Andre Warnier, thanks very much pointing the shortfall in my message.

I myself have been using isapi_redirector for more than 3 years without any problem and suddenly for unexplainable reasons (I am sure it was not the isapi_redirector problem but some other problem in our server that was driving me crazy) from my server end, I could not make the isapi_redirector work in our server and this new software helped me solve the problem.


Vijaya,

NO, you have /NOT/ been using isapi_redirector for 3 years.
You have been using isapi_redirector2 <-- emphasis on "2".
isapi_redirector2 was a parallel development to mod_jk2 <-- emphasis on "2", which is a different thing than isapi_redirector and mod_jk (both without "2"). And much of the confusion and loss of time has been that, all along, you have been talking about isapi_redirector, when really you meant isapi_redirector_2_.

isapi_redirector2, despite its name, is not just a "version" of 
isapi_redirector.
It is a different thing altogether.
isapi_reirector2/mod_jk2 are software that was developed at some point as a possible alternative to isapi_redirector/mod_jk, but was then (9 years ago) abandoned. And the fact that it is called isapi_redirector2, which somehow implies that it may be more recent than isapi_redirector - which is not the case - is unfortunate, but it is so.

That what I and other people on this list have been trying to tell you, but that somehow did not come through clearly enough. And we also do not know why, 3 years ago, you or someone else chose to install and use the abandoned isapi_redirector2 on that server, instead of the developed/maintained/supported isapi_redirector.
That was a mistake. But it is now history anyway.
