Configuring WMS connector for IIS with ServletExec 5.0/6.0

If you chose to install the WMS connector and you completed the Web server-servlet engine configuration in the post installation setup, these manual steps will have automatically been completed for you.

 

IMPORTANT: For supported versions of Web server-servlet engines, visit http://support.esri.com, select software > ArcIMS > System Requirements

 

Follow these steps to configure IIS with ServletExec 5.0/6.0 for the WMS Connector:

  1. Locate the file wmsconnector.war in the <ArcIMS install directory>\ArcIMS\Connectors\wms_connector directory. This is the WAR file you will deploy.

 

  1. Click Start > Programs > New Atlanta > ServletExec ISAPI > ServletExec Admin to open ServletExec Admin.

 

  1. In the left sidebar under Web Applications, click Manage.

 

  1. Click Add Web Application.

 

  1. For Application Name, type: wmsconnector

 

  1. For URL Context Path, type: /wmsconnector

This is the name you will use to run WMS administrator and applications.

Note: The context path you specify is case sensitive. You might want to create more than one Web Application with path names like WMSConnector or WMSCONNECTOR.

 

  1. For Location, type: <WMS war file location>\wmsconnector.war

 

  1. Click Submit and close ServletExec Admin.

 

  1. On Windows 2000, 2003, and XP, click Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.

 

  1. Stop and Start IIS Admin Service and World Wide Web Publishing Service, and close the Services window.

 

When you deploy the WAR file, the servlet engine expands the WAR file. The default location is <servlet install directory>\ServletExec Data\default\wmsconnector\WAR.

 

To complete configuration of the WMS connector, you must verify that the connector was successfully installed.
