New feature: This topic
references one or more of the application server log files. Beginning
in WebSphere Application Server Version 8.0 you can configure the
server to use the High Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL) log and
trace infrastructure instead of using
SystemOut.log ,
SystemErr.log,
trace.log, and
activity.log files or native z/OS logging
facilities. If you are using HPEL, you can access all of your log
and trace information using the LogViewer command-line tool from your
server profile bin directory. See the information about using HPEL
to troubleshoot applications for more information on using HPEL.

If you are
having problems starting a web module, or accessing
resources within a particular web module:
If application server related calls fail during Servlet.init method,
you can either:
- Initialize the servlet manually by making a
single request to
that servlet in your browser when the server is ready for e-business
instead of starting the servlet upon startup or
- You can choose
not to make application server related calls in
the servlet's init method.
If the property to start servlets
during application server startup
is enabled, part of its startup process calls the Servlet.init method
on its servlets when you start the web container. Therefore, when
the web container is starts and calls the init method, other components
such as Naming and Work Load Management may not be fully started yet.
As a result, application server related calls may not work since
all of the application server components may not be ready yet. Once
the application server is 'ready for e-business', it is completely
ready.
If none of these steps fixes your problem, check to see

problem has been identified and documented by looking at the available
online support (hints and tips, tech notes, and fixes). If you
do not find your problem listed there contact IBM support.
