IBM provides us 2 ways to install IBM WAS. One way is one-step method, that is you just install WAS by executing setup file in your CD then you can follow the instruction to install IBM java JDK, IBM HTTP server, DB2 nad Websphere Application Server. The another method is install these necessary products separately.

As 3.0 version, one-step installation always fails. Although you can use webshpere 3.5 in you PC on your company machines which can have enough money to upgrade his hardware, 3.5 verison needs 256m memory at least and 3.0 just need 128M. So if you only use 3.0 verion in you home PC, 3.0version is enough good for you, becoz there is no great improvment not only in functions but also presentation in 3.5 Verion.

Concerning the above, I introduce the installation of WAS3.0 here becoz many friends who just began to study this product complain to me that installtion is difficult.

Of coz, if you have enough money to update your computer, you can install 3.5verison in windoes NT or Windows2000 just by executing the one-step file.

OK, let's go!

Background
Hardware: p3 733, 128M memory, 20G harddrive, NIC(networking interface card), CD-ROM
OS: NT server 4.0

Steps
Step 0:
0.1) you have to login with an account who has administrative right. It is better for you to create a new one before installation then login with the new account.
0.2) setup the NIC and assign IP address for your NIC. Then modify the LMHost and Host file( stored in the windows system path) to your prefer one. Forexample:

#
# Test host name
#
# default local host name
127.0.0.1 localhost
# you set your preper one
10.0.0.1 george.webserver

Of couse, it is better to also setup up your DNS as you expect. If you havenot a NIC in your machine, you can use the MS LOOKUP tool to setup a virtual NICif you have trouble to do that, plz post your comments in the forum, i will explain it later.

Ok, now you can install your 5-step(not 1-step) websphere installation!

Steps:

Step 1. setup IBM JDK1.1.8
Step 2. setup IBM HTTP server
Step 3. setup IBM DB2 5.2 and Fixpack11
Step 4. setup IBM Websphere App. srever3.0
Step 5. Test your installation

Tips:

1) the one-step package, i think, is not a very good idea to install(for 3.0v), so I recommend you to install each component seperately by choosing each setup.exe file of the component from the one-step package directory.

2) you must install the IBM JDK. Because of the business competence between Sun and IBM, if you install Sun JDK, you can not install websphere successfully.

3) it's best to test your HTTP server after installing it. I recommend you modify the HTTP setup file. You can find it in the ibm http server\admin\. Scoll down the file until you find the ServerName option, comment out the # signal then modify the ServerName your server name as you set in your Host or LMHost file. OK, now, restart your machine. Fill in the servername in the NETSCAPE Location text field, you should see a page appear then choose the first highlight.

4) So far, You still havenot entered the HTTP administrative setup, so you have to set the
UserID and Password for HTTP administrative manager. Plz type the following command in the command line: http_server_path\config\htpasswd -c userID Password.
Then you should configure the ServerName of the web server by modifying the ServerName property in the httpd.conf file to your domain name. Anyway, after setting them , you can enter the administrative manager page now.

5)Setting up DB2 is easy, IF you still can't install it, plz tell me.

After these setup, you can continue to setup WAS actually then I will give you 2 sample examples to test your installation.
