Packaging the Liberty profile server

  • 02 Dec, 2015

A compressed file of your Liberty profile containing a server runtime environment, server configuration, and applications can be created using the included packaging wizard. Because a Liberty profile server is lightweight, it is useful to package up applications and the server in a compressed file. You can then store this package, distribute it to colleagues, use it to deploy the application to a different location or to another machine.

To package your Liberty profile environment:

  1. Stop the server.

  2. Right-click your Liberty profile server, and select Utilities > Package Server.

  3. In the Archive field on the Package Server panel, type a filename and path for your archive package, or click Browse to locate a filename and path. This filename can include a full path name.

  4. In the Include field, select one of these options, depending on what you want in your packaged file:

    • All server content, which includes binary files
    • Only server configuration and applications
  5. Click Finish

Enabling CORS will allow JavaScript clients to make requests against your application on the Liberty server even if the client and the server are on two different domains.
