Prepare the workspace

This topic explains how to prepare the workspace.


Procedure

  1. Open WebSphere Commerce Developer.

  2. From the Window menu, select Preferences > Internet > Web Browser. From the Installed Web Browsers list, select the Internet Explorer check box and click OK.

  3. Publish the consumer direct sample store.

  4. Refresh the Stores project after the publishing completes successfully.

    1. In the Enterprise Explorer view.

    2. Right-click Stores and select Refresh.

  5. Test the environment to ensure you are ready to start the tutorial:

    1. In WebSphere Commerce Developer, switch to the Server view.

    2. Right-click WebSphere Commerce Test Server and select Start if the server is stopped or Restart > Start if the server is running.

    3. After the server has started, we will see information similar to the following in the Console view of WebSphere Commerce Developer:

      A WSVR0001I: Server server1 open for e-business
      

      You can scroll up to examine the log of the startup process. Alternatively, you can monitor the server status as it starts by examining the WCDE_INSTALL/\wasprofiles\logs\server1\trace.log file.

    4. In the Enterprise Explorer view, expand the Stores > WebContent > ConsumerDirect_name.

    5. Right-click the index.jsp file and select Run As > Run on Server. If the Server Selection window displays, select Choose an existing server and click Finish.

    6. On the store language selection page that is displayed in the Web browser, click United States English.

    7. Observe the store United States English home page that is displayed.

    8. Close the browser.

    You are now ready to proceed with the tutorial.
