Thanks, that's a great reference.
Who would think of looking for "friendly error messages" ?
I guess MS must have had enough flak about that themselves, if they
provide ways to turn it off in the client *and* in the IIS server.
Now the only thing left to do is to provide a way to turn this off in
Apache and Tomcat, and all the other webservers out there.

Subject: Re: Tomcatx.x and vista
Have not made any changes to server.xml.
Tomcat normally listens to HTTP requests on port 8080, and AJP requests
(from IIS or httpd) on port 8009. If you have IIS configured to listen on
port 8080, then Tomcat will not be able to start. If IIS is listening on
port 80 (its default), then requests to 8080 should go straight to Tomcat;
IIS is not involved.
So what is your setup really?
The message appears as the only content of index.html. It
is probably just an error response by IIS.
It's certainly not coming from Tomcat.
Try taking IIS out of the game while setting up Tomcat. Once you have
Tomcat running properly standalone, then try configuring IIS to work with
it. (Or, if you're not using IIS for something else, configure Tomcat to
use port 80 for HTTP and don't bother running IIS at all.)
Also check to make sure the Vista firewall or other network protection
isn't messing things up.
Additional info :
Internet Explorer has a detestable habit (among many others) : for some
HTTP errors, if the error page sent back by the server is below a certain
number of bytes (it varies according to the error code), IE will substitute
its own error page.
Which makes it all the more difficult to see where the error is coming
from.
I do not know of a way to disable this in IE, but if you make sure that the
error pages on the server are at least 1025 bytes in size, they will get
displayed.
Unfortunately, I don't know off-hand where the standard Tomcat error pages
are located.
