13.2.4 Deploying the Routing Engine on WebLogic Server

To deploy the routing engine on WebLogic Server, follow these steps:

  1. Log into the WLS console.
  2. Click Deployments > Install.
  3. Make sure that Path is set to the application deployment directory (as explained in Unpacking the routeserver.ear File).
  4. Select routeserver.ear (a directory) and click Next.
  5. Ensure that the Install this deployment as an application targeting style is selected, and click Next.
  6. In the list of potential servers to which to deploy the routing engine, select the name of the managed server that you created, and click Next.
  7. Ensure that the deployment name is routeserver, and click Finish.

After the routing engine is deployed, you can test the deployment with a set of routing engine test queries. For example, if the managed server was set up to run on port 7003, the routing engine servlet can be tested from http://localhost:7003/routeserver/.

These queries can run a variety of different types of route requests. These queries contain North American addresses, but the addresses can easily be manipulated on the web page for other data sets.
