Re: multiple http servers, plugin propagation

[mateusz...@vw-poznan.pl]

HI,

I have similar problem with WAS 7.0 Express. My topology is the easiest possible (Application server and Web Server on the same machine running windows 2008 server SP1)

The plugin generation works, also propagation completes succesfully:

PLGC0062I: The plug-in configuration file is propagated from D:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\config\cells\vwpnpns00028Node01Cell\nodes\vwpnpns00028Node01\servers\webserver1\plugin-cfg.xml to c:\Program Files\IBM\HTTPServer\Plugins\config\webserver1\plugin-cfg.xml on the Web server computer.
PLGC0048I: The propagation of the plug-in configuration file is complete for the Web server. vwpnpns00028Node01Cell.vwpnpns00028Node01.webserver1.

The problem is, that's a lie. File is not copied and remains old. I wasted 2 days looking for reason why static content of my .war is not displayed, then I found this.

Any help ? There're no error messages in IHS nor WAS logs.

Make sure that c:\Program
Files\IBM\HTTPServer\Plugins\config\webserver1\plugin-cfg.xml is the one
loaded by the plugin (You can look in the httpd.conf for the exact path.

It's possible the plugin copying is failing because of spaces in the
filename. You might need to open a PMR with IBM.

It is possible only if Webserver and application server are installed under root user, if they are under different user other then root, generate and propogate does work from console.

Managed Modules, check if your applications is mapped to webserver1 as well as the real appservers you used.

After that, regenerate the plugin-cfg.xml file, and then try to propogate it, and have a double check. Thanks!
