Do IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 have a web server plugin like in version 8.5? - websphere

Do IBM WebSphere Application Server 7.0 have a web server plugin like in version 8.5? or in WAS7 we need IIS as a web server.

To add to what Gas has pointed out, if you intend to use a web server in front of your WebSphere Application Server (WAS) deployment, installing the WAS HTTP Plugin on the web server is a requirement.
All versions of WAS have this requirement and offer a plugin for the following web servers:
IBM HTTP Server (IHS)
Apache HTTP Server
Domino Web server
Internet Information Services (IIS)
Sun Java Web server
The plugin itself is available on the "Supplements" image for which ever WAS bundle you're licensed for. The following document provides the appropriate WAS v7 part numbers for each OS:
Download WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0 for Windows operating systems
The "Supplements" image is Download 3 in the list, and is a two part download.
Also, here is the Plugin install parent doc from the WAS v7 Knowledge Center:
Installing Web server plug-ins

Yes, every WAS version has Plugin for most major web servers (IHS, Apache, IIS). You need to download separate package, known as Supplements. There you will find WebSphere Plugins.

how to develop msf4j-apps and deploy them in wso2ei

the about-page of wso2ei 6.1.1 (https://docs.wso2.com/display/EI611/About+this+Release)
mentioned the possibility to develop and especially to deploy msf4j apps in wso2ei:
From WSO2 EI 6.1.0 onwards, it does not ship the functionalities of
WSO2 Application Server (AS). However, you can develop applications
using MSF4J, JAX-RS or JAX-WS technologies and deploy in WSO2 EI. If
you already have applications in WAR or AAR formats, use WSO2 AS 5.3.0
or Tomcat as the server to deploy web apps. Nevertheless, WSO2 still
provides complete development and production support for WSO2 AS.
I am very interested to do this, but unfortunally I can not find any information on this topic. I would be happy to receive information and links to this topic.
You can develop a service using MSF4J and deployed it with the MSF4J profile which is available with the WSO2 EI. Sample is mentioned in Doc 1
Highlevel steps would be
Develop the MSF4J service
Put that jar file in <EI_HOME>/wso2/msf4j/deployment directory
Start the MSF4J profile in EI <EI_HOME>/wso2/msf4j/bin/carbon.sh

Deploy Web Services on Websphere Portal Server

Like we use DeployPortlet.xml file to deploy portlet on webspehre portal server, is there a similar way to deploy web services on webspehere portal server
unless they are WSRP services you cannot using xmlaccess, you would need to use the websphere appserver commands for doing it, either using the automated deployment steps using the properties files and the deployment directory, or using wsadmin to deploy them

OSGI JAX-WS Client On WebSphere Application Server

I am trying to implement an OSGI based JAX-WS WebService client on WebSphere Application Server(8.5.5). I created a web project in my RAD (Rational Application Developer) workbench and added the programming model as osgi.
After that I tried to create the webservice client from the available wsdl.
But I am getting the following error " The IBM WebSphere JAX-WS Web service runtime does not support Client projects with the OSGi Bundle facet."
Are you using JAX-WS on WebSphere Application Server traditional (i.e. not the Liberty Profile)? If so, then traditional does not support JAX-WS in OSGi Applications. The Liberty profile does support JAX-WS.
If not, then this could be a tools check that's no longer valid. I know the tools used to prevent you doing this when JAX-WS was not supported on traditional or Liberty. You could try using the latest WebSphere Developer tools from the Ecilpse Marketplace or https://wasdev.net/repo to create a simple test project to see if you hit the same problem.
I hope this helps.
