Configuring Sun Java System Application Server 9 for Service Administrator

If you wish to use Service Administrator, and you did not use the post installation setup to configure your Web server and servlet engine, you must deploy a Web application manually.

 

IMPORTANT: For supported versions of Web server-servlet engines, visit http://support.esri.com, select software > ArcIMS > System Requirements

 

Follow these steps to manually configure Sun Java System Application Server 9 for the Service Administrator:

  1. Locate the file esriadmin.war in the <ArcIMS Installation Directory>\ArcIMS\Administrator\esriadmin directory. This is the WAR file you will deploy.

 

  1. Start the Sun Java System Application Server if it is not started already by going to Start > Programs > Sun Microsystems > Application Server PE 9> Start Default Server.

 

  1. Go to Start > Programs > Sun Microsystems > Application Server PE > Admin Console to open the administrator console for Sun Java System Application Server 9 or type http://localhost:4848 in a Web browser. Log in.

 

  1. In the left panel, navigate to Application Server> Applications > Web Applications (click on the little bullet to expand applications).

 

  1. In the right panel, click Deploy, select Specify a package file to upload to the Application Server, then browse to the file esriadmin.war in the <ArcIMS Installation Directory>\ArcIMS\Administrator\esriadmin directory and click Next.

 

  1. Click OK.

 

  1. Save and Close the Sun Java System Application Server 9 administrator console.

 

  1. Navigate to <Sun Java System Application Server 9 Installation Directory>\SDK\domains\domain1\config and in a text editor (such as Notepad) open the server.policy file.  Copy and add the following text immediately above the line that begins “\\ Following grant block is only required by connectors”:

// Permissions for the ArcIMS Servlet Connector

grant codeBase "file:/<Sun Java System Application Server 9 Installation Directory>/SDK/domains/domain1/applications/j2ee-modules/esriadmin_1/WEB-INF/classes/-" {

    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read,write";

    permission java.io.FilePermission "<<ALL FILES>>", "read,write,delete";

};

 

  1. Save and close the file.

 

  1. Restart Sun Java System Application Server 9.
