CHAPTER 16 USING DOMINO AS A WEB SERVER

Upgrading from a previous version of the plug-in
If you have existing Domino servers using older versions of the IBM HTTP Server plug-in, you can upgrade them to the new plug-in using the IBM Web Administration for iSeries interface. The IBM Web Administration for iSeries interface automatically updates the plug-in configuration to use the latest plug-in service program installed on the system the first time you edit your configuration settings and save the changes.

Note If you have existing Domino servers using an older version of the plug-in and do not wish to upgrade them to the new plug-in, see "Maintaining multiple versions of the plug-in on the same system."

To upgrade to the latest version of the IBM HTTP Server plug-in for Domino, follow these steps:

1. Install the required PTFs. See "Requirements for the IBM HTTP Server plug-in for Domino" for more information.

2. If the adminstrative HTTP server on your system is not already running, start it by entering the following command on a CL command line:


3. Access the IBM Web Administration for iSeries interface by entering the following into the location bar of a Web browser:
4. Select the Manage tab and then the HTTP Servers tab.

5. Select your HTTP server from the Server menu.

6. Click Domino Application Server in the left navigation pane.

7. (Optional) At this point, you may wish to review the plug-in configuration settings to see if any changes are necessary.

8. Click Apply and then OK. Any changes you made to your plug-in configuration are saved, and the plug-in configuration is automatically upgraded to the latest plug-in installed on the system.

9. Restart the HTTP server so that the changes take effect.

10. Verify that the new plug-in is working as expected. You should be able to access files on the Domino server through the IBM HTTP Server (powered by Apache) port.
