<h1 class="topictitle1">Getting started with the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span></h1>
<div><p>This topic provides everything you need to know to get started
with HTTP Server and the <span>IBM<sup>®</sup> Web Administration for i5/OS™ interface</span>,
quickly.</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> Information
for this topic supports the latest PTF levels for HTTP Server for i5/OS .
It is recommended that you install the latest PTFs to upgrade to the latest
level of the HTTP Server for i5/OS. Some of the topics documented here are
not available prior to this update. See <a href="http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.html" target="_blank">http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/http/services/service.htm</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> for more information. </div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Step 1: Install</h4><p>Three easy steps to get you on your
way to using the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
</p>
<ol><li>Your first step is to install the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
See <a href="rzaieinstalling.htm">Install and test the HTTP Server</a> for more information.</li>
<li>Make sure you have the correct user profiles and required authorities
for HTTP Server. See <a href="rzaiesetauth.htm">User profiles and required authorities for HTTP Server</a> for
more information. </li>
<li>Finally, test your installation of the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>.
See <a href="rzaieinstalling.htm#rzaieinstalling__pba">Test the installation of HTTP Server (powered by Apache)</a> for
more information. </li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Step 2: Set up an HTTP Server (powered by Apache) instance</h4><p>Once
the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span> is ready, it
is time to set up your first HTTP Server (powered by Apache) instance. </p>
<p>Use the <strong>Create HTTP
Server wizard</strong> to quickly create a working HTTP Server (powered by Apache)
configuration. </p>
<ol><li>Start the IBM iSeries™ Tasks
page. <p><strong>Non-secure connection</strong>: http://your.server.name:2001/ </p>
<div class="p"><strong>Secure
connection</strong>: https://your.server.name:2010/ <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> *ADMIN HTTP server for
SSL configuration is required for secure connections. For more information,
see <a href="rzaieconfigssladmin.htm">Set up SSL for the administration (ADMIN) server for HTTP Server</a></div>
</div>
</li>
<li>Click <strong>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS™</strong></li>
<li>Click the <strong>Setup</strong> tab. </li>
<li>Expand <strong>Common Tasks and Wizards</strong>.<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> By default, all lists are
expanded. If you collapse any list, the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span> displays
the list as collapsed the next time you view it. </div>
</li>
<li>Click <strong>Create HTTP Server</strong>. </li>
<li>Enter a name to identify your HTTP Server (powered by Apache). This name
is used later to configure and administer your server. Enter a server description
to help identify your server.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>. </li>
<li>Enter the server root. The server root is the base directory for your
HTTP Server. Within this directory, the wizard creates subdirectories for
your logs, and configuration information. If the server root does not exist,
the <strong>Create HTTP Server wizard</strong> creates one for you. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>. </li>
<li>Enter the document root. The document root is the directory from which
your documents are served by your HTTP Server. If the directory root does
not exist, the <strong>Create HTTP Server wizard</strong> creates one for you. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>. </li>
<li>Leave the IP address list as <strong>All addresses</strong>. You may select a specific
IP address if you so choose. </li>
<li>Enter a port number. By default, the port is 80. This is the port your
Web site runs (or "listens on"). It is suggested you enter a different port
other than 80 because a port can only be used by one server at any time. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>. </li>
<li>Select <strong>Yes</strong> or <strong>No</strong> for the <strong>Create HTTP Server wizards</strong> to
create an access log. The access log contains information about requests made
to your HTTP Server. This information is useful for analyzing who is accessing
your Web site and how many requests have been made during a specific period
of time. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>. </li>
<li>Specify how long you want to keep the error and access log files. Select <strong>Keep,
do not delete</strong> or <strong>Delete based upon age</strong>.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Next</strong>.</li>
<li>The <strong>Create HTTP Server wizard</strong> displays a summary of HTTP Server
(powered by Apache) configuration it creates. If you want to change an entry,
simply click <strong>Back</strong>. </li>
<li>Click <strong>Finish</strong> and HTTP Server (powered by Apache) is created. </li>
</ol>

</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Step 3: Start and test your HTTP Server (powered by Apache)</h4><p>After
using the <strong>Create HTTP Server wizard</strong>, it is time to start your Web server
and go live. </p>
<ol><li>Click the <strong>Start icon</strong> next to the <strong>Server list</strong>. </li>
<li>Click the Refresh icon and check if the server status is still shown as
"Running". <p>If your HTTP Server (powered by Apache) does not start, see <a href="rzaietrouble.htm">Troubleshoot</a>.</p>
</li>
<li>Open another Web browser of your choice (see <a href="rzaieinstalling.htm#rzaieinstalling__web">Web browser requirements</a>) and go to <samp class="codeph">http://<em>your.server.name</em>:<em>port</em>/</samp> where <em>your.server.name</em> is
the name of your i5/OS server and <em>port</em> is the port number you entered
in the <strong>Create HTTP Server wizard</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>The supplied HTML example welcome page is displayed. </p>
<p>When
you have finished this preliminary work with the <span>IBM Web Administration for i5/OS interface</span>,
expand your HTTP server capabilities. See the <a href="rzaiescenarios.htm">Scenarios for HTTP Server</a> for more information.</p>
