First, Tomcat must be started before you begin requesting
JSP/servlets. Otherwise, you will get a 500 (Internal Server) error. It
doesn't matter, however if you stop and start Tomcat again without starting
IIS - the filter can deal with it.
Second, it sounds like you have the ISAPI debugging set pretty high.
This is probably good for production but not debugging. I would suggest
changing the debugging level to DEBUG in the registry and then restart IIS
(the process, not instance)
Lastly, if you are getting the IIS username/password prompt then its
because you have restricted access to the virtual directory. Check your
directory permissions in both the NT File Explorer and the IIS console - you
must have public (anonymous) execute permissions for things to work.
