Sun Java System Message Queue 3.7 UR1 Administration Guide

Using the Deployment Tool

ProcedureTo Deploy the HTTP Tunnel Servlet in an Application Server Environment

  1. In the Web-based administration GUI, choose

    App Server > Instances > server1 > Applications > Web Applications.

  2. Click the Deploy button.

  3. In the File Path: text field, enter the location of the HTTP tunnel servlet .war file (imqhttp.war), and click OK.

    The location of the imqhttp.war file depends on your operating system (see Appendix A, Platform-Specific Locations of Message QueueTM Data).

  4. Set the value for the Context Root text field, and click OK.

    The Context Root field value is the /contextRoot portion of the tunnel servlet URL:

    http://hostName :portNumber / contextRoot/tunnel

    For example, you could set the Context Root field to /imq.

    The confirmation screen that appears confirms that the tunnel servlet has been successfully deployed, is enabled by default, and in this case is located at:


    /var/opt/SUNWappserver8/domains/domain1/server1/applications/
    j2ee-modules/imqhttp_1

    The servlet is now available at the following URL:


    http://hostName:portNumber/
    contextRoot/tunnel

    Clients can now use this URL to connect to the message service using an HTTP connection.
