If you are running a remote or local secured WAS v6.0 or v6.1 with the Run server with resources on Server publishing option, the output of the server might not appear in the Console view and publishing to these servers might fail.

In addition, every few seconds an error message appears in the SystemOut.log files of your server, for example:

[11/3/04 16:58:18:412 CST] 0000003b RoleBasedAuth A SECJ0305I: The role-based authorization check failed for admin-authz operation ConfigService:queryConfigObjects: com.ibm.websphere.management.Session:javax.management. ObjectName:javax.management.ObjectName:javax.management.QueryExp. The user (unique ID: null_access_id) was not granted any of the following required roles: administrator, operator, monitor, configurator.
[11/3/04 16:58:18:431 CST] 0000003b FileTransferS A ADFS0107E: The file to download "/usr/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/default/config/temp/logs/sysout" does not exist.

To fix this problem

  1. Start the secured WAS v6.x.

  2. On the secured server, run redeployFileTransfer.jacl:

    cd C:/IBM/WAS70/AppServer/bin/
    ./wsadmin.bat -profile redeployFileTransfer.jacl -lang jacl -c "fileTransferAuthenticationOn Michael-DellCell01 Michael-DellNode01 server1" -user wasadmin -password wasadmin

    If you get error:

    WASX7280E: An application with name "filetransfer" does not exist.

    ...edit redeployFileTransfer.jacl comment out "exit" call. You might want to create a new error function for just the uninstall catch.

  3. Restart the server to switch from the default file transfer application to the secure file transfer application:

    1. Exit the IBM Rational Software Delivery platform.

    2. On a command prompt, navigate to...

      C:/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/bin

      ...and run...

      ./serverStatus server1
      ./stopServer server1
      ./startServer server1

    3. After the server is started, start the IBM RAD platform.

  4. Verify if redeployFileTransfer.jacl is successfully running:

    • See if the filetransferSecured.ear application started. Check...

      C:/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/logs/server1

    • Check if the filetransferSecured.ear directory is located in...

      C:/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/systemApps

 

Remove FiletransferSecured.ear

To remove filetransferSecured.ear, run redeployFileTransfer.jacl with the parameter...

fileTransferAuthenticationOff

...and then restart the server1.
