run wsadmin from a remote webspehre

[simo]

Hello everybody,
I have a problem with the plug-in “WAS builder plug-in”. My goal is to create jacl script from a Jenkins job to deploy an “ear” in a remote Websphere, for that, I installed “WAS builder plugin” and I configured

The problem is I don’t have Websphere installed in this machine. And when I launch a job I got this 
message: FATAL: No wsadmin.bat/wsadmin.sh file has been found in installation WAS 7.0 used by server WAS 7.0

 

My question is: how can I do to use “wsadmin.bat” from a remote webspehre? Is there any plugin which allow me to run wsadmin.bat without Websphere locally?

All your helps are appreciated

Simo, 

WebSphere Application Server has an Administration Thin Client that you need to install on the jenkins host pc.

Since this is proprietary software, it cannot be included in the plugin. 

As a sidenode, I would suggest to write your script in jython, because jacl scripts are deprecated

Thanks for the response.

But I don’t know how can I do to install this thin client in my Jenkins host pc. I copied two jars into my job,  and from Jenkins system configuration I do this:

But I always get the same error message

the two jars are :

com.ibm.ws.admin.client_7.0.0.jar

com.ibm.ws.webservices.thinclient_7.0.0.jar

Hi Andy,

Even I have a similar situation,

project code files are in the local machine and build scripts too.

I see that build.xml file has IBM WAS java path set , here I have to place the remote IBM WAS java path

if I place the remote WAS path , will it work? or is there a way to get it work?

please help me.

NOTE: I don't have WAS installed in local machine.
