Registering a Sun Java System Web Server

See Also

In this version of the IDE, the plugin for the Sun Java System Web Server is for Sun JavaTM System Web Server 7.0. Before you can start developing and deploying applications to a server, you must register your server with the IDE.

You can have multiple instances of the Sun Java System Web Server registered with the IDE, but you must first specify the local folder that contains the local installation of the Sun Java System Web Server. You only need to specify the location of the local installation once.

To register an instance of a Sun Java System Web Server:

  1. Choose Tools > Server Manager, and in the Server Manager, click Add Server. The Add Server Instance wizard starts.
  2. In the Choose Server page, do the following:
    1. From the Server drop-down list, select Sun Java System Web Server 7.0.
    2. In the Name field, type a name for the server instance.
      This name is used to identify the server in the IDE.
    3. Click Next.
      The Server Location and Configuration page opens.
  3. In the Installation Directory field, use the Browse button to navigate to and select the Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 installation directory.
  4. If you are registering a remote server, select the Remote Server checkbox and in the Admin Host field, type the host name for the server.
  5. In the Admin Port field, type the port number for the server.
  6. If the port is not an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) port, clear the SSL Port checkbox.
  7. In the Username and Password fields, type the user name and password for the server.
  8. Click Finish.
  9. If you started the Add Server Instance wizard from the Server Manager, click Close in the Server Manager dialog box.
    The IDE displays a server node for your application server in the Runtime window under the Servers node.
