RE: Tomcat 5.0.18 with connector to IIS?

2004-02-06 Thread Richard Norman
The one on the Apache site has NEVER worked for me except the origional 
Connector. Search the list for the ISAPI Connecter 2 and you will find 
several notes on this. I have a IIS6  server running with the connector 
compiled by someone else and it works, the only problem is that the 
Connector virtual directory can not be in a seperate appdomain, but that is 
the only limitation I have found so far.

Let me know if more info or help is needed.

Also if the connector binary for download from Apache works nowm someone 
please correct me. I have never gotten it to work for me.

Has anyone got Tomcat 5.0.18 front-ended with IIS using a connector?

If so, which connector/version are you using.  Any config info and hints on 
how to set this up (the docs on connectors are pretty confusing sometimes) 
would be very much appreciated.

Please copy responses to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you could.

Many thanks!

ISAPI and the 1.0 keys are not created), create string values as follows
serverRoot (should equal tomcat home directory), extension_uri (http path to
ISAPI DLL file configured previously), log_file (path and filename where
logfile should be created), worker_file (path to workers.properties file),
worker_mount_file (path to uriworkermap.properties file), log_level (one of
4 levels, debug, info, error, or emerg)

*** In IIS ***
step13: Configure an ISAPI extension named anything you wish. As the
executable select the ISAPI redirector you wish (isapi_redirector2.dll or
isapi_redirect.dll).

step14: once complete, try to navigate to a JSP context you configured (such
as /admin or /jsp-examples)

 
Let me know if any of this helps you.

Really appreciate you all hang in there.

Windows 2003 Server
IIS 6.0.. (5.0 isolation mode)
j2sdk1.4.2_03
Jakarta Tomcat 5.0.16

Well I think I'm making progress here but I'm not there yet.

http://localhost:8080/jsp-examples/index.html and its links work fine.

http://localhost/jsp-examples/index.html and its links work fine and the IIS
log file indicates that /jakarta/isapi_redirector2 is being run on port 80
and gives a 200 0 0 status from the connection.

That all seems to be working.

I put a examples directory under c:\inetpub\wwwroot.
Copied the servlet examples (html) files from the servlet-examples directory
under tomcat_home.

http://localhost/examples/index.html

which works and I have access to the links click the hello world link and I
get the url

http://localhost/examples/servlet/HelloWorldExample
with
The page cannot be found or a 404 0 3 status message in the IIS log file.

The IIS log file also indicates that jakarta/isapi_redirector2.dll is not
being accessed or run at the time the link is clicked.

Where did I take the wrong turn.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Also, the ISAPI redirector that is prebuilt is not working properly...

I had to download the redirector from David Boner

The 2.0.2 version did not work at all. I was able to get IIS6 and JK2
working with the above version from David.

Never mind... I got an updated version and it works...

Thank You David Boyer ( 
http://web.bvu.edu/staff/david/index.jsp?section=software ) Just as a note, 
everyone BUILD from SOURCE. The 2.0.2 version would not connect at all. I 
updated to the version listed on David's site and it worked.

the original ISAPI worked on IIS6 as well, but I wanted to update to the 
latest connector and technology architecture.

My basic configuration is still the same as listed here...

RE: Why should I use Tomcat vs .NET?

2003-10-13 Thread Richard Norman
What portions of FPSE (FrontPage Server Extensions) requires registration? I 
have not run into that before.

So far my experience has been the oppsite. My job gets the MSDN Universal 
Subscription so VS is free along with all the platforms. In terms of going 
from ASP to ASP.NET, you have to change your thinking form the classical 
"script and go" method, to one of creating classes, methods and properties.

That is the main trick I have found. Both are interesting to me (JSP and 
.NET) but I find that in .NET there are certain things I can get done faster 
(probably also cause my job has purchased the MSDN Universal :-) ). You 
could also use #Develop, Eclipse (has a plugin for C#) or WebMatrix if you 
need free IDE tools. And then there's Mono (http://www.go-mono-org/ ) for a 
platform on *nix machines. It is not "final" but you can find out a lot 
about the platfdorm there too.

