  • 1.  Beginning EGL Project Development - Web Preview Server

    Posted Wed February 22, 2023 09:31 AM

    What can and cannot run on the Web Preview Server?  I was doing the HelloWorld web service and while I was able to generate to the Web Preview Server, RBD never generated HelloWorldEAR, and more importantly even after publishing the project to the server, the service never showed up in the Web Services Explorer.  I then downloaded and installed Liberty, and was able to publish successfully, but I can't start Liberty (I get the message "Cannot run program C:\IBM\Liberty\bin\server.bat", but that's a different discussion).  So my question here is twofold: first is the behavior on the Web Preview Server I saw to be expected, and second what is the target purpose of the Web Preview Server?

    I have used the Web preview server for Cordova generated applications to test them. It's a small frontend application server.

    Jeroen, did you ever try to deploy a Rich UI application to the Web Preview server, and if so were you successful?  If I get Tomcat working I won't worry about it, but I just wanted to try the Web Preview because it was already there!
