address or TCP/IP ports etc or networking functionality).
1. Before moving to IIS, the Tomcat server was setup on port 80 but because IIS uses port 80 the Tomcat server in the server.xml was changed to 8080. Could this be the problem on why I'm getting the HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to server configuration. Internet Information Services (IIS)? 2. Per Andre, " So now the isapi redirector module knows that in order to reach this Tomcat and pass the browser request to it, it need to establish a TCP/IP connection to localhost on port 8009, and format the request according to the specicifications of the AJP/1.3 protocol. This protocol is a bit different from HTTP, so the /format/ in which the isapi redirector passes the request to the Tomcat server is different from the original HTTP request, but the /content/ of the request is the same." If the network I'm on does NOT recognize this port 8009 would that be contributing to the HTTP Error 401.2? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: André Warnier [mailto:a...@ice-sa.com] Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2010 4:22 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: How can I get the user value in the request forwarded to my Tomcat in my Java app? Hi. Now we're cooking ! But by the way, now this is also OT for this list, because your problem now seems to be between the browser and the webserver. First, please do the following : using Google, find the the IE plugin named "Fiddler 2" and install it in your IE browser. That is a plugin which will allow you to view all the exchanges between the browser and the server (headers, errors, contents etc..). Second, check in the IE options that it is really allowed to use "Integrated Windows Authentication". That is somewhere in the long list of extended options. If you receive a login dialog when you try to access a resource under IIS, it is because either one of these conditions : - the IIS server requests the browser to authenticate using a specific method (e.g. NTLM), but the browser is not set up to do this and is trying a Basic authentication. - the version of NTLM required by the server and the one supported by the workstation are not compatible - your workstation is not logged into the same domain as the server - your workstation does not recognise the server as a "trusted" server Basically, if Integrated Windows Authentication was working, you should never see this login popup. It should all happen automatically behind the scenes.
