Adding the Basic store store archive to the Administration Console

In order to publish the BasicStore.sar (Professional Edition) or ConsumerDirectBasicStore.sar (Business Edition) store archive using the Administration Console, you must first add the store archive to a directory where the Administration Console can locate the file.

To add the basic store store archive to the Administration Console, do the following:

  1. Locate the BasicStore.sar (Professional Edition) or ConsumerDirectBasicStore.sar (Business Edition) file in the following directory:

    WC_installdir/samples/stores
    iSeriesWAS_user_dir/samples/stores
    WebSphere Commerce StudioWCStudio_installdir/samples/stores

  2. In the following directory, create a new directory named sar:

    WC_installdir/instances/instance_name
    iSeriesWAS_user_dir/instances/instance_name
    WebSphere Commerce StudioWCStudio_installdir/instances/instance_name

  3. Copy the sar file to the sar directory. The sar file will now display in the Publish utility in the Administration Console.
