Redirecting /admin to /ibm/console

Troubleshooting


Problem

After installing fixpack 7.0.0.39, 8.0.0.11, or 8.5.5.6 and later, the /admin url does not forward to /ibm/console and Error 404: SRVE0190E is displayed on the browser.

Symptom

When using the following urls:
http://hostname:unsecureport/admin
https://hostname:secureport/admin
This error is seen
 
Error 404: SRVE0190E: File not found: {0}

In fixpack 7.0.0.39, 8.0.0.11, and 8.5.5.6, the web.xml for adminredirector.war was updated to work correctly when the disallowServeServletByClassname is defaulted to true. The new web.xml is used when new profiles are created after installing the fixpack. Profiles that existed before installing the fixpack need to be updated by running the script attached to this document.

Diagnosing The Problem

/admin fails to redirect to /ibm/console and

Error 404: SRVE0190E: File not found: {0}


is displayed on the console.

Resolving The Problem

The admin console can always be reached with

http(s)://hostname:port/ibm/console

OR you can follow the directions below to update the isclite application on each dmgr/standalone application server profile.

The admin console will be restarted after completing the steps below. Ensure that all users have logged out of the console before beginning.

These steps need to be completed using the profile where the console is running. This will be the deployment manager profile for federated environments and the application server profile for stand-alone servers.

1) Open a command-prompt or terminal window and navigate to the <profile-name>/bin directory.

2) Copy the provided script to this directory

3) Run one of the following commands:


    • Windows: wsadmin.bat -lang jython -f redirectUpdate.py

      Unix: ./wsadmin.sh -lang jython -f redirectUpdate.py

    • Note: Depending upon your environment, you may need to pass the following arguments:
      • -user <username>
        -password <password>


NOTE: If the admin console (isclite) contains certain product extensions, the provided script WILL NOT run. When PI51061 becomes available, the script will be modified to allow it to run on all environments.
