Apache Tomcat
Apache Tomcat is required to run the JSP scripts for the web components of the XMediusFAX software and
is dependent on JRE to run. Therefore if the Fax Manager feature of XMediusFAX has not been selected for
installation, the web components will not be installed and neither Tomcat nor JRE will be available for selection
in the Third party Installer.
If however, the administrator selects to install the Fax Manager feature, Tomcat and JRE will be displayed
in the Third party Installer. When Tomcat is selected, the default parameters will be used, i.e. it will listen on
port 8080 and a service named Apache Tomcat will be created and set to start automatically.
Default Installation PathVersion Number
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.07.0.26
Note: Apache Tomcat is required to run the web components. If this version has already been installed,
the installer will not select it by default. The administrator can opt to reinstall it. Doing so will stop the
Apache Tomcat service and restart it after installation. If another version of Tomcat is found, the older
version of the Tomcat service will be stopped and set to a disabled state. The new Apache Tomcat service
will be installed and started.
IIS Redirector
The IIS Redirector (an ISAPI filter) is used to hook IIS to Tomcat. Its function is to allow the use of IIS as the
Web Server, but redirects all Java-related execution to Tomcat. If the administrator selects to install the
redirector, a virtual folder and an ISAPI filter named jakarta will be added to the IIS “Default Web Site”.
ISApi Redirector will be installed in the Tomcat folder.
Note: The installation of the IIS Redirector will not be selected if IIS is not installed on the computer.
Also, if you installed IIS 7, you must additionally install the following Role Services of the Web Server
(IIS):
• IIS6 Metabase Compatibility
• ISAPI Filters
• ISAPI Extensions
• Windows Authentication (optional component required to use NT authentication for the Web client)
Python
Description of the Python language and of its use in XMediusFAX.
Note: Depending on your license, the XMediusFAX feature associated to this third party software may
be disabled.
Python is a dynamic object-oriented programming language. It is used by XMediusFAX to allow the creation
and use of more flexible features at two levels of the process of faxes:
• Customized rules for the fax incoming routing table
• Customized destinations for the fax notifications
