Viewing Web services deployment descriptors in the administrative console

This task is explains how to view the Web services client and server deployment descriptors for a deployed Web services application. We can view the bindings in the deployment descriptors.

 

Before you begin

Before we can view the deployment descriptors we need to complete all tasks required to implement a Web service, create the deployment descriptor templates that were generated by the WSDL2Java command-line tool, configure the deployment descriptors and bindings, and deploy the Web service application into WebSphere Application Server.

 

About this task

You have developed a Web service that contains all the necessary artifacts, created the deployment descriptors from the deployment descriptor templates, configured the deployment descriptors, and deployed the Web services application into WebSphere Application Server; now we can view the deployment descriptors and bindings in the administrative console.

To view the Web services client deployment descriptor extension, the Web services server deployment descriptor, and the Web services server deployment descriptor extension through the administrative console:

 

Procedure

1. Open the administrative console.

2. Click Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_instance > Manage Modules.

   • Click View Web services client deployment descriptor extension.

   • Click View Web services server deployment descriptor.

   • Click View Web services server deployment descriptor extension.

3. Click Expand All to view the deployment descriptor contents.

4. Verify deployment descriptor and bindings configurations.
