Mapping Tomcat to IIS Virtual Directories

[thebobajob]

Hi

Apologies if this is a real newbie question...

I have set up Tomcat on my Windows XP SP2 machine and it is running fine (I get the default page). I have followed the sets of instructions on linking Tomcat to IIS 5 and the link appears to have worked BUT...

...I keep getting a 404 error message (below). The Tomcat mapping must be working as it is a Tomcat 404 error but no JSP or HTML pages will show, just the error page. I tried with another Virtual Directory which worked fine under IIS, mapped it to Tomcat and now get the Tomcat error - the site is just plain HTML.

I have changed the workers.properties file and the uriworkermap.properties file but I just can't seem to get any joy with it. I can link across my network using the IP address of the 'server' but still get the same errors.

I feel I am very close but there must be something I am missing. You help would be most appreciated, then I can at least start learning JSP.

Thanks
Bob

Thanks for the reply.

http://localhost:8080/moves

also gives me the Tomcat 404 error. I have set up the /moves context in Tomcat. Before I did it ISS ran the site but now it must re-direct to Tomcat as it gives me the 404 error.

I may well have (must have) missed something because I admit this is all very new to me.

I don't know what else to tell you that may help.
