Hi!

Is it possible to write .msi installer for product with below requirements usign InstallShield Developer (or maybe any other tool)?

1. Deploy war file to tomcat
2. Auto configure IIS to tomcat filter for new servlet
3. Add tomcat user group
4. add changes to tomcat startup parametrs and restart it
Is it possible to make 'one click' installer for work with different webservers/app servers?


I'm new for win installer and most complicated questions for me are:
a. How to take tomcat application root/change parametrs?
b. how can installer configure IIS virtual server and filter?

Or maybe you can recommend any resources about writing servlet installers?

Thanks for advance!

There is no built in support for tmcat in MSI or in InstallShield Developer. So you would have to use custom actions (VBscript, DLL, EXE) for these configurations.
