8 Managing the Domain Web Server

This chapter describes how to manage the domain web server.

About the Domain Web Server

In hosted domains the domain contains a domain Web servers that provides HTTP access to the domain configuration and the OSGi bundles for the domain. Domain servers access the domain configuration over a web connection.

After creating a hosted domain, you need to start the domain Web server.

Starting the Domain Web Server

The Domain web server must be started by a user who has read privileges to the Domain Configuration directory. See the discussion about configuring security between Service Broker components for more information about setting up user privileges.

To start the domain web server:

1. Open a command line shell.

   Note:

   You must be logged in as a user who has read privileges on the file system where the domain configuration resides.

2. Change the directory to:

   Oracle_home/ocsb60/admin_console

   Oracle_home is the Oracle Home directory you defined when you installed the product.

3. Enter:

   ./host.sh directory

   Replace directory with the path to the domain configuration directory.

4. If HTTPS is enabled, enter the keystore password.

5. If Basic Authentication is enabled, enter the user name and password combination to use for HTTP Basic Authentication.

When the domain web server is started, servers can access the domain configuration over HTTP or HTTPS.

The port is defined in the property org.eclipse.equinox.http.jetty.http.port. The default value is 9000. See "System Administrator's Reference" for more information.

Stopping the Domain Web Server

The recommended way to stop the domain Web server of the hosted domain is to kill the process in which it is running. Refer to the documentation of your operating system for more information.
