Find all the support you need for IBM MQ

+++ Objective +++

This tutorial shows the steps to install IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 9.0.5 in
Windows.
Because the goal is to use WAS to run an MDB for IBM MQ, the minimum components from
WAS that are necessary for running the MDB are installed.
This means that this is NOT a comprehensive tutorial on installing all components of WAS!

Note about the reason for installing the Fix Pack for WAS from June-2024:
Because the following APAR for MQ includes support for TLS 1.3 (MQ JMS RA 9.3.0.16)

PH60142: UPDATE THE IBM WEBSPHERE MQ JCA RESOURCE ADAPTER TO VERSION 9.3.0.16

The chapters are:

- Chapter 1: Download and install: IBM Installation Manager
- Chapter 2: Download IBM SDK and WebSphere Application Server
- Chapter 3: Install IBM SDK and WebSphere Application Server
- Chapter 4: Fix Pack - Download IBM SDK and WebSphere Application Server
- Chapter 5: Fix Pack - Install IBM SDK and WebSphere Application Server
- Chapter 6: Miscellaneous: SystemOut.log and Start menu in Windows

+ Why using Windows and not Linux for this tutorial?

The reason is that the default installation of WAS and its components is best done with a
GUI and my only GUI is from a Windows PC.

+++ Chapter 1: Download and install: IBM Installation Manager

The product IBM Installation Manager is used to install WAS.

Thus, we need to download and install the Windows native for "IBM Installation Manager".

If "IBM Installation Manager" is not already running, then start it:

Windows "Start", then under the folder:

By default, IBM Installation Manager does NOT know where you downloaded the zip file for
IBM SDK. You MUST modify the Preferences to add the "Repository" for the
downloaded/expanded zip file.

On the menu bar, select:

+++ Chapter 5: Fix Pack - Install IBM SDK and WebSphere Application Server

+ Step 1: Ensure that the WAS server is NOT running!

Open a Windows Command Prompt.

Go to the directory:
cd "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin"

Ensure that the server is stopped (even if you think that it is not running already):

C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin> stopServer server1

ADMU0116I: Tool information is being logged in file C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1\stopServer.log

ADMU0211I: Error details may be seen in the file: C:\Program

+ Step 2: Launch "IBM Installation Manager"

Windows "Start", then under the folder:

Start:

By default, IBM Installation Manager does NOT know where you downloaded the zip files and
expanded them.
You MUST modify the Preferences to add the "Repository" for the files.

On the menu bar of Installation Manager, select:

installation, update or uninstallation, in order to ensure that the Windows Registry and the
DDLs are properly updated.

++ How to manually start and stop the default server called: server1

Login as a Windows Administrator.

Go to the "bin" directory for the default profile.

cd "C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin"

+ Start:

C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin> startServer server1

 Page 32 of 37

++ How to add the WAS bin directory into the PATH

By default, the PATH is not automatically updated after WAS is installed.

You could add the "bin" directory of the profile into your PATH, in that way, you can issue
"startServer" and "stopServer" for any directory.

Navigate / search for "Environment variables".

You reach the "System Properties" dialog box.
Click on the box: Environment variables

Under the bottom section of the new dialog, select:

Path
… and then click on Edit
 Page 33 of 37

Add a new entry. In this case, at the bottom, the following was added:

Click OK and close the dialogs.

Note that the PATH in existing Command Prompt windows will NOT be automatically
updated.
That is, you NEED to open a NEW Command Prompt window, and the PATH in that new
window will reflect the update

The Windows "where" command uses the directories mentioned in the PATH to search for
executable and batch files.

The following example shows where the startServer.bat is located:

C:\Users\Administrator> where startServer.bat

C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\bin\startServer.bat

In this example, the startServer was started from another directory, but the server1 is
already running:

C:\Users\Administrator> startServer server1

ADMU0116I: Tool information is being logged in file C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1\startServer.log
ADMU3027E: An instance of the server may already be running: server1
 Page 34 of 37

++ Informational, warning and error messages for the server (SystemOut.log)

A very common task for a WAS administrator is to look at the error logs for the server.
They are located at:

C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1

+ Note:

You could create in a directory that is in your PATH, such as C:\WinTools, a batch file that
does the "cd" to the directory of the output files:

File name: cd-was.bat

The contents is only 1 line:

cd C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\AppSrv01\logs\server1

In that way, you could just issue:

cd-was

… and you will to into the desired directory.

+ SystemOut.log

The typical output file to look at is:

SystemOut.log

The top of the file shows the version of WAS and the SDK
