Deploy a Service Interface

To successfully deploy our Web services service interface, we must be sure that the CICSCA enterprise server is started, and then run the deployment process to copy all of the appropriate service interface files to the deployment area, enabling the deployed service to run.

  1. On the Server Explorer, expand Micro Focus Servers > localhost to show a list of available enterprise servers.
  2. Check to be sure that the CICSCA enterprise server is started by right-clicking CICSCA. If it is stopped, click Start.
  3. If any enterprise servers other than CICSCA show as being started, right-click each; then click Stop to stop them.
  4. From the Solution Explorer, right-click the CICSCommareaWS service interface; then click Deploy.

    The Output window shows the progression of the deployment process. If deployment was successful, you should see a message indicating success.

Note: If deployment ever fails, a message appears in the output window indicating why it failed. Also, the failure message contains the path to the deployment log file. You can type the address into a browser and view the log file from there.
