Installing Domino and WebSphere on the Same Computer

     

Simply follow the installation steps described in the previous sections but install Domino on the same server used by the WebSphere server; then go to the previous section "Configuring Domino to use the WebSphere plug-in." There is no need to configure the plug-in configuration file as described previously.

You should ensure that the IBM HTTP server and/or the Microsoft Internet Information Server do not start automatically in the Windows Services control panel; otherwise , the Domino HTTP server will not be able to bind to port 80. Instead, it will exit with a message:

 

 HTTP Socket Bind Error, hostname/ip <hostname> HTTP Server: Could not bind port 80. Port may be in use 

If for some reason you do want to have both Domino and the IBM HTTP server (or another Web server) both run on the same computer, you can do this by changing the port number (for example, to 8080) that the Domino Server uses for its HTTP server in the Domino Directory (Server document, Ports, Internet Ports, Web, or TCP/IP Port Number). If you also want both HTTP servers to access the WebSphere application server, you have to add a host entry under the default_host, specifying the new port number to be used (8080). If you do not do this, the plug-in will not be able to resolve the host entry and will reject the request. The error message would be returned by the Domino server (404 ”Not Found). If you have other virtual hosts defined that you want to access, you also would have to do the same for them.

Again, you can increase the detail traced in the WebSphere plug-in log by editing the plug-in configuration file as described in the previous section, "Enabling Tracing in the Domino WebSphere DSAPI Plug-In."

Installation of DB2 UDB Release 8.1

This section describes the installation of DB2 on the WebSphere computer. The supported level of DB2 for WAS use is 6.1 plus Fix Pack 4 or higher. We show the installation for DB2 UDB Version 8.1.

Make sure you are logged on to Windows with the user ID you created earlier or another user ID with similar rights. Although this is not strictly necessary to run the install program, you will need to be logged on with this user ID when accessing DB2 after installation.

DB2 UDB can be installed either from a zip file from the IBM software Web site or from a product CD. If the installation program on the CD doesn't start automatically (or if you are installing from an unpacked zip file), you must run the setup.exe program manually.

  1. First, the Welcome screen is displayed. Click on the Install tab in the left column of the screen to begin the installation.

  2. The product selection screen is displayed next . You must select DB2 Enterprise Edition and should select DB2 Administration Client if you want to have WebSphere connect to DB2 on a remote computer in the future.

  3. You are presented with a selection of a Typical, Compact, or Custom installation. Select Typical and press Next .

  4. On the next screen, you can select where to install DB2 ( Choose Destination Location ).

  5. The installation directory can be changed to a disk with adequate space if the default drive does not have enough space. Click the Browse button to specify a new location for DB2.

  6. You are then prompted to supply a user ID and password for the DB2 administration server to run under.

    If necessary, replace the defaults provided with the user ID set up earlier. This user ID will also become the default user ID in DB2.

    Ensure that the option, Use the same values for the remaining DB2 Username and Password settings , is selected.

    Click Next to continue. A warning will be shown if you did not assign all necessary local security rights to your user, as described earlier in this chapter under, "Creating a User with Administration Rights." However, as long as you have assigned your user the right to act as part of the operating system, the DB2 installation can assign the other rights, and you can continue with the installation.

  7. The next screen displays the installation options chosen . You can review these and, if necessary, click Back to change your selections. Click Next to confirm your choices and start the installation of the program files.

    DB2 will install and configure itself. At the end of the configuration process you will be presented with the option to install the OLAP starter kit. Select Do not install the OLAP starter kit and press Continue . You will be presented with a confirmation screen. Click Finish to complete the installation.

    You may be prompted to reboot your machine. If so, do so.

By default, DB2 will display the First Steps program, which you can use to create a sample database if you wish. Creating a sample database is not necessary to continue, but it is an easy way to verify that DB2 has been installed successfully.
