You must configure IBM® HTTP Server for IBM i before using the Web server with WebSphere® Application Server for IBM i.

Before you begin

This topic assumes that you have decided to use the IBM HTTP Server for IBM i to serve requests to WebSphere Application Server. Configuring an HTTP server instance on IBM i and the "Selecting a Web server topology diagram and roadmap" topic describe the HTTP servers available to WebSphere Application Server users.

About this task

An HTTP server instance is not required to install WebSphere Application Server. However, it is recommended to support requests for servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) resources managed by WebSphere Application Server.

Before you can use the IBM HTTP Server for IBM i, you must configure an instance of IBM HTTP Server to communicate with WebSphere Application Server.

Procedure

    See Starting the *ADMIN instance of IBM HTTP Server on IBM i for more information.
