Java app not "exploding"/not starting

19 Jul 2012, 11:02

Hi all,

I followed the article:
http://www.helicontech.com/articles/dep ... -with-iis/

However I did not succeed in deploying my java application. It is a simple hello world app, just to test (I've got a few apps, I would like to host).

I have created a new web-site in the directory called "thisisatest" under wwwroot. Placed the web.config (below) and placed "thisisatest.war" as well in that folder.

I tried setting the directory to read/write for the ISS user group and tried creating a folder to extract to. No results :(

This is my web.config
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <system.webServer>
    <heliconZoo>
      <application name="jetty.project" >
        <environmentVariables>
          <!-- Uncomment line below if you want to set contexts directory -->
          <!--  <add name="CONTEXTS_DIR" value="%APPL_VIRTUAL_PATH%" /> -->

          <!-- Optional variables: -->
          <!-- <add name="CONTEXT_PATH" value="%APPL_VIRTUAL_PATH%" /> -->
          <!-- <add name="WAR_EXTRACT_PATH" value="%APPL_VIRTUAL_PATH%" /> -->

          <!-- A WAR file or start directory to run -->
          <add name="WAR_FILE" value="thisisatest.war" />
        </environmentVariables>
        </application>
    </heliconZoo>

        <handlers>
          <add name="jetty.project#x86" scriptProcessor="java.jetty"
            path="*" verb="*" modules="HeliconZoo_x86"
            preCondition="bitness32" resourceType="Unspecified"
            requireAccess="Script" />
          <add name="jetty.project#x64" scriptProcessor="java.jetty"
            path="*" verb="*" modules="HeliconZoo_x64"
            preCondition="bitness64" resourceType="Unspecified"
            requireAccess="Script" />
        </handlers>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>


Is there any logging going on somewhere? Or can anyone point me in a direction, please...? :) Thanks a lot!

Logs should tell us everything we need to know.
Please, see documentation for logging, although there's simply two lines after defining modules that just need to be uncommented. Those logs are supposed to be in Ape installation folder.

Well. It seemed the problem solved itself. It is working now at least...
Thanks for the quick reply any way and thanks for the heads up regarding logging :)
