Jetty 8

07 Dec 2012, 17:15

Hi,

1. How to enable Jetty 8 once installed on a webserver?

2. How to set Jetty 8 as service. I saw reports about a service wrapper exe but can't get it on Jetty website?

Regards

Hello,

Could you please describe your scenario in more details and explain why Jetty from Zoo feed does not suit you. Why do you need another one?

1. To make existing Jetty 8 work with Zoo open C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config file, find heliconZooServer/userEngines section and add there a new engine with the setting of Jetty you have.
You can use our java.jetty.8 engine as an example.

2. Zoo doesn't require Jetty to work as a service, Zoo will run it by itself when necessary.

What if you are going to upgrade your OS, how can you use your existing Jetty 8 from the first installation?

Is it necessary? Jetty is only 10mb download. You can install it again in less than 1 minute.
If it was Helicon Zoo installation of Jetty it will probably detect existing install automatically. Otherwise you can create new engine in applicationHost.config as we said above, but this is on your sole responsibility as the configuration not tested by us.

Jetty is not installed as a service. With Helicon Zoo sites are run as IIS web sites. Jetty is only used in the backstage as a servlet engine.
You are actually not supposed to be installing Jetty separately, it is recommended to install Java Hosting Package instead.

No file extensions binding are created after Helicon Zoo installation. You are supposed to use application templates (from WebPI) to create application or read documentation to find how you can create application manually - http://www.helicontech.com/zoo/docs/
You can see example of file extension mapping in the Railo/ColdFusion applications http://www.helicontech.com/zoo/docs/java-railo.htm Extensions are mapped individually for every application. What kind of extensions you are trying to map? Usually Java applications are not mapping to file extensions.

Java usually map to "*". Anyway, mappings are set up for each application individually using web.config files. There should not be global extension mappings.

Return to Helicon Zoo
