IIS + Tomcat

[Ermal Aliraj]

Hello,

I have installed Tomcat7 in a macchine where is running IIS (WinServer 2008
R2 Enterprise).
I need to deploy an e-commerce web application from which I expect an hight
number of user interactions.
The application is written in JSF+Spring, so static context seems I have
only the images and css.

Will be a good choice to make the application available outside my macchine
directly through Tomcat?
Will IIS give me a benefit or a penalty?

Thanks in advance for any good answer.

Re: make Tomcat reachable on internet

I guess you need to add an static IP to your router and do a mapping with
your local ip (macchine where tomact is running)

In my case I can do that accessing to the router 169.168.1.1 then
Firewall->DMZ
Here I have a table with two fields:
- Public IP Address
- Client PC IP Address

Public Ip is an ip assigned randomly from my ISP but it changes every 2-3
days, because I don't have a STATIC ip.
Client ip is the internal ip of the macchine in my LAN, usually 192.168.1.x

In this way you can access your application typing outside your LAN:
publicip:port/ApplicationName

Re: make Tomcat reachable on internet

If you use DMZ your problem to make visible Tomcat outside your LAN will
disappear.
BUT, (in case you don't have a static IP) you have to deal with the problem
that the given IP is provisory and will be changed after some days, so you
have to find a way to communicate the new IP to whom who wants to ping
tomcat (application deployed on tomcat).

WebApp on Tomcat recognize automaticely uploaded file

[Ermal Aliraj]

Hello,

can anyone help me, if  there is a configuration parameter in tomcat, which
permit to the web application to auto-recognize when I put an image from
filesystem into the webapp?

I put images in the path of my application: appBase/webAppA/uploads through
another webAppB, but seems that webAppA recognizes the images only after
Tomcat restart.
Working until now with tomcat integrated into eclipse, I didn't noticed
this event because eclipse was publishing automatically after each upload.

Thank you to anyone for any kind of help.

Yes, I say webAppA do not recognize the images because do not serve them
through the browser via URL.

I did the following scneario and writing down in case can make the
situation more clear
uploaded manualy the following files on:

webAppA/uploads/1.jpg
webAppB/uploads/1.jpg

requesting the files through URL i have the following:

www.localhost/webAppA/uploads/1.jpg --- no reply
www.localhost/webAppB/uploads/1.jpg -- photo visualized

Do you have any idea what might cause appA not to "recognize" the images?

Thank you very much for your help

Re: WebApp on Tomcat recognize automaticely uploaded file

I know is strange but webAppA, started to work suddenly.
The only thing I have done this days is a lot of restarts when deploying
stuff for webAppB. Now seems that each image uploaded through webAppB,
inside c:/pathtoDocbase/webAppA/uploads/ (or pasted directly in file
system) is been replied(showed in the browser) correctly when doing a http
request like http://servername/webAppA/uploads/1.jpg

Maybe is a configuration parameter that I have changed without noticing it,
but I am not sure.

Thank you for your reply.