But you know it just depends on the skills of the developers you have and 
your immediate needs. If you need wide platform adoption and your developers 
are comfortable with Java, then Java is the way to go. .NET is just not 
there yet in the platform department. If you need to leverage a better 
(IMHO) webService platform, or need to get the most out of Windows machines 
quickly with people who had previous experience in VB, then .NET is better 
for you. Just depends on you overall environment.

Here (my job) people are mostly VB developers with a little C/C++ knowledge 
(the Perl guy left). I am probably one of the first well rounded programmers 
they hired in years (I've done C/C++, VB, JavaScript, some Java, a little 
Perl, and some batch programming). Pretty much sit me in front of a program, 
tell me what you need and give me the tools to do it, and I can get it done.

So for them .NET was the better move cause a lot of what they knew of VB was 
still there to an extent. Just some changes underneath and a much larger 
library to work with.

So good luck to you Eduardo, while not exactly what you would like, it maybe 
something you can learn from and incorporate into your toolset :-)

Richard Norman

P.S. - Please no flames, just answering the question honestly with my 
opinion. I do like Java, but it did have some little things that I just 
wondered why they did the way the did.

Eduardo,
A couple interesting points involves myself and my coworker. He has about 
ten years of VB programming experience. None of his code can be migrated to 
vb.net without major rewriting because there is no semblance of backward 
compatibility. It wouldn't be practical for the customer to pay him to 
convert the app to dot.net, so he's stuck in 1998. All the VB programmers 
have been screwed by Microsoft this way.
With me, I've been doing Java and perl for about 6 years. Because of the 
contracting environment I'm in, it looked like my work was going to dry up. 
An opportunity came along for me within the company. They wanted to do ASP 
2.0 web development because they had to meet a variety of government 
requirements and ASP had been approved for use. Thinking I was going to have 
to do that project, I checked into it. Firstly, the ASP code they were going 
to write is totally incompatible with ASP.net, so it was going down a dead 
path. To cover all the bases, I did some research into upgrading my copy of 
Visual C++ 6.0 to Visual Studio.net. MS wanted $450 for the upgrade. That's 
a lot for me to fork over to start over with a completely different system 
that has limited uses. Fortunately, I didn't have to go that route, but it 
came close.
Comparing that to continuing with Tomcat and Eclipse or NetBeans or JCreator 
(free version), I can't see why anyone would choose to go the dot.net route. 
MS has also done a powerplay on the folks that use Frontpage Extensions. The 
Frontpage 200x now requires that you subscribe to a service from Microsoft 
to enable important features of the product. It is a lot like extortion.
I like using the free products because I can dump any of them at any time 
without feeling guilty about wasting the company's money. Once you spend 
thousands to use a proprietary product, you may never be able to escape. I 
still have to support an ancient Developer 2000 product that can't be 
cost-effectively be migrated to a newer version and has all kinds of 
compatibility issues when used with newer products.

RE: IIS 5.1 and Tomcat 4

2003-09-23 Thread Richard Norman
The attached TXT file is what I used to get it to work for me. I wrote it 
step by step when I was configuring my server here.

I kept getting errors with the ISAPI_Redirector2.dll file, so I went back to 
the older version and it worked fine for me with Tomcat 5.0.12

The TXT file is a little sparse and not 100% cleaned up, but you should get 
the general idea.

Whenever I tried to use the ISAPI2 redirector, it would just come back with 
a Server connection or DNS error, but when I changed it to the older version 
of the ISAPI DLL, it worked fine.

See if this helps you at all.

Jon,

I think that the log is telling you just what it should. Tomcat looks for a
mapping of server name to servlet in web.xml. So it won't find one for
localhost or machine name but that's really not important. It will find
nothing for them and move on. What it should find and does is the mapping
from servlet name to servlet. So it seems to me that it is finding the
mapping correctly. The problem is that nothing is happening after that.
Have you looked at the IIS logs to see what they say? They should include
line for isapi_redirect or isapi_redirecto2.dll and SHOULD have a 200 as
server response, e.g.
POST /jakarta/isapi_redirector2.dll - 200 0 4096 690

When I was trying this it took me forever to get it to change from 400/500
to 200 I believe. Unfortunately this won't solve your problem but it may
move you further toward a solution.
Ken

There shouldn't be any path starting with /localhost. I'm visiting the
URL
http://localhost/mobilizer/mobilizer

but the localhost part is the servername, not the path.

