Complete the Configuration on iPlanet or Apache

After you have configured the IBM HTTP server and the proxy plug-in, you make sure the proxy plugin-cfg.xml is in the right location and restart the web server.

Follow these steps:

1. If the application server and the Web server are on different systems, copy the plugin-cfg.xml to the system where you installed the proxy plug-in. Place the copy in this location:

   websphere_home\AppServer\profiles\server_name\config\cells\websphere_cell\nodes\webserver1_node\servers\webserver1\

2. Restart the web server.

• iPlanet Web Servers: Ensure that the WebSphere plug-in (libns41_http.so) is loaded after the SiteMinder Web Agent plug-in (NSAPIWebAgent.so)

  For iPlanet 6.0 Web Servers, check the order of plug-ins in iplanet_home/https-instance/config/magnus.conf.

  For iPlanet 5.x Web Servers, copy the following lines from iplanet_home/https-instance/config/magnus.conf to iplanet_home/https-instance/config/obj.conf

  Init fn="load-modules" funcs="as_init,as_handler,as_term" shlib="/export/WebSphere/AppServer/bin/libns41_http.so"

  Init fn="as_init" bootstrap.properties="/export/WebSphere/AppServer/config/cells/plugin-cfg.xml"

  Add the following code after AuthTrans fn="SiteMinderAgent" in the obj.conf file:

  Service fn="as_handler"

• Apache Web Servers: In the Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) Support section of apache_home/config/httpd.conf, be sure that the SiteMinder Web Agent plug-in (mod2_sm.so) is loaded before the WebSphere plug-in (mod_ibm_app_server_http.so).
