Configuring OpenEdge Web Services
6–6
To create a new WSA instance:
1. Click Resources in the management console menu bar. The main resource types appear in
the list frame.
2. In the Details frame, click New Resource Monitor. The New Resource Monitor page
appears.
3. Click WebServices Adapter. The WebServices Adapter Configuration page appears.
4. Type the name of the new Web Services Adapter in the New Web Services name field.
Note: The Web Services Adapter name is case sensitive and can include any character
except a period (.) or square brackets ([ ]). The name must be unique among all
configured NameServer names.
5. Type the URL in the Url field.
This is a URL that directly addresses the WSA instance on the Internet and serves as the
root for other URLs required to access Web services and other functions of the WSA.
Form the root URL according to the following format:
http://host[:port][/jse-context]/webapp-context/servlet-instance
Where:
• host — The name of the machine where the WSA is installed (Default: localhost).
• port — The HTTP port number on the WSA machine (Default: 80).
• jse-context — The JSE context path name is present only when you have a Web
server between your Java Servlet Engine (JSE) and the client application. It specifies
the path name that you define in your Web server configuration to send client
requests to your JSE.
• webapp-context — The Web application context path name always exists and
specifies the path name that you define in your JSE configuration to identify the
WSA as a servlet application.
• servlet-instance — The servlet-mapping name for the WSA instance (WSA Web
application) specified in
OpenEdge-install-dir\servlets\wsa\WEB-INF\web.xml. This is also the name by
which the WSA instance appears in the Web Services Adapter folder in the
management console.
