You can create a server from the command prompt.
Procedure
- Open a command prompt, then change directory to the wlp/bin directory.
Where path_to_liberty is the location
you installed Liberty on your operating system.
Example on Windows: C:\Users\mo>
cd path_to_liberty\wlp\bin
Example on Linux: mo@machine01:~>
cd path_to_liberty/wlp/bin
- Run the following command to create a server. If you do
not specify a server name, defaultServer is used.
Where server_name is the name you want
to give your server.
Example on Windows: C:\wlp\bin>
server create server_name
Example on Linux: mo@machine01:~>
server create server_name
server create server_name
Results
If the server is created successfully, you receive message: Server server_name created.
If
the specified server already exists, no server is created and you
receive an exception message:
CWWKE0005E: The runtime environment could not be launched.
CWWKE0045E: It was not possible to create the server called server_name because
the server directory C:\wlp\usr\servers\server_name already exists.
The
TCP/IP ports for the new server are not automatically assigned. You
can specify those ports by Specifying Liberty profile bootstrap properties other
than using the default ones.
What to do next
Configure your server to have the features that your application
requires.
