After installing ArcIMS, you must configure your Web server for ArcIMS. If your Web server is not operational, contact your system administrator before you proceed. See www.bea.com for information on problems with WebLogic. Follow these steps to configure WebLogic 8.1 for ArcIMS:
During the ArcIMS Post Installation:
ArcIMS Configuration: On the dialog to select your Website and Output directories, browse to this path: <Bea WebLogic Installation Directory>\user_projects\applications\<domain>\DefaultWebApp
Web Server-Servlet Engine Configuration: Choose I will manually configure my Web server/servlet engine.
Complete the post installation setup
Navigate to <ArcIMS Installation Directory>\ArcIMS\Connectors\Servlet, and copy the following items to the <Bea WebLogic Installation Directory>\user_projects\applications\<domain>\DefaultWebApp\WEB-INF\classes.
Note: You may need to create a classes directory.
com directory
Esrimap_prop
ServletConnector_Res.properties
ServletConnector_Res_en_US.properties
WMSEsrimap_prop
In Notepad, open <Bea WebLogic Installation Directory>\user_projects\esri\applications\DefaultWebApp\WEB-INF\classes\Esrimap_prop and edit APPSMACHINE to reflect your ArcIMS Host name.
In the WEB-INF directory, open web.xml in a text editor. Add the following text under <web-app>:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Esrimap</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.esri.esrimap.Esrimap</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Esrimap</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/com.esri.esrimap.Esrimap/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
In the same file under <welcome-file-list> insert
<welcome-file>default.htm</welcome-file>
<welcome-file>default.html</welcome-file>
Save and close the file.
Start WebLogic Administration Console. In your Web browser, type: http://localhost/console and login when prompted.
In the left-hand panel, click Deployments to expand it.
Click Web Application Modules to expand it.
Click DefaultWebApp.
In the right-hand panel, click the Descriptor tab and check the box labeled "Index Directory enabled". Click Apply when you have finished.
Close the WebLogic Server console.
Restart the WebLogic Server.
If you don't plan to use the ArcIMS Manager, skip to Using the Diagnostics tool to test your ArcIMS installation.
In the Services window, Stop ArcIMS Tasker, ArcIMS Monitor, and ArcIMS Application Server in that order.
Navigate to <ArcIMS Installation Directory>\ArcIMS and copy the Manager directory to <Bea WebLogic Installation Directory>\user_projects\applications\<domain>\DefaultWebApp\
Start ArcIMS Application Server, ArcIMS Monitor, and ArcIMS Tasker in that order and close the Services window.
To verify that ArcIMS Manager was configured correctly, go to http://localhost/manager in a Web browser.
Verify that your ArcIMS installation was successful
a. Click Start > Programs > ArcGIS > ArcIMS > ArcIMS Diagnostics. The ArcIMS Diagnostics tool displays.
b. Select your Web server protocol, type your Web server name including domain, and type your port number. The default is 80.
c. Click 1 to test the ArcIMS Servlet Connector and 2 to test the ArcIMS Application Server.
If these tests are successful, your ArcIMS Application Server and ArcIMS Servlet Connector are configured correctly.
If you receive an error message, select the error number in the dropdown list and click View. The error number and a description display. Follow the instructions in the description to fix the problem and try the Diagnostics tool again.
