I have a question regarding how to install worklight server on top of websphere application server in unix environment.
I have a worklight project war file and I have to deploy this war file in websphere server.
As Gas mentioned, your answer is found online. Because WebSphere is Java-based, the instructions are likely to be the same no matter the operating system used. You should follow the instructions provided in the IBM Worklight Knowledge Center.
Assuming you are running the latest IBM Worklight 6.2.0.01 release, you can read the instructions here: Installing Worklight Server

We are trying to get started with IBM Liberty server for some batch processing. I installed Eclipse 20.6 build and then from market place installed IBM Websphere Liberty Profile, Developer tools.
Now, when i try to go to Help --> Install Websphere Software..
i get this error:
"The WebSphere software catalog server is not available"
My proxy are set properly in eclipse. I am not sure what to do and been googling for hours now, any help will be appreciated.
Our developers currently use the IBM RAD 8.5 to develop web applications (No enterprise Java beans (No J2EE), use Spring framework). The server team is planning to upgrade WebSphere from version 8 to version 9. Last I checked in the servers tab, RAD 8.5 supports WAS version 8, 8.5, and 8.5 Liberty profile. See screenshot.
Is it possible to continue to develop in RAD 8.5, and deploy to WebSphere 9 in the server environment? What kind of snag would I expect to run into? e.g. Assemble the WAR file in RAD 8.5, and deploy the WAR file in WAS 9.
Would there be any problem I should anticipate in the deployment descriptor? e.g. files like web.xml and application.xml?
Moving forward, is it better to use other IDE to do software development if we are not planning to upgrade RAD 8.5 to a newer version? Would MyEclipse(variant of Eclipse with better server support) or Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers (oxygen) suffice? Do I also need the liberty profile?

What kind of issues should I be expecting? Or continue using RAD 8.5 would be a better option?
Here are some of the stackoverflow links I had checked already. There are pretty high level.

Thanks.
In my experience I could not use RAD 8.5 to control a v9 server. I could not use Java 8 in RAD 8.5. I would not expect RAD 8.5 to know about the newer versions of JPA, JAX-RS and other things in v9. You could continue to develop jee6 apps on a v8.5 server and then move them manually to a v9 server.
Liberty is worth a look but is not completely interchangeable. Liberty has features that traditional does not (MicroProfile) and lacks some older things that traditional has (JAX-RPC).
You might check out the WebSphere Developer Tools for Eclipse that have support for traditional v9. They're not as full featured as RAD but might be enough. More info is at https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/was_beta/com.ibm.websphere.wdt.doc/topics/wdt_overview.htm
Adding to the information provided by Bruce, IBM had introduced OpenLiberty where one can deploy the war file built with RAD. Deploying to other application server (e.g. tomcatEE
) is possible, but it would require some work. OpenLiberty should be closest to the IBM Websphere in terms of setup and architecture.
Here are some links that provide more information.

I have zero experience with Websphere MQ Messenger. I need to build a .NET application that will read from an 7.1 MQ Series queue, manipulate the message and write it to another queue.
I want to try and build a POC to do this. Is it possible to install a Websphere MQ server and client on a non networked Windows 7 machine to build this POC. If so, what MQ software do I need and are their trial versions available?
Thanks
You can install WebSphere MQ on a stand alone machine. Both queue manager and your .NET application must run on the same machine in that case. Download WMQ v7.5 server installation from IBM site. While installing choose to install Windows Client also. Server component is installed by default. After installation use WebSphere MQ Explorer to create queue manager. Many .NET samples are shipped with the product and you can find them in tools directory of WMQ. installation.
I have downloaded the bellow rar file from IBM site. But I dont know how to install. Please advice me how can I install this WebSphere Application Server V8.5.
The InfoCenter is your best friend when asking questions about most IBM products.

The installation guide you want should be there.
since WebSphere 8.0 the default install process should be done using IBM Installation manager.
IM FAQ: http://www-01.ibm.com/software/rational/installmgr/faq.html
Download latest IM from: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24032358
After that all you have to do is launch the Installation Manager and point a repository to your WebSphere download directory. IM will than have a step by step wizard that will guide you through the installation process.
like the title...
I want to find was7 server adapter for springsource toos.
any body know where I must download the software ??? thanks
This was the case, but IBM has since release WebSphere Application Server tools edition and has donated a server adapter to the Eclipse market place. This will cover WAS 7, 8 and 8.5 alpha.

AFAIK, you still can't get it for free, you have to get a commercial IDE (RAD, MyEclipse) for that. See this previous answer and this more recent discussion.
