Thread: SC6 Web Tier to Tomcat 4.1 & IIS 6 / Tomcat 5 & Apache 2 - Tips

I just finished deploying the new SC6 web tier to a configuration of Tomcat 4.1.x with IIS 6 as the Web Server.

To do the configuration I first referred to the document on Peregrine Support: SAS-W1D-YDKB - ServiceCenter 6: Deploying the Web Tier to Tomcat 4.1.30 and IIS 5.0

I followed the instructions to the letter. When completed everthing checked out ok, but it wasn't working. IIS 6 was not calling Tomcat.

After a long search on the web, I found 2 additional steps needed to get it running:

1. Set IIS6 to Run WWW Service in IIS 5.0 Isolation Mode
- In IIS Manager go to the "Web Sites" folder ( where the default web site resides ), right click and select "properties".
- Go the the "services" tab and enable the "Run WWW Service in IIS 5.0 Isolation Mode" checkbox

2. Allow ISAPI Extensions
- In IIS Manager, go to the "Web Service Extensions" folder and select "Allow" for the "All Unknown ISAPI extensions" item.

After this I rebooted the machine and everything worked as it should.
Now I can finish my Christmas shopping.
Have a great Holiday Season!

I found this article to be invaluable in getting IIS 6 and Tomcat 5 talking to each other:

Nice doc, but he asked for IIS, not Apache...

Guys,

Using the instructions given in this post, I got Tomcat 5 with IIS 6 to work. I can log in to SC and the menus are displayed real nice. The only problem is that the navigator panels are empty, both in the SST client and the WEB client. As soon as I switch back to the build-in Tomcat webserver (by adding ":8080" to the address presented in the address bar of IE), the navigator panels are populated as they should, even without loggin off and on. Removing the ":8080" from the address makes the navigator contents dissapear again.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Anko

Never mind. Got it. According to the docs, the workers2.propertiers file should contain (at least):

[uri:/sc/*.jsp]
info=Extension mapping

[uri:/sc/*.do]
info=Extension mapping

[uri:/sc/servlet/*]
info=Prefix mapping

What is missing seems to be:

[uri:/sc/cwc/*]
info=Prefix mapping

Cheers,

Anko

Does the above solved your problem? I am having the same problem but its the ToDo screen that I can't see. The navigator are displayed just fine.
