Fun with IBM HTTP Server

I was getting HTTP 404 for: -

https://10.222.36.21:8443/teamserver/faces/login.jsp

Looking at the IHS  error.log, I saw: -

[Thu Feb 28 11:39:16 2013] [error] [client 28.103.96.87] File does not exist: /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/htdocsext/teamserver

and the Plugin log ( with LogLevel="Error" in plugin-cfg.xml ): -

This led me to check the WAS Virtual Hosts ( via the WAS ISC -> Environment -> Virtual hosts -> default_host ) and realised that 9443 was there but 8443 was NOT :-)

I changed it, regenerated the plugin, restarted the cluster and …. job done :-)

Can you say "Doh!" ?
