Check your IBM HTTP Server version

At times, you might need to determine the version of your IBM HTTP Server installation. The following information describes how you can determine the IBM HTTP Server version and provides examples. The server versions that are provided in the output below are not necessarily the versions that are distributed with WAS.

We can also determine the IBM HTTP Server version using the versionInfo command.


Procedure

  1. Change the directory to the installation root of the Web server.

    For example, it is /opt/IBM/HTTPServer on a Solaris machine.

  2. Find the subdirectory that contains the executable. The executable for IBM HTTP Server is:

    • (Windows) //publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=/ d.exe (the previous command, apache.exe is deprecated)
    • //publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=/ d
    • (AIX) (Solaris) apachectl

  3. Issue the command with the -v option to display the version information.

    (Windows) 

    //publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=/  d.exe -v


    .///publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r0/index.jsp?topic=/  d -v

    (AIX) (Solaris) 

    ./apachectl -v


Results

The version is shown in the "Server version" field and will look something like the following: 

IBM_HTTP_Server/7.0.0.0 (Windows)
Server built: Jul 31 2008 08:41:58
or
