Installing Websphere Plugin

Demonstration of how to set up the IBM WebSphere Plugin and Lotus Domino to work with Microsoft IIS 7.0, 7.5 or 8.5, in order to use an existing front-end IIS Web server for forwarding HTTP requests to a back-end Domino web server, allowing users to access Domino databases through IIS.The IBM Lotus iNotes Redirect database is an application that can be used to redirect a user's browser to their iNotes mailfile based on the credentials provided by the user. One of the options available when configuring this database is the ability to enable 'Personal Options', which allows users.IBM Lotus Domino can be configured to use Windows single sign-on for Web clients (SPNEGO), which allows Web users logged on to the Active Directory domain to open applications on the Domino server from a browser, without being prompted for a password. This article attempts to address some of the. Hide Table of Contents.In many environments, it is necessary to use an existing Microsoft IIS server as the front-end Web server for transparently forwarding HTTP requests to a back-end Domino web server, effectively allowing users to access Domino databases through IIS. This is a common scenario when the IIS server is externally accessible and Domino is located in a DMZ or only accessible on the intranet.Since Domino 6.0, IBM has provided the ability to accomplish this type of configuration by installing the WebSphere Application Server plug-in for IIS on the Microsoft IIS Server.

Beginning with Lotus Domino 8.5, IBM now supports Windows Server 2008, Domino 8.5.2 offers support for Windows Server 2008 R2, and Domino 8.5.3fp4 and later offers support for Windows Server 2012. These operating systems use the Microsoft IIS 7.0, 7.5 and 8.5 releases respectively, and the administrative interface for these versions of IIS are significantly different from previous releases.

Therefore, this article attempts to organize and demonstrate the steps for setting up the WebSphere Plugin and configuring Domino to work with Microsoft IIS 7.0, 7.5, or 8.5.PrerequisitesIn order to proceed with the steps below, you will need the IBM WebSphere Application Server Plugin for IIS. Due to the frequency of updates for the WebSphere Plugin, it is no longer possible to provide the latest version with each Domino maintenance release. Therefore, this file no longer ships with Domino servers and must be downloaded from the WebSphere Application Support site.The easiest method to obtain the plugin is to extract the file from the latest Fix Pack for WebSphere Application Server, which is available for download from the following technote:Latest fix packs for WebSphere Application ServerFrom the technote above, select the link for the WebSphere Application Server (WAS) version appropriate to your environment. Then, on the subsequent webpage, scroll down to find the table in the download section and select the Windows operating system to see the downloads available.

Download the 'Plug-ins' package applicable to your processor (i.e. The package titled '32-bit x86 AMD/Intel Plug-ins' or '64-bit x86 AMD/Intel Plug-ins')You may notice that this Fix Pack was saved as a.pak file, but this file can be extracted in the same manner as a.zip archive. So, after download, expand the file and navigate the folders contained within to find the the plugin applicable to your OS.

These directives specify common URL patterns needed for accessing Domino Web applications. Note: Directives in the URIGroup section are case sensitive. If your Domino application requires additional namespaces, you can create 'Uri Name' directives for those patterns also. For illustration, the following plugin-cfg.xml file from a working environment is available to compare with your current configuration:Note: WebSphere plugins automatically reload the configuration file once a minute to pick up changes.

If you make a change and do not want to wait that long, you will need to reload the IIS Web server by restarting the World Wide Web Publishing Service from the Windows services control panel, then start the Web site from the IIS Manager.
