[opencms-dev] OpenCMS Installation on Webshpere app server

[Dylan Milks]

Hi Mario, 

 

I have gone through the steps to install on WebSphere 7 (I did have to deviate slightly since it would appear that your instructions are for 6.1).  However, when I start the server for the first time, I get various errors in the SystemOut.log.  Most seem to be related to classpath problems, where it can't find the OpenCMS servlets (see errors at end of message).

 

Do you know how to resolve these errors?

 

Thanks again!

 

- Dylan

Hi Dylan,

 

Log in to the WebSphere administration console, typically: http://localhost:9060/ibm/console/ and 

navigate to "Applications" > "Install New Application". Enter the path to the opencms.war file in 

the field "Path to the new application", and the right "Context Root", typically 'opencms.war' 

(the .war is necessary!), then click "Next".

 

In "Step 1: Select installation options", 

  -   uncheck "Distribute application"

  -   uncheck "Enable class reloading"

  -   set file permissions to ".*\.dll=777#.*\.so=777#.*\.a=777#.*\.sl=777" 

  

Then click "Next" 3 more times and "Finish". Then click on "Save directly to the master configuration".

 

This process creates several configuration files under:

  ${WAS_HOME}/profiles/${SERVER_NAME}/config/cells/${NODE_NAME}Cell/applications/opencms_war.ear/

 

Now you can see the installed application under "Applications" > "Enterprise Applications", but it 

is stopped. To be able to start the application you have to unpack opencms.war manually under

  ${WAS_HOME}/profiles/${SERVER_NAME}/installedApps/${NODE_NAME}Cell/opencms_war.ear/opencms.war/

  

And you have to copy ${WAS_HOME}/profiles/${SERVER_NAME}/config/cells/${NODE_NAME}Cell/applications/opencms_war.ear/deployments/opencms_war/META-INF/ 

To  ${WAS_HOME}/profiles/${SERVER_NAME}/installedApps/${NODE_NAME}Cell/opencms_war.ear/META-INF/

  

Then restart Websphere and install OpenCms as normally described in the documentation.

Kind Regards,

Mario.
