Deploy a widget WAR file package to the portal

You can deploy a widget WAR file package directly to the portal.

To do this...

1. Ensure that the portal sever is running.

2. Deploy the widget WAR file package to WAS. Proceed as follows:

   1. Open the administrative console for the portal.

   2. Select Applications > Install New Application. Depending on your version of WAS, the options you click might look slightly different.

   3. Use the default settings for the individual steps, but select WebSphere_Portal as the target server mapping.

   4. After the WAR file is installed, take a note of the application name in the Name column in the list of enterprise applications.

3. Run...
   following

   to register the WAR file:

   ConfigEngine.sh|bat register-mashup-module -DApplicationName=appname -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password

After deploying the widget, you can make it available in the global toolbox as described in the topic about Configuration options for the mashups toolbox. To deregister the widget, run the following task:

ConfigEngine.sh|bat deregister-mashup-module -DApplicationName=appname -DWasPassword=password -DPortalAdminPwd=password
