Web Apps not working under Application Server
Hi,
I am unable to see applications that I have deployed using the J2EE application server.
I am trying to use it for Communications Express but for some reason I am just unable to connect to the applications through my browser. I cannot even see the Hello application, even though this was previously working.
I know the server is up, as I can get the default index.html page and I can connect to the admin console fine - it even says the application is up and running. However, I just get a 'The requested resource (/uwc) is not available.' message when I try to connect.
I have checked all the details a dozen times, and the config scripts are all running perfect, as are all the necessary services. I believe I am up to date with patches (I am running version 2005Q4).
I am sorry but I cannot supply any more info than this as I really don't know what info is required.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

Um, ok. I wonder why you're asking here, in a Messaging forum.

Oh. So, you're saying that you can't get to CE, right?
You did restart the app server?
You did look at the log, and didn't find any error messages?
You did follow the documentation for deploying CE, down to the finest details, right?

Sorry, I really should have included that. The problem appears when the server starts up:

This has a couple of follow on errors - Error filterStart and Context startup failed due to previous errors. Then there is one more error further on - autodeployment failure while deploying the application : Component not registered.
I followed the deployment guide pretty much word for word, and like I said, it seems to be deployed OK but just won't run.

Is it something to do with the problem in this thread? http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5053745&messageID=9206714I've not done anything with Access Manager as I believed it was already configured.

I think it may be the problem in this blog post: http://blogs.sun.com/fintanr/date/200511
# 5
The solution is for a web server but I'm sure it must be the same for the app server - is there an equivalent file to server.xml?
# 6
I can claim no expertise with app server. I've never installed it, but. . .
the error message is pretty plain:
autodeployment failure while deploying the application : Component not registered.
Something isn't registered within your app server deployment. Perhaps a step missed?
# 7
I'm sure the app server installation is OK, as other applications seem to run fine. Only when Comms Express is deployed do I get these messages. I created a fresh domain, deployed the sample app, and it worked fine. I deployed CE, and the same thing as above happened although when I undeployed it, the sample app started working again.
I know there is just a reference to a class path that is missing but I don't know where to put it in (as stated in the link above, except that is for a web server container).
I am aware that this is the wrong forum in which to discuss the app server but I don't appear to be able to move the post.
