Webspher server ports not behaving as expected

In WAS, the admin console is usually accessed at the url : https://localhost:9043/console. Now I just wanted to know where from this 9043 came about. So I go to Servers--> Application Servers --> server1 --> Ports and expect to see 9043 as one of the ports listed. There is: WC_adminhost : 9060 and WC_adminhost_secure :9043. So far so good.

My question is: if https://localhost:9043/console brings up the page, why does http://localhost:9060/console gives an error page?

Solution

  • I guess the naming is a little confusing, but here is your answer. In order to get to admin console, there are two URLs:

    http://localhost:9060/admin/ (shortened) 
http://localhost:9060/ibm/console

    there are no page define as /console, so I would expect you to get 404.

    Then if your server is secure, you are redirected to port 9043
