Is it possible to use JSP on Microsoft IIS? And if so, how do I do it? Ladyhawk. [idea]

This is really getting to be tiresome. JWS is not a "Webserver" . It is a "Java Server" developed by Sun and as such it is an integrated server that will run servlets (i.e. it HAS an application server as part of its architecture).

I challenge you to show me a single site that is running a "Web server", i.e. an application design only to serve static content like Apache or IIS that is running jsps. If they serve jsps, they have an application server running that bridges to the webserver (i.e. the web server handles most/all static content and requests for dynamic content are proxied back to the application server). I should know, I'VE been running an major ecommerce site that has been doing this for the past 3 years using IIS and Weblogic.

Clearly you have not done any research on this nor do you understand the applications that you are running. Why don't you check out THIS link for information about your JWS:


Maybe you ought to check out these as well:


 
Sir,

you are again taking me wrong.What I was saying was that ASP pages can run on IIS, but when you need to run JSPs on IIS, you need to integrate some app. server thats it!!!!!
 
Clearly you did not read your own posts because you said "servlets run on Web Servers alone". However, meadandale is right, this is getting old.

Sorry for being trolled, I couldn't help it :).
 
Well, I dont really have any intentions to get into any kind of arguments, but I would just like to copy and paste my message once again.....

"You are correct that JSPs compile into Servlets, but sorry to say, but servlets run on Web Servers alone also.

Ofcourse both can run on Application Servers, as Kodark just mentioned above that all application servers are web servers too, hence they can run on an Application Server
"

I NEVER SAID THAT "SERVLETS RUN ON WEB SERVER ALONE!!!!

 
Sorry to bring this issue up once more...

<snip>but sorry to say, but servlets run on Web Servers alone also.</snip>

<snip>I NEVER SAID THAT &quot;SERVLETS RUN ON WEB SERVER ALONE!!!!</snip>

What are you saying then?

-----------------------
Can't you run servlets as CGI programs or does that still require a App Server? Mike Wills

Dear Folks:

As a related issue, I also want to use Tomcat and IIS on the same machine. My question pertains to the more basic questions involved:

1) I understand and the literature tells me that ASP and JSP are indeed analogous, while ASP teathers you to the MS Platform. What are the basic requirements for the Java code portion of the JSP/Java Bean pairing? Does the bean portion consist of a basic Java class while the JSP portion accesses the Java Bean Object, much like the VBScript Create Object/ActiveX pair?

2) As a more technical question, should the Java Bean portion when parsing data from the HTTP Request ( similar to the Request.Form /Request.QueryString, etc in VBScript ) be written as if the Java code ( minus the socket opening, closing ) were handling the byte stream from/to the client alone? Should my personal code library contain a HTTP Request parsing bean for most JSP Projects?

3) Should a person remove IIS and run Tomcat for all Web Apps? And thereby take over the port 80?

4) Has anyone succesfully installed the isapi redirector on WINNT 4.0 for Tomcat for the latest release? If so, how does this compare to installing other interpreters ( Perl, PHP, Javascript, VBscript , C++ etc ) on Tomcat?
