If you are importing applications from a WebSphere® Application
Server Liberty
profile (WebSphere Application
Server Version
8.5 and higher), manual JSP precompilation is required (the Liberty
profile does not include a stand-alone JSP compiler). This topic describes
the steps required for setting up manual JSP precompilation.
Procedure
- Follow the instructions for creating a Liberty profile
server at the WebSphere Application
Server Network
Deployment Knowledge Center. For WebSphere Application
Server Version
8.5.5, see the Creating a Liberty profile server by using developer
tools topic.
- In the Liberty profile server.xml file,
add this to the
server description section: <jspEngine prepareJSPs="0"/>
<webContainer deferServletLoad="false"/>
For
example:
<server description="new server">
<!-- Enable features -->
<featureManager>
<feature>jsp-2.2</feature>
<feature>localConnector-1.0</feature>
<feature>appSecurity-2.0</feature>
<feature>restConnector-1.0</feature>
</featureManager>
<!-- To access this server from a remote client
add a host attribute to the following element,
e.g. host="*" -->
<httpEndpoint httpPort="9080" httpsPort="9443" id="defaultHttpEndpoint"/>
...
<jspEngine prepareJSPs="0"/>
<webContainer deferServletLoad="false"/>
...
</server>
The server.xml file
is described at the the WebSphere Application
Server Center.
For WebSphere Application
Server Version
8.5.5, see the Liberty profile: Configuration elements in the server.xml
file topic.
- Start the server in debug mode, using one of these methods:
