Redeploying Modified Access Manager WAR Files

Once updated, the WARs must be redeployed to their web container. The web container provides services such as request dispatching, security, concurrency, and life cycle management. The web container also gives the web components access to the J2EE APIs.

The BEA WebLogic Server 6.1 and Sun Java System Application Server web containers do not require WARs to be exploded. The servers themselves are deployed as WARs. After WAR files are installed on these servers, you must restart all related servers.

To Redeploy a WAR On BEA WebLogic Server 6.1

Run the Java command on the BEA WebLogic 6.1 Server using the following form:

java weblogic.deploy -url protocol://server_host:server_port
-component amconsole:WL61 _server_name 
deploy WL61_admin_password deployment_URI AccessManager-base/SUNWam/WARname.war

where the following variables are used:

protocol://server_host:server_port

The protocol [http | https] and fully-qualified name of the Access Manager server.

WL61 _server_name

The name of the WebLogic server.

WL61_admin_password

The WebLogic administrator password.

deployment_URI

For console.war, the deployment URI is amconsole.

For services.war, the deployment URI is amserver.

For password.war, the deployment UIR is ampassword.

AccessManager-base

The directory where the Access Manager server is installed.

WARname.war

The name of the WAR file to deploy.

[console.war | server.war | password.war]

For more complete information on the Java utility weblogic.deploy and its options, see the http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs61/index.html.

To Redeploy a WAR File on Sun Java System Application Server 7.0

On the Application Server, run the asadmin command using the following form:

asadmin deploy -u S1AS_administrator 
-w  S1AS_administrator_password -H console_server_host
-p S1AS_server_port --type web secure_flag 
--contextroot deploy_uri --name deploy_uri 
--instance S1AS_instanceAccessManager-base/SUNWam/WARname

where the following variables are used:

S1AS_administrator

Application Server administrator

S1AS_administrator_password

Application Server administrator password

console_server_host

Access Manager server host name

S1AS_server_port

Application Server port number

deploy_uri

For console.war, the deployment URI is amconsole.

For password.war, the deployment URI is ampassword.

For services.war, the deployment URI is amservices.

S1AS_instance/AccessManager-base

Application Server directory where Access Manager server is installed

WARname.war

The name of the WAR file to deploy.

[console.war | services.war | password.war]

For more information on the asadmin deploy command and its options, see the Sun Java System Application Server 7.0 Developer’s Guide.
