Web Connection User's Guide
The Lotus Go Webserver for OS/390 must be configured to
properly handle and route requests for the VisualAge server program.
The Go Webserver is designed to use HFS files in OS/390. This means
that you must create a directory to put the WSICNF file into as well as create
a symbolic link for the executable module.
In an OMVS shell, do the following:
- Create an HFS directory for the configuration file (WSICNF) and error
format file (WSIHTM). For example:
/usr/lpp/wsi.
- FTP the web server interface configuration files to the directory.
Note: | The web server interface files are installed in a webconn of the
VisualAge client. You can rename these files, for example from
abtwsi.* to mywsi.*. If you do this, you must reflect
their new location and name in the ABTWSI_BASENAME field in the
abtwsi.pro file. For example, if you renamed the files from
abtwsi* to mywsi*, you would need to point to <path>/mywsi in
the ABTWSI_BASENAME field.

- Create an external symbolic link in the Go Webserver cgi-bin directory
that links to the ABTWSAI executable, which is in an MVS load library.
For example, from your Go Webserver cgi-bin directory, ln -e ABTWSAI
abtwsai.so. For more information about creating external
symbolic links, refer to the OS/390 Open Edition MVS User's
Guide.
In TSO, do the following:
- Edit the Go Webserver start up PROC (IMWEBSRV).
- Modify the STEPLIB concatenation in IMWEBSRV to include the load library
containing ABTWSAI.
- Add the following statements to IMWEBSRV:
//ABTCNF DD PATH='/usr/lpp/wsi/abtwsi.cnf',PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)
//ABTHTM DD PATH='/usr/lpp/wsi/abtwsi.htm',PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)
//ABTLOG DD SYSOUT=*
From the Go Webserver configuration and administration page, update your
HTTP server configuration by doing the following:
- Start your web server.
- Open a web browser and point it to your server location (the hostname of
the server).
- On the Go Webserver page, select Configuration and Administration
Forms.
- On the Configuration and Administration page, select GWAPI
Application Processing.
- On the GWAPI page, for ServerInit, specify the server
initialization directive. For example:
/webserver/cgi-bin/abtwsai.so:AbtWsiServerInit
- For ServerTerm, specify the server termination
directive. For example:
/webserver/cgi-bin/abtwsai.so:AbtWsiServerTerm
- Apply the changes.
- On the Configuration and Administration page, select *Service
in the Action drop-down list.
- For the URL request template, specify
/abtwsi*.
- For Replacement file path, specify the service
directive. For example:
/webserver/cgi-bin/abtwsai.so:AbtWsiService*
- Apply the changes and restart the web server.
