Testing the WebSphere and IBM HTTP Server Installation

To test the WebSphere Administration Console:

  1. Ensure that the WebSphere Application Server (default name is server1) is started.

  2. Ensure that the IBM HTTP Server is started.

  3. Start a web browser.

  4. Enter this URL to test the WebSphere Administration Console:

    http://<machine_name>:<http_port>/snoop

    where machine_name is your server, and

    where http_port is the port of your IBM HTTP Server. The default value is 80.

    For example:

    http://localhost:80/snoop