This appears to be consistent with the log I get when I use the name of
the computer rather than localhost, eg:

[Tue Sep 23 10:40:11 2003]  [jk_uri_worker_map.c (456)]:
jk_uri_worker_map_t::map_uri_to_worker, done without a match
My guess is that it's something IIS is doing for the sake of virtual
hosting, but I wouldn't like to say for sure.
The /mobilizer/mobilizer path is the correct one - but I don't know why
it's then not getting any further than it is doing.

Re: escaping problems--ha!

2003-09-10 Thread Richard Norman
This is one I think I can answer... :-)

What you want to do is first escape the back slash, then escape the 
apostraphe...

so you want to have a string that looks like this: var name = '\\\'';

That should get what you are looking for. you may need to create a string 
parsing or regular expression routine to get what you are looking for.

My scenario involves a user who wishes to enter \' in an html input field.
I must then convert that to a javascript variable (for any number of
reasons).
However, when I attempt to escape backslashes then attempt to escape
apostrophes, I end up with a javascript error: Unterminated string constant.
I can see the source on my page has the javascript variable something like:
var name = '\\''.
What are the correct steps to correctly escape data such as \' or any number
of backslashes or apostrophes.
Thanks,
Derrick

JK2 Question...

2003-09-10 Thread Richard Norman
I have read the information and configured my server as specified at the 
following URL...

http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-connectors/jk2/doc/jk2/installhowto.html

The thing I think is going on is that the port is not open fully cause every 
time I try to connect to a JSP page from IIS, I get the "Can not find server 
or DNS Error" message. If I go directly to tomcat on the port I set up, 
everything works (4). in the startup sequence it says in the log file 
the following

*
INFO: Starting Coyote HTTP/1.1 on port 4
Sep 10, 2003 1:22:09 PM org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket init
INFO: JK2: ajp13 listening on /0.0.0.0:40100

Sep 10, 2003 1:22:09 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start
INFO: Server startup in 6797 ms
*

Here is my workers2.properties file
*
[channel.socket:localhost:40100]
port=40100
host=127.0.0.1
# define the worker
[ajp13:localhost:40100]
channel=channel.socket:localhost:40100
# Map the Tomcat examples webapp to the Web server uri space
[uri:/jsp-examples/*]
info=Map the whole webapp
*
Here is my jk2.properties file
*
# Set the desired handler list
handler.list=request,channelSocket
#
# Override the default port for the socketChannel
channelSocket.port=40100
channelSocket.address=127.0.0.1
request.tomcatAuthentication=true
*
and here is the connector entry in my server.xml file
*

   
*
Any ideas anyone?  THis is the last step to get everything working 100% for 
me...

RE: Tomcat 5.0.9 appBase and docBase questions...

2003-09-09 Thread Richard Norman
Thanks for the timely response.. I've been scratching my head over this for
the past day and a half thinking I am just not getting this right. Are there
any other active gotcha's I need to watch out for? I am using this for
testing and some "getting my feet wet" work in JSP 2.0.

By the way, is there any further documentation on the JK2 interface for IIS?
I am curious to see if there have been any improvements in speed or
manageability since Tomcat 4 was updated. 

Thanks again... Now I feel a little less silly.. ;-)

It is almost as if the appbase changes the context for the entire server and 
not just that one host entry. The funny thing is if I place a context entry, 
Tomcat will not even start. It is as though the change in drive is not 
allowed or something. Have I come across a bug or is this just beginner 
stupidity?

If I leave the appBase as the webapps folder, it all seems to work just 
fine. the Admin and Manager XML files are processed fine. As soon as I 
change the appBase or add an absolute path in the appBase or contex entry, I 
get errors...

Thanks for your time and help...
