XT application on your JBoss Application Server.
To deploy Workplace XT:
- Stop JBoss Application Server,
if it is running.
- Deploy Workplace XT according
to your deployment type.

For exploded directory deployment only |
- On the JBoss Application Server,
copy the WorkplaceXT folder from:
install_path/IBM/FileNet/WebClient/
to:
JBOSS_home/server/server_name/deploy/
- Append the extension .war to the WorkplaceXT folder:
JBOSS_home/server/server_name/deploy/WorkplaceXT.war
- (optional) For a custom name for the context root (and the application),
rename the WorkplaceXT.war folder to custom_name.war,
where custom_name is the name you choose for your
application.

For WAR file deployment only |
On the JBoss server, copy the web_client.war (or custom_name.war)
file from:
install_path/IBM/FileNet/WebClient/deploy
to:
JBOSS_home/server/server_name/deploy/
|
For EAR file deployment only |
On the JBoss server, copy the web_client.ear file
from:
install_path/IBM/FileNet/WebClient/deploy
to:
JBOSS_home/server/server_name/deploy/

- Start or restart the JBoss Application Server.
- Verify that the application deployed successfully.
Verify that the server.log file located
in JBOSS_home/server/server_name/log/ lists
deployment of the WAR or EAR file you used.
- (Windows only)
From the Windows Services
Console, restart the Process Workplace XT Services
Manager service.
- Restart Process Task Manager and Component Manager.
- Exit the Process Task Manager application.
- By using the application server administration
tool, verify that the Workplace XT application
is running.
- Open a Web browser and type in the URL for the Workplace XT application.
- If you are using a load-balancer or proxy server the URL has the
form:
- Workplace XT
- http://virtual_name:port_number/WorkplaceXT
- If connecting to an individual cluster node the URL would have
the form:
- Workplace XT
- http://clustered_server_name:port_number/WorkplaceXT/
Sign-in by using the virtual name to properly set the base Workplace XT URL. If it is not set
correctly you must change it in Site Preferences.
- Verify that the sign-in page displays, and log in as
a user.
- Fail one of the nodes.
- Verify that you can reload the sign-in page, and log
in as the same user.
Each new version of Workplace XT can
add new actions or modify existing actions. When you have completed
the upgrade and deployment steps, review the new and modified actions
in your upgraded Workplace XT environment
and apply whatever access roles are appropriate for your site. For
details, see the Workplace XT help
topic .
Workplace XT requires that the client
operating system has the Java™ Runtime
Environment (JRE) downloaded and installed. If JRE is not installed,
users will be prompted to install the JRE on first login.
