Deploy the FWS Application on WebLogic

To deploy the FWS application on System 2 and System 5

  1. Use the WebLogic Server Console and deploy FWS. The FWS application is installed in:

    /webagent_option_pack_home/affwebservices/

    For more information about deploying a Web application, see the WebLogic documentation.

  2. Test that the Federation Web Services application is working. Open a web browser and enter:

    http://fqhn:port_number/affwebservices/assertionretriever

    where,

    fqhn

    Defines the fully qualified host name.

    port_number

    Defines the port number of the server where the Federation Web Services application is installed.

    For example:

    http://myhost.ca.com:81/affwebservices/assertionretriever

    If Federation Web Services is operating correctly, you see a message that reads:

    Assertion Retrieval Service has been successfully initialized.
    The requested servlet accepts only HTTP POST requests.
    

    This message indicates that Federation Web Services is listening for data activity. The FWS application is now deployed for the WebLogic server.

    If Federation Web Services is not operating correctly, you get a message that the Assertion Retrieval Service has failed. If the service fails, review the Federation Web Services log.

Note: For instructions on enabling trace logging for the FWS application, see Trace Logging.
