Manually configuring Sun ONE Web server

This topic describes how to change configuration settings for the Sun ONE (formerly iPlanet) Web server, Version 6.0 and later.

This topic is one of the optional procedures in Manually configuring supported Web servers.

 Why and when to perform this task

Configure the Sun ONE Web server, V6.0 on a Linux, UNIX, or Windows platform.

Examples and messages are sometimes shown on more than one line for ease of presentation. Verify that each directive in a Web server configuration file is on one line.

  1. (Optional)   Configure entries in the obj.conf configuration file and in the magnus.conf configuration file for Version 6.0 of the Sun ONE Web server on a Linux or UNIX-based platform.

    Add one directive to the obj.conf file after the "<Object name=default>" tag

    Service fn="as_handler"
    

    Add two directives at the end of the magnus.conf file

    Init fn="load-modules" 
         funcs="as_init,as_handler,as_term" 
         shlib="/opt/WebSphere/AppServer/bin/libns41_http.so"
    Init fn="as_init" 
         bootstrap.properties="/opt/WebSphere/AppServer/config/cells/plugin-cfg.xml"
    

    The installation root, /opt/WebSphere/AppServer, can vary per operating system platform. For example, the AIX installation root is /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/ for Version 5.

  2. (Optional)   Configure entries in the obj.conf configuration file and in the magnus.conf configuration file for Version 6.0 of the Sun ONE Web server on a Windows platform.

    Add one directive to the obj.conf file after the "<Object name=default>" tag

    Service fn="as_handler"
    

    Add two directives at the end of the magnus.conf file

    Init fn="load-modules" 
         funcs="as_init,as_handler,as_term" 
         shlib="drive:\WebSphere\AppServer\bin\libns41_http.dll"
    Init fn="as_init" 
         bootstrap.properties=" 
         drive:\WebSphere\AppServer\config\cells\plugin-cfg.xml"
    
    

  3. Set the shared library path on HP-UX machines.On some installations of Sun ONE Directory Server on an HP-UX machine, it is necessary to manually set the SHLIB_PATH variable to /usr/lib before starting Sun ONE Directory Server with a plug-in configured for SSL. For example, in the korn shell, issue the following command before invoking the command to start Sun ONE Directory Server

    export SHLIB_PATH=/usr/lib:$SHLIB_PATH
    

You can configure the Sun ONE Web server to work with WebSphere Application Server, V5.
