Connecting JRun to External Web Servers


Connecting a Netscape/iPlanet web server

This section describes how to configure JRun to communicate with a Netscape web server running on Windows or UNIX. For more information about advanced web server connection techniques, see JRun Administrator's Guide.

Connecting JRun to Netscape

Use the following procedure for connecting JRun to Netscape Enterprise Server (NES) and Netscape iPlanet web server.

To connect Netscape and JRun:

  1. Run the Web Server Configuration tool and connect to a JRun server.

    For details, see "Running the Web Server Configuration tool".

  2. In the Web Server Properties section of the Web Server Configuration tool, select Netscape Enterprise Server/iPlanet, as the following figure shows:

    This figure shows the Web Server Properties window for NES.

  3. Enter the directory path or browse to the Netscape https-xxxx\ config directory and click Select.

    The name of the NES server is https-xxxx. For example, on Windows NT, the web server conf directory might be C:\netscape\server4\https-cats\config.

  4. To enable the following connector settings, click Advanced:
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click Install.

    JRun connects to the web server.

  7. Ensure that your web server is running.
  8. To verify the JRun connection to your Netscape web server, open a web browser on the Netscape web server to the following URL: http://web-server-hostname.

    Note:   This step assumes that Netscape is listening for connections on the default port 80. If not, use http://web-server-hostname:webserver-port-number.

    The default page for the web server to which you connected appears, showing that you successfully configured the connection between JRun and your external web server.

Removing the JRun connection to Netscape/iPlanet

You can remove the web server configuration in one of two ways:

Step 8 should probably say something like http://web-server-hostname/index.jsp.

However, since index.jsp is listed in the default web application's welcome-file-list element, the other way it could be rewritten is "To verify the JRun connection to your IIS web server, open a web browser on the IIS web server to the following URL: http://web-server-hostname. If index.jsp displays, the web server connection is configured properly."

How do I bind JRUN4 to iPlanet virtual servers? I have had very little luck finding documentation on this subject. All the documentation I can find wants me to point to the /https-xxx/config/ directory. But, creating a virtual server in iPlanet doesn't create a seperate config directory for each virtual server.
