It's an IBM HTTP server running an in-process Tomcat server. I used a wizard in 
the IBM Web Administration tool to set it up. The language used in the Web 
Administration tool is that you enable the HTTP server to run JSPs and Servlets.

It's not a standalone Tomcat server. The directory structure in the IFS looks 
something like this:

Root
  www
    myhttpserver
      htdocs
      webapps
        mywebapp
          WEB-INF
            classes
            lib

The 'myhttpserver' is an IBM HTTP server powered by Apache. I serve static docs 
out of the 'htdocs' directory or out of custom directories. But there's also a 
'webapps' directory where I put WAR files and web applications.   

Thanks,
Kelly

Kelly,

Can we first get clear on what you use ?

An HTTP server can't run Java applications... so either it must be Websphere 
(Express) or Tomcat.

Also, what do you mean with "put the WAR file in the webapps directory" (which 
is the full path) ?  Don't you use the WAS console to 'Install' the application 
?

Kind regards,
Paul

I haven't actually gone looking for log files. Not sure which ones to look for 
or where they would be stored. 

In the Web Administration tool, I stop the HTTP server, put the WAR file in the 
webapps directory, and start the HTTP server again. I then wait a couple of 
minutes. When I click the refresh button the server shows as stopped. The WAR 
file has been expanded and all the directories are there. But the HTTP server 
just won't start.

Thanks,
Kelly

Hi Mike,

Not really... there's even a Redbook that explains how to do it with Tomcat.

BTW is Apache failing to start (I don't see any reason why it shouldn't by 
applying a new WAR), or is Tomcat failing ?  If so, which messages ?

Kind regards,
Paul

I think Webfacing requires a Websphere app server

>>> KCookson@xxxxxxxxxxxx 3/9/2005 9:16 AM >>>
Well, I wasn't able to get a WebFaced application to run in a Java
enabled IBM HTTP server (Apache). It runs the snoop JSP and calculator
Servlet supplied by IBM fine. It also expands the WAR file and runs a
web application I developed myself fine. 

But when I put a WebFaced WAR file in the webapps directory, the HTTP
server won't start up successfully. I set a URL Mount Point, URL path,
and Application base directory in the ASF Tomcat Settings. I also tried
without these. Neither way worked.

Oh well, worth a shot, I guess.

Kelly
