Need Help to integrate JBoss (wildfly8.2) with IIS

muthu.arockiasamy May 5, 2015 11:35 AM

We are in the process of migrating our web site from Coldfusion to JBoss (wildfly). The current application with Coldfusion runs via IIS6 since our application runs on multiple language (.Net,PHP,java). We have successfully migrated our app to JBoss (wildfly) and in the process of going live. But We couldn't get any successful guide/steps to integrate the app with IIS. Please do help us to run our JBoss site via IIS, with proper step by step guide.

We are totally forsaken, Please help us.

My recommendation would be to do the following:
Set up your infrastructure so that the WildFly server is the front-line HTTP server.
Configure WildFly as a reverse-proxy which forwards all requests for your legacy IIS-based application to your IIS infrastructure (possibly even on a separate private subnet; that's up to you).
Once you finish migrating all your applications off of IIS, you can just shut down that server and no other infrastructure changes are necessary.

There's a very good amount of information about configuring a WildFly-based reverse proxy online; Google turned up lots of references.

02 Hi David,

Finally got it worked.. just followed as is here HOWTO: Set Up IIS and the Jakarta isapi_redirect Connector - Techstacks HOWTO's and I got it
worked. Now IIS is front-end and Wildfly is back end.
