Deploying a Web services client application

After you have created an enterprise archive (EAR) file for the Web services client application, you can deploy the Web services client application into the Application Server.

Before you begin

To deploy a Java-based Web services client, you need an enterprise application, also known as an enterprise archive (EAR) file that is configured and enabled for Web services. For Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) Web services clients, you must configure the client deployment descriptors.

About this task

You can use either the administrative console or the wsadmin scripting tool to deploy an EAR file. If you are installing an application containing Web services by using the wsadmin command, specify the -deployws option for JAX-RPC applications.

If you are installing an application containing Web services by using the administrative console, select Deploy WebServices in the Install New Application wizard. Read about installing a new application for more information on using the administrative console.

The following actions deploy the EAR file with the wsadmin command:

Procedure

  1. Start install_root/bin/wsadmin from a command prompt.
  2. Enter the $AdminApp install EARfile "-usedefaultbindings -deployws" command at the wsadmin prompt.

Results

You have a deployed a Web service client in the application server runtime environment.

What to do next

Test the Web services client. You can now test a Web services-enabled a managed client EAR file or an unmanaged client JAR file.
