Testing the WebSphere Application Server

You can test WebSphere by accessing a default application, but a default application requires that Port 80 be configured with WebSphere. You can configure Port 80 with WebSphere using the previous tasks in this chapter.

To test the WebSphere Application Server:

  1. Ensure that the IBM HTTP Server is started (as explained in the above section: Starting the IBM HTTP Server for the Instance).

  2. If it is not already started, start WebSphere default server (server1) using the instructions in the chapter: Starting WebSphere.

  3. Access the default snoop servlet using this URL:

    http://MachineName/snoop

    where MachineName is the name of the server where you installed the HTTP Server.

    Tip: If your Web Server is not on the same machine as WebSphere, you might need to copy the plug-in configuration file from the WebSphere machine to the Web Server machine.
