Web server and servlet engine configuration

You must have a Web server and Servlet Engine installed and operational before you can configure them for ArcIMS. For information on setting up your Web server and Servlet Engine visit http://support.esri.com/search/KbDocument.asp?dbid=25867.

 

For supported Web servers and Servlet Engines, See Step 1: Verify system requirements. After you have installed your Web server and Servlet Engine you must verify that they are communicating with each other. To verify that your Web server and Servlet Engine are communicating see Verifying your Servlet Engine. If your Web server and Servlet Engine do not appear to be successfully communicating with each other, see your Servlet Engine's Web site for further information.

 

ServletExec 5.0 AS users

If you are using ServletExec 5.0 AS and you did not install it from the ArcIMS CD, you will need to verify that you are using ServletExec native adapter version 5.0c or greater. See http://www.newatlanta.com/biz/c/products/servletexec/self_help/faq/detail?faqId=94 for directions on determining the version of the ServletExec AS native adapter you have installed. ArcIMS Supports ServletExec 5.0 (patch level c or greater). If you do not have ServletExec 5.0 (patch level c or greater) installed you can obtain it from the ArcIMS CD or from the New Atlanta Web site.

 

Automated Web server - Servlet Engine configuration is provided for the following:

 

 

 

You can run the post installation setup at any time from Start > Programs > ArcGIS > ArcIMS > ArcIMS Post Installation.

 

  1. Select the Web server you installed

 

Select the Web server-servlet engine combination you have installed on your machine.

 

Select I will manually configure my Web server - servlet engine,  if you are using a Web server that is not currently configured automatically. If you select Other, you will need to manually configure your Web server. See Step 4: Configure your Web server for details.

 

  1. Provide information about your Web server-servlet engine combination

 

 

Depending on your chosen Web server-servlet engine combination, various information in this dialog box will be required.

 

Use the Help button on this dialog box to view a list of common Web servers and their servlet directories. If you are unsure of the location of your Web server or servlet engine directory, contact your system administrator.

 

Notes:

For Sun Java System (formerly Sun ONE) 6.0 and Apache, you must provide the location of your Web server installation directory. Click Help on this dialog box for common Web Server installation locations.

 

If you are configuring Sun Java System (formerly Sun ONE) 6.0 SP 5, and you are using the Metadata Explorer or the ArcIMS Services Administrator, the location of your Java 2 Standard Edition Software Development Kit (J2SE SDK) installation directory is also required. Click Help on this dialog box for common J2SE SDK directories.
