Manually configuring Lotus Domino Version 6

This task describes how to change configuration settings for Lotus Domino V6.

This topic is one of the optional procedures in Manually configuring supported Web servers.

Follow this procedure to enable the HTTP transport plug-in to work with Lotus Domino Version 6.0.2 and later. The installation wizard does not perform this modification. Perform this manual procedure.

1. Start the Domino server.

2. Access the file /names.nsf using your Web browser (for example, http://hokie2ks.raleigh.ibm.com/names.nsf). The browser prompts you for a password.

3. Give the administrator name and password.

4. Click Configuration on the left side of the page.

5. Click Servers on the left side of the page.

6. Click All Server Documents on the left side of the page.

7. Click the server that you intend to have work with WebSphere Application Server, Version 5.

8. Click Edit Server on the top-left of the center window.

9. Click Internet Protocols in the middle of the page.

10. Add the path to the Domino plug-in under DSAPI Section in the middle-right of the page. The plug-in is installed in the bin directory of the WAS installation root. If specifications for filter files for Domino Server Application Programming Interface (DSAPI) already exist, use a space to delimit the plug-in file for WebSphere Application Server.

11. Click Save and Close on the upper-left of the center window.

12. Define the location of the plugin-cfg.xml configuration file.Linux and UNIX-based platforms...

    Set the WAS_HOME environment variable to point to the WAS installation root directory.

    Windows platforms...

    Add the Plugin Config variable to the registry under the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > IBM > WebSphere Application Server > 5.1.0.0. Set the value for this variable to the location of the plugin-cfg.xml file, which is $WAS_HOME\config\cells\plugin-cfg.xml.

13. Restart the Domino server.When the server starts, information similar to the following example appears

    02/12/2001 03:05:09 PM  JVM: JVM initialized
    WAS DSAPI filter loaded
    02/12/2001 03:05:10 PM  HTTP Web Server started
    
    

You can configure Version 6 of Lotus Domino to work with WebSphere Application Server, V5.x.
