WEB SERVERS


Setting up Domino to work with IBM HTTP Servers
The IBM HTTP Server (IHS) is packaged as part of the WebSphere server. For information on installing IHS and the WebSphere Application Server (WAS), see the WebSphere installation documentation. Installing the plug-in is an option during WebSphere and IHS installation. For information on installing the plug-in during WebSphere setup, see the WebSphere installation documentation.

The plug-in files are also packaged with the Domino server. If the plug-in was not installed during WebSphere or IHS installation, the administrator can copy the plug-in files from the appropriate directory:

Since several of the required directory structures and files are created during the WebSphere and IHS installs, they can also be created or copied from an existing installation.

To install the WebSphere plug-in from Domino

1. Install a Domino 7 server. The plug-in files are packaged with the server in the \Domino\data\domino\plugins/<WAS version> directory

2. On the IHS server, create the appropriate directory structure.
For AIX, Solaris, and Linux:For Win32 (you can use any drive):
/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/binc:\WebSphere\Plugins\bin
/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/configc:\WebSphere\Plugins\config
/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/logsc:\WebSphere\Plugins\logs
3. Copy the following files from the Domino server to the IHS server:
Copy this file from the Domino serverto this location on the IHS server
For AIX, Solaris, and Linux:
<Domino data directory>/domino/plugins/<WASversion>/<platform>/mod_was_ap20_http.so/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/bin
<Domino data directory>/domino/plugins/
plugin-cfg.xml
/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/config
For Win32:
<Domino data directory>/domino/plugins/<WAS version>/<platform>/ mod_was_ap20_http.dllc:\WebSphere\Plugins\bin
<Domino data directory>/domino/plugins/
plugin-cfg.xml
c:\WebSphere\Plugins\config


4. On the IHS server, edit the IHS configuration file httpd.conf (on a default installation this file is located at <IHS install directory>/conf/httpd.conf). Add the following lines to the bottom of the file:
For AIX, Solaris, and Linux:For Win32 :
LoadModule was_ap20_module /usr/WebSphere/Plugins/bin/mod_was_ap20_http.soLoadModule was_ap20_module  "c:\WebSphere\Plugins\bin\mod_was _ap20_http.dll"
WebSpherePluginConfig/usr/WebSphere/Plugins/config/plugin-cfg.xmlWebSpherePluginConfig "c:\WebSphere\Plugins\config"


5. Modify the plugin-cfg.xml file according to the instructions for configuring the WebSphere plug-in.

6. Set up the Domino server according to the instructions for IHS.

7. Restart the IHS server and test your installation.
