Configuring Tomcat Server to
Proxy Connections Through IIS

Q: How do we configure Tomcat Server to proxy connections through IIS?

A: Download and install these extentions:

https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/application-request-routing

https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite

0) Click on the server itself in IIS (not the site, but the top level server). Click Application Request Routing Cache. Click Server Proxy Settings on the right hand side. Make sure Enable Proxy is checked. Click Apply.

1) Click on the website in IIS

2) click URL Rewrite

3) click Add Rule(s)

4) Click blank rule

5) for name, put in TG Tester

6) match url -> requested URL = Matches the pattern

7) Using = Regular Expressions

8) Pattern = tester/(.*)

9) ignore case is checked

10) Action type = rewrite

11) rewrite url = http://localhost:8080/tester/{R:1}

12) append query string should be checked

13) stop processing of subsequent rules should be checked

14) Click Apply then Back to Rules

15) The Tester URL should be available under the "/tester/" URI under your IIS site.  So if your IIS site is set up to serve requests for https://mysite.com/, then TG Web would be available at https://mysite.com/tester/   (note the trailing /)
