The Web Administrator can run diagnostic tests on a LANSA Web Server Extension configuration file to assist in troubleshooting and offers a one-stop-place for testing and changing entries in the configuration file.

Because the test interacts with the LANSA Web Server Extension and IIS, unsaved changes to the configuration file must first be saved and IIS restarted before the test can commence. Some of the issues this testing tool can help diagnosing are:

  • incorrect LANSA System
  • LANSA Listener not started
  • incorrect TCP/IP hostname and/or port number  
  • incorrect user ID
  • incorrect password or expired password
  • database authorization.

The testing tool collects information about the backend, such as platform (IBM i, Windows or Linux), LANSA version and SP level, and Web System name (also known as Web Alias), if applicable. It submits About URLs (for example: http://localhost:8080/lansa/lansaweb?aboutImage Removed) to the Web Server and displays the HTTP Status Code and Status Text. All information is displayed in an easy to read and easy to navigate way. Details in the configuration file can be changed, changes can be saved, IIS can be restarted and the test can be restarted from within the testing tool.

Click the Run Test button to start the test.

A successful test might look like this:
