    Posted Tue September 21, 2021 07:43 AM
    HI all,
    I've tried to do the following tutorial:
    https://developer.ibm.com/recipes/tutorials/deploying-vaadin-8-8-2-on-websphere-application-server-8-5-5-15-traditional/#r_overview

    And thanks to other question (Hermann Huebler) I was able to install the application on Was:

    But I cannot understand how to reach it, I've tried:

    http://localhost:10075/test
    http://localhost:9080/test
    http://localhost:10048/test
    http://localhost:10075/testEar
    http://localhost:9080/testEar
    http://localhost:10048/testEar

    But no one give me an answer..... So am asking how to see the port on witch it is reachable? May be in the was console but i wasn't able to find out;
    really thanks

    You can determine the current port use for an application server by navigating in the adminconsole
    Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server_name > Ports > port_name
    The web ports used by your application server are the
    a) WC_defaulthost 
    b) WC_defaulthost_secure
    These are the http and https ports, refer to https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/was/8.5.5?topic=servers-ports-settings

    thanks a lot, I found it, but there is (I think) some other problem with the tutorial because now I get:




    Is something wrong in this tutorial (but I cannot understand what):

    Francesco,

    As you're using a non-default port ; 10073, chances are you don't have a Virtual Host alias configured that matches both the  host name and port number (in your case the port number)

    Take a look at https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/was/8.5.5?topic=hosts-virtual to gain some familiarity with Virtual Hosts, and then review your current Virtual Host settings https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/was/8.5.5?topic=servers-configuring-virtual-hosts Specifically in your case check the Virtual Host alias settings https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/was/8.5.5?topic=hosts-host-alias-settings and add one for port 10073 assuming that's the port your tWAS web container is using.

    Hi Tom really thanks for yuo're reply;
    I've checked and I can say there is a virtual host already configured and mapped to 10073;



    And Host Aliases



    So if I have well understood, the virtual host is already configured; So the problem is with the application in the tutorial; Or am I wrong?

    thanks

    Hello Francesco, what is the context configured for the WebModule you are trying to reach? Please check that out via the Admin Console: Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > <application-name> > Context Root For Web Modules. There you see the context root for each web module in your .ear. So the URLs is basically: http://<host>:<port>/<context-root>/<servlet_or_jsp>.

    Hope this helps - Hermann
