This behavior is by design. Administrators must be aware
that the Web server configuration files might be modified to include
references to the WebSphere samples if they choose to allow WebSphere to
configure the Web server files.
Some environments, such as remote Web server configurations, are
configured in such a way that the installer cannot determine whether it is
appropriate to include references to the WebSphere samples in the Web
server configuration files. The references to these samples are included
by default in the Web server configuration files to minimize the effort
required to set up the WebSphere samples.
Administrators who do not want the sample entries in their Web server
configuration files have two options:
- Review the Web server configuration files after installing WebSphere
and remove entries that reference WSsamples. Best practices dictate
that an administrator review such files before any Web server goes to
production.
- Choose not to allow the WebSphere installer to configure the Web
server configuration files, or allow it to configure a dummy file. Then
manually configure the Web server configuration files so they can interact
with the WebSphere plug-in.
How to do this varies between WebSphere versions, methods of installation,
and Web server product. Refer to the Information Center for more
information. For additional assistance, refer to the Information Center
article under Releated information.
