Cause

If the following are being used:

· Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS)
· Apache Tomcat 5.0.2x servlet engine
· a file called isapi_redirector2.dll in the $CATALINA_HOME\bin\win32 directory

It is then highly likely that this DLL file is causing the problem. It is not correctly passing the ArcXML request received by IIS to the ArcIMS Servlet Connector.

Solution or Workaround

It is necessary to remove the isapi_redirector2.dll and replace it with the updated isapi_redirect.dll file. Refer to link in the Related Information section below. the ESRI Knowledge Base Technical Article 29766; the link is provided in the "Related" section below.
