Patch 120954-xx Post Install Question

Hi,

The Patch 2 rev to Access Manager 2005Q4 creates an "amsilent" file which grabs a bunch of relevant paramters to properly configure. One of these parameters on approx line 80 is a bit vague:

### ADMIN_PORT is the port on which the administration

### instance will listen for connections.

I know this may seem OBVIOUS to people who have done this many times, but ADMIN_PORT is the port for the administration instance of WHAT?

Sun Webserver 6.1 ?

Sun DS 5.x ?

Something else?

It would seem such a trivial thing to add something more useful in the comment section of this file.

Thanks,

Phil

The ADMIN_PORT is the port number of the administration instance for the web container under which Access Manager will be running. If you do a search for $ADMIN_PORT you can see all of the places in the amsilent file where it is being referenced.

e.g. VARIABLE_NAME=$ADMIN_PORT

And then if you look at the comments for VARIABLE_NAME you'll get an actual description of what it is.

Now which of these many variables applies to you depends on which WEB_CONTAINER you have specified. If you specified a WEB_CONTAINER=WS6 (Sun One Web Server 6.1) then the WS61_ADMINPORT is the one that actually applies to your setup.

Hope this helps clear things up... Jason
