IIS - Tomcat connection problems

[Kees de Kooter]

One of my customers has the following setup:

- Windows 2003 server with IIS
- Tomcat 5.5.16
- JDK 1.5.0_08-b03
- isapi_redirector.dll 1.2.14

So IIS acts as a proxy to the tomcat application.

The isapi_redirect log shows a lot of these errors:


[Sun Sep 07 06:46:36 2008] [3524:1216] [error] jk_ajp_common.c (1953): (quelSearchEngineWorker) Connecting to tomcat failed. Tomcat is probably not started or is listening on the wrong port

[Sun Sep 07 06:46:36 2008] [3524:1216] [error] jk_isapi_plugin.c (1499): service() failed with http error 503



Looking familiar to any of you?

Updating the isapi_redirect dll to the latest version solved the problem...

Kees,

Do you know if this was a version mismatch problem, or a bug on either side of the connector?

I did a lot of digging in all related logfiles, but did not find a clue.

where did you find isapi_redirect dll?

[Kees de Kooter]

Here is a manual page for using Tomcat with IIS: http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc-archive/jk2/jk/iishowto.html

The dll can be obtained here: http://apache.dsmirror.nl/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win32/jk-1.2.26/

Dear All,

Just so you know, a new version of this connector is currently being tagged in the Tomcat repo. It should be released shortly. Maybe this is a good time to download and install the beta of the new release?

Here (http://tomcat.markmail.org/message/ceiowugaz6aqudh7?q=tagging+sunday+list:org%2Eapach e%2Etomcat%2Edev+from:rjung%40apache%2Eorg+order:r elevance) is a bit more detail.
