Starting from scratch

[jamief]

Sorry I delete original post so all that followed is gone

I will attempt to recreate here.

We will work to set up you Iseries to be a webserver.

We will need to first check your version

we can do that by typing command

 DSPDTAARA QSS1MRI

I am hoping to see V5R? (something)

Goto this page and copy only the bold lines from the
HTTP config file. use WRKHTTPCFG to view/edit yours.

http://www.code400.com/iserieswebsite.php

the line ==> PASS /* /Web/*
tells the server to look for folder Web for your index page
(by the way "#" = commented out)
create this folder by typing on command line

MD Web

This will make directory Web
you can use iseries navigator to see this it will be under
root/Web.

you can see it from the green screen by typing

WRKLNK

We will take your personal site http://www.quadrapet.com and place it on the Iseries. The Java script will also function here.

I have attached your modified site...Please drop this into folder
Web.

Once you modifiy your config file then start the webserver

STRTCPSVR *HTTP

Let me know when you get to this point

Thanks

http

One problem
when we do this line in the config:
Exec /cgi-bin/* /QSYS.LIB/CGI_BIN.LIB/*.PGM %%EBC
the editor says this is an invalid command, everything else is good...

[sidewinds]

http

also when I do
WRKLNK and option 5 on the web directory I created it tells me
Cannot find object to match specified name
not sure if this a problem or not...
Thanks again

[sidewinds]

http

I now have the 'web' directory created and have dropped index.html and the images folder in there.

You worked for Roland? Awesome!!
I have roland keyboards and also my home studio is a BR1180CD
Love it!

[jamief]

Okay let me try to catch up

I loved Roland great place to work super products.


Case is important here i believe folder should be Web


Okay dont worry bout this
Exec /cgi-bin/* /QSYS.LIB/CGI_BIN.LIB/*.PGM %%EBCDIC%%

Also above line says there has to be library on Iseries
name CGI_BIN (you can name this whatever)
lets create this

 CRTLIB CGI_BIN

It is very important to our CGI but not so important to getting the server up.


also when I do
WRKLNK and option 5 on the web directory I created it tells me
Cannot find object to match specified name
not sure if this a problem or not...


Above okay cause it was MT

So now that the page is in folder we need to start the web server

strtcpsvr *HTTP

Then open up explorer and type

http://YourIseriesIp

you should see your page


thanks

[sidewinds]

Awesome it works.
I'll post my original question on monday....
Thanks for everything, enjoy the cold this weekend...

[jamief]

no need for that

But you better post an image of your site running on Iseries.

Monday I can help you create the CGI stuff.

Take Care

This has come in very helpful.

I just have a couple of requests.

Where can i find out the meaning behind the syntax of the HTTP configuration?

Also, I have a problem using the web based HTTP Administration web page. It won't come up

[jamief]

try this link it should help

http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/access/web/c4155180.html#CFGACCWEB

also check this out

http://www.code400.com/iserieswebsite.php

let me know if you need more.

Here is a screen shot of the Web admin for HTTP on the 400

Error: 500
Location: /HTTPAdmin/Frame/SetupNav/Intro
Internal Servlet Error:


That is on the opening screen

and when i try to configure a new server i either get an error or i am told that i don't have authority.

I'm signing on as QSECOFR for this since i am the SOLE proprietor of our AS/400's web workings

[jamief]

you need more than just qsecofr

You need special authority

CHGUSRPRF 

 Special authority  . . . . . . .   *IOSYSCFG

and you need special authority *SYSADM to change your password.


I believe you donot have *IOSYSCFG special authority


Jamie

[wgatchell]

no dice.

Same error

Error: 500
Location: /HTTPAdmin/Frame/SetupNav/Intro
Internal Servlet Error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/ibm/as400/httpsvr/portal/WizardValidation

[jamief]

this may be a dumb question but.....

did you start the *HTTP server

and is there an admin session running?
and what version are you running of OS400?

Also if you cant get to the gui you can copy the HTTP config from this site and setup your config with WRKHTTPCFG.

each server definition is store in member(s) in file QATMHTTPC

 QHTTPSVR       QSYS        SBS      .0                   DEQW    
   ADMIN        QTMHHTTP    BCH      .0  PGM-QZHBHTTP     SIGW    
   ADMIN        QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZSRLOG      SIGW    
   ADMIN        QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZSRHTTP     SIGW    
   DEFAULT      QTMHHTTP    BCH      .0  PGM-QZHBHTTP     CNDW    
   DEFAULT      QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZHBHJOB     TIMW    
   DEFAULT      QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZHBHJOB     TIMW    
   DEFAULT      QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZHBHJOB     TIMW    
   DEFAULT      QTMHHTTP    BCI      .0  PGM-QZHBHJOB     TIMW

[wgatchell]

this is what mine looks like

QHTTPSVR QSYS SBS .0 DEQW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCH .0 PGM-QZHBHTTP SIGW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZSRLOG SIGW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZSRHTTP SIGW
ADMIN QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QYUNLANG TIMW
DEFAULT QTMHHTTP BCH .0 PGM-QZHBHTTP CNDW
DEFAULT QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZHBHJOB TIMW
DEFAULT QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZHBHJOB TIMW
DEFAULT QTMHHTTP BCI .0 PGM-QZHBHJOB TIMW

all i'm trying to do is configure the generic HTTP server so that i can then move on to the SSL set up.

This is ridiculous. It shouldn't be this hard.

[jamief]

Once its set up its done this is the hard part.

All downhill after setup
