  • 1.  Redirect URL in Websphere

    Posted 12/19/16 04:48 AM

    Hi All,

    I am trying to redirect the URL of my application installed in WAS 8.5.5 , http://<hostname>:9080/<context_root> to another application in another server http://<hostname_of_another_application>/<context_root>.

     

    Is this possible in WAS. Please share me the link, if there is any methods available.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi

     

    As you are using port 9080, I assume you have not configured the HTTP server with plugin in front of the WAS instance. If you had,  adding a redirect rule to the IHS configuration is a pretty simple thing. 

    As a matter of fact, it might be a easier to change the port number in WAS (say,  to 9081), set up the IHS+plugin. 

    Cheers,
