Question & Answer


Question

Is it possible to install IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile within IBM WebSphere Application Server 8.5.5 during IBM Sterling Order Management setup?

Cause

IBM Sterling Order Management with OIDC configuration is not supported by Traditional WebSphere Application Server. To enable OIDC, WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile must be installed.

Answer

Traditional WebSphere Application Server (tWAS) includes a Liberty license, but Liberty must be downloaded and installed separately.

The details based on WAS version are as follows:

a) For Traditional WebSphere Application Server 9.0.5.x, download Liberty 19.0.0.9 (starting with the basic installation, then upgrading to the latest version) from this link: Download WAS 9.0.5.x

b) For Traditional WebSphere Application Server Version 8.5.5.x, refer to this documentation for download instructions: Download WAS 8.5.5.x

Installing WebSphere Liberty Server:

WebSphere Liberty Server is a separate product within the WebSphere family and can be installed using Installation Manager or in archive mode. For guidance on creating and configuring the Liberty environment, refer to: Installing Liberty

Additional Resources:

For more information on setting up Liberty, consult this documentation: Setting Up Liberty

Conclusion:

WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile cannot be installed within Traditional WebSphere Application Server Version 8.5.5, as they are separate products within the WebSphere family. However, WebSphere Liberty Profile can be installed independently and configured to enable OIDC for IBM Sterling Order Management System.
