Endpoint listener configuration details for Version 6.0.x compatibility

In WebSphere® Application Server Version 6.0.x, four endpoint listeners were supplied that are configured as described in this topic. In Version 6.1 and later, you can configure any number of endpoint listeners with values of your own choosing - including (if you wish) the values given in this topic.

When you create an endpoint listener configuration for a listener that is supplied with WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.x, you provide the following configuration details:
Endpoint listener name
The name by which the endpoint listener is known. For example, for SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1 the endpoint listener name is SOAPHTTPChannel1.
URL root
The address at which external clients access the endpoint listener endpoint. The URL root is the context root of the endpoint listener application, and provides the root of the Web address that is used to build the endpoint addresses within WSDL files to direct requesters to this endpoint listener.
WSDL serving HTTP URL root
The root of the Web address for the WSDL files of the inbound services that are available at this endpoint listener. This address comprises the root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /sibws.
Note: The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is only used internally by other components of IBM® WebSphere Application Server (notably the IBM UDDI registry). For all other uses, you access the WSDL file through the endpoint listener endpoint for the inbound service. To get the location details for a given inbound service WSDL file, publish the WSDL file to a compressed file as described in Modifying an existing inbound service configuration, then look up the location within the exported WSDL file.
This topic specifies these configuration details (endpoint listener name, endpoint listener URL root and WSDL serving URL root) for the following endpoint listeners:

SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 1

Endpoint listener name
SOAPHTTPChannel1.
URL root
The address at which external clients access the endpoint listener endpoint. If external clients access the endpoint listener through an HTTP server or server cluster, using default port 80, then specify the HTTP server name and no port number. For example (for this endpoint listener):

http://www.yourcompany.com/wsgwsoaphttp1

However, if you allow external clients to connect direct to your application server (for example because it is a stand-alone server or in a development or test environment) then specify the application server host name and port number. For example (for this endpoint listener):

http://your.server.name:9080/wsgwsoaphttp1

WSDL serving HTTP URL root
The root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /sibws. For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws
or
http://your.server.name:9080/sibws
Note: The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is only used internally by other components of IBM WebSphere Application Server (notably the IBM UDDI registry). For all other uses, you access the WSDL file through the endpoint listener endpoint for the inbound service.

SOAP over HTTP endpoint listener 2

Endpoint listener name
SOAPHTTPChannel2.
URL root
The address at which external clients access the endpoint listener endpoint. If external clients access the endpoint listener through an HTTP server or server cluster, using default port 80, then specify the HTTP server name and no port number. For example (for this endpoint listener):

http://www.yourcompany.com/wsgwsoaphttp2

However, if you allow external clients to connect direct to your application server (for example because it is a stand-alone server or in a development or test environment) then specify the application server host name and port number. For example (for this endpoint listener):

http://your.server.name:9080/wsgwsoaphttp2

WSDL serving HTTP URL root
The root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /sibws. For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws
or
http://your.server.name:9080/sibws
Note: The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is only used internally by other components of IBM WebSphere Application Server (notably the IBM UDDI registry). For all other uses, you access the WSDL file through the endpoint listener endpoint for the inbound service.

Synchronous SOAP over Java Message Service (JMS) endpoint listener 1

Endpoint listener name
SOAPJMSChannel1.
URL root

You specify the properties of the synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listener 1 endpoint by using the following syntax:

jms:/queue_or_topic_indicator?property_name=property_value and so on, separating each property using the "&" character.

For example, if you use the default values for queue destination and queue connection factory when you install the synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listeners, then the first part of the end point address is:
jms:/queue?destination=jms/SOAPJMSQueue1&connectionFactory=jms/SOAPJMSFactory1
For each of the synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listeners, here is the full list of properties that you can specify in the endpoint address:
Table 1. Destination, JNDI and JMS related properties and descriptions
Property name Property description
Destination-related Properties (required)  
connectionFactory The JNDI name of the queue or topic connection factory.
destination The JNDI name of the destination queue or topic.
JNDI-related Properties (optional)  
initialContextFactory The name of the initial context factory to use (this is mapped to the java.naming.factory.initial property).
jndiProviderURL The JNDI provider Web address (this is mapped to the java.naming.provider.url property).
JMS-related Properties (optional)  
deliveryMode An indication as to whether or not the request message is persistent. The valid values are 1 (non persistent) and 2 (persistent). The default value is 1.
timeToLive The lifetime (in milliseconds) of the request message. A value of 0 indicates an infinite lifetime.
priority The JMS priority associated with the request message. Valid values are 0 - 9. The default value is 4.
userid The User ID that is used to gain access to the connection factory.
password The password that is used to gain access to the connection factory.
WSDL serving HTTP URL root
The root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /SIBWS.
If external clients access the endpoint listener through an HTTP server or server cluster, typically using default port 80, then this URL root includes the HTTP server name and no port number. For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws
However, if you allow external clients to connect direct to your application server (for example in a development or test environment) then this URL root includes the application server host name and port number. For example:
http://your.server.name:9080/sibws
Note: The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is only used internally by other components of IBM WebSphere Application Server (notably the IBM UDDI registry). For all other uses, you access the WSDL file through the endpoint listener endpoint for the inbound service.

Synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listener 2

Endpoint listener name
SOAPJMSChannel2.
URL root

You specify the properties of the synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listener 2 endpoint by using the following syntax:

jms:/queue_or_topic_indicator?property_name=property_value and so on, separating each property using the "&" character.

For example, if you use the default values for queue destination and queue connection factory when you install the synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listeners, then the first part of the end point address is:
jms:/queue?destination=jms/SOAPJMSQueue2&connectionFactory=jms/SOAPJMSFactory2

For the full list of properties that can be specified in the endpoint address for synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listener 2, see the list of properties detailed above for Synchronous SOAP over JMS endpoint listener 1.

WSDL serving HTTP URL root
The root of the HTTP address at which external clients access your endpoint listener application, followed by /SIBWS.
If external clients access the endpoint listener through an HTTP server or server cluster, typically using default port 80, then this URL root includes the HTTP server name and no port number. For example:
http://www.yourcompany.com/sibws
However, if you allow external clients to connect direct to your application server (for example in a development or test environment) then this URL root includes the application server host name and port number. For example:
http://your.server.name:9080/sibws
Note: The WSDL serving HTTP URL root is only used internally by other components of IBM WebSphere Application Server (notably the IBM UDDI registry). For all other uses, you access the WSDL file through the endpoint listener endpoint for the inbound service.
