Connector details
Apache
The Web Server Configuration Tool adds the following elements to the Apache httpd.conf file:
•
A LoadModule directive defines the connector.
•
An AddHandler directive tells Apache to route requests for ColdFusion pages through the connector.
For Apache 2.x, the connection module is mod_jk.so.
IIS
The Web Server Configuration Tool adds the following elements at either the global level (default) or
website level:
•
Creates a folder
1
in
cf_root\config\wsconfig
, that contains all connector-related files.
•
Creates a virtual directory
Jakarta
in
cf_root\config\wsconfig
(in IIS).
•
Adds an entry,
tomcat
, under the
ISAPI FILTERS
. This points to
cf_root\config\wsconfig\1\
isapi_redirect.dll
.
•
Adds an entry,
tomcat
, to
cf_root\config\wsconfig\1\isapi_redirect.dll
with
permission
allowed
under ISAPI and CGI Restrictions. This is applicable for global sites in IIS manager.
•
Adds the following
isapi
handlers:
cfcHandler
,
cfmHandler
,
cfmlHandler
,
cfrHandler
, and
cfswfHandler
.
•
For debugging issues, set the log level to
debug
, in the
isapi_redirect.properties
file present
in the
cf_roots\config\wsconfig\1\
directory.
•
To disable webserver buffer, change the
is_buffer_enable
to
false
in the
cf_root\config\wsconfig\1\isapi_redirect.properties
file. Do this if you want
cfflush
to work over an IIS connector. If your application does not use
cfflush
, set this to
true
. This may
increase the performance.
Sun ONE Web Server
The Web Server Configuration Tool adds the following elements to Sun ONE Web Server configuration
files:
•
Creates a folder
1
in the
ColdFusion10\config\wsconfig
folder that contains all connector-
related files.
•
Adds the following entry in the
magnus.conf
file of Sun ONE. Change the log level to
debug
for
debugging issues.
Init fn="load-modules"
shlib="C:/ColdFusion10/config/wsconfig/2/nsapi_redirect.dll"
funcs="jk_init,jk_service"
Init fn="jk_init"
worker_file="cf_root/config/wsconfig/2/workers.properties"
log_level="info" log_file="cf_root/config/wsconfig/2/nsapi.log"
shm_file="cf_root/config/wsconfig/2/jk_shm"
•
Adds the entries for all extensions in the
obj.conf
file of Sun ONE. For example,
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/*.cfc/*" name="jknsapi"
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/*.cfc" name="jknsapi"
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/*.cfml" name="jknsapi"
<Object name="jknsapi">
Service fn="jk_service" method="*" worker="server1"
</Object>
