I am using an ISAPI redirect to get to my tomcat web server. The problem is that it works sometimes and then quits. But then a simple refresh of the screen and it works again. There are no error message in IIS, no error messages in the Tomcat logs, and no error messages in the ISAPI redirect log. Even the Windows event logs don't show any errors.

Any help would be appreciated.

When it "quits" - do you get a HTTP error code?

How about a message from IIS?

Note that with the MSIE browser you may have to turn off the "friendly" error message handling.

Hi Bill and thanks for replying,

When it quits, there are no error codes that I can find. In IIS, the only codes are 200's and 304's. And when it quits, there are no updated log in Tomcat or the event logs. And I do have Friendly error messages turned off in IE. The ISAPI redirect log is full of debug messages but no errors.

Well 304 is NOT_MODIFIED - "indicating a conditional GET operation found that the resource was available and not modified"

Now I am wondering if the GET is going all the way to Tomcat or if IIS is deciding that it doesn't need to.

You could change the Tomcat configuration to log ALL access - see the AccessLogValve inside the Host tag of service.xml file.

When I did that I was astonished at the number of web crawler accesses
