Follow these steps to download and install the Telecom Web Services Server (TWSS)
plug-in for WebSphere® Integration Developer (WID).
Before you begin
You must have completed the following steps:
- Obtained and installed the appropriate version of WebSphere Integration Developer
- Updated the WID tooling
to Version 6.1.0.102 or
later
About this task
The TWSS plug-in for
WID includes
the following components:
- Access Gateway
default flow mediation project interchange files that can be imported
into WID for
customization
- TWSS mediation primitive plug-ins that extend the WID
mediation flow editor palette with custom mediation primitives that
have been included in the Access Gateway
default flows
- Post-processing scripts that must be run against customized Access Gateway
default flow EAR files that are exported from WID
(the scripts re-add deployment code that is overwritten by WID
tooling when the mediation project interchange file is imported into WID)
In the TWSS
WID installer,
the
WID
plug-in is on a separate CD from the TWSS base installer and the
TWSS services installer. The following directory structure is on
the CD:
/widplugin
/Linux
setup
twss_wid_install.rsp
twss_wid_uninstall.rsp
/Linuxppc
setup
twss_wid_install.rsp
twss_wid_uninstall.rsp
/Win32
setup.exe
twss_wid_install.rsp
twss_wid_uninstall.rsp
To download and install the Telecom Web Services Server plug-in
for WID, follow these steps.
- Stop the WID servers,
such as the WebSphere ESB server.
- Shut down WID.
The TWSS plug-in installer for WID
cannot programmatically shut down the WID
workbench. Therefore, you must close and exit WID
manually.
If the plug-in installer continues to display warnings
that WID
is still started after you have shut it down, additional IBM® Rational® products may be sharing common
executable code with WID .
The IBM Rational Software Development Platform
(RSDP) is a common development environment that is shared by several
products, including WID, Rational Application Developer, Rational Software Architect,
and others. If you install any of these products, the RSDP is installed
automatically, but it is installed only once. As a result, if WID
was installed first, it shares its development platform with other Rational products.
Stop
any other Rational products
before continuing with the installation of the Telecom Web Services Server plug-in
for WID.
- Download the Telecom Web Services Server plug-in
for WID, TWSS_WIDPlugin_C14CAEN.zip,
to a temporary directory. The WID
plug-ins installer is a separate CD image that is part of the Telecom Web Services Server product
offering.
- Extract (unzip) the contents of the file.
- Open the /WIDPlugin directory and
navigate to the directory for the operating system where WID is
installed–for example, /Linux or /Win32.
- Launch the setup routine to begin the
installation.
- The Welcome panel displays English as the default. Click OK.
- After the installer initializes, click Next through
the License Agreement and Overview windows.
- When you are prompted for the WebSphere Server home directory, browse
to the WID_home directory.
Then click Next.
- When you are prompted to select which features to install,
check the box for TWSS WID plug-in. Then click Next.
- Verify the installation path and the features you have
selected. When you are satisfied with the selections, click Next.
- When the installation has completed, click Finish.
