Hi Tony,

the Tomcat project has a sub project called Tomcat Connectors or simply JK. It produces web server plugins to connect the most important web servers directly to Tomcat via a special protocol named AJP. Tomcat has an incoming AJP connector built-in.

The Tomcat connectors include Apache httpd modules as well as an IIS ISAPI plugin and a Netscape/Sun NSAPI plugin.

So you would need to download

http://tomcat.apache.org/download-connectors.cgi

an appropriate binary of the IIS plugin, configure and include the plugin correctly for your IIS to establish a reverse proxy function for your IIS. The most recent version of the plugin is 1.2.25.

The Tomcat connectors website

http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/

contains documentation. The IIS plugin documentation might not be the best part of it, but in case you get stuck, you can post more specific questions to this list.

I assume, that by "Apache" in your post you always meant Tomcat. If you meant Apache HTTPD web server, then I might have not completely understood your actual or planned setup.

Regards,

Rainer

Hi,

Scenario: we purchased a product written in Java to integrate into our
reporting tool.  Our setup is such that our web application is written
in .NET and hosted on a web farm using IIS (5 or 6 depending on the
environment).  The product we purchased runs under Apache Tomcat/5.5.23
using 1.5.0_12-b04.  The product is integrated into our web portal using
frames and sending URL requests to Apache.  We are running into issues
with javascript code from the product generating errors for what I
suspect may be related to crossing domains (our web site and the Apache
server).  I figure I can resolve this by generating a proxy on the IIS
server to handle the request to the Apache server.

My question is does anyone have any pointers on how to setup this type
of proxy?

Thanks,
Tony
