Installing enterprise application files

As part of deploying an application, you install application files on a server configured to hold installable modules.

Before you begin

Before you can install your Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) application files on an application server, you must assemble modules as needed.

Also, before you install the files, configure the target application server. As part of configuring the server, determine whether your application files can be installed to your deployment targets.

About this task

You can install the following enterprise modules on a server:

Application client files can be installed in a WebSphere® Application Server configuration but cannot be run on a server.

Complete the following steps to install your files.

Procedure

  1. Determine which method to use to install your application files. The product provides several ways to install modules.
  2. Install the application files using
    • Administrative console
    • wsadmin scripts
    • Java administrative programs that use Java Management Extensions (JMX) application programming interfaces (APIs)
    • Java programs that define a Java EE DeploymentManager object in accordance with Java EE Application Deployment specification (JSR-88)
  3. Start the deployed application files using
    • Administrative console
    • wsadmin startApplication
    • Java programs that use ApplicationManager or AppManagement MBeans
    • Java programs that define a Java EE DeploymentManager object in accordance with Java EE Application Deployment specification (JSR-88)

What to do next

Save the changes to your administrative configuration.

Next, test the application. For example, point a Web browser at the URL for a deployed application. Typically, the URL is http://hostname:9060/Web_module_name, where hostname is your valid Web server and 9060 is the default port number. Examine the performance of the application. If the application does not perform as desired, edit the application configuration, then save and test it again.
