Running Jython script file from host to execute on WAS docker container

[mattadamson]

Hi

I'm trying to execute a jy jython script which interacts with the WAS instance from the host ( a Mac ). What's the recommend approach to do this please?

I thought running the following would allow this

docker exec 1c844d674320 wsadmin.sh -lang jython -port 9443 -user wsadmin -password a3qJEo0O

However I get exceptions when starting

PC05249s-MacBook-Pro:~ madamson$ docker exec 1c844d674320 wsadmin.sh -lang jython -port 9443 -user wsadmin -password a3qJEo0O WASX7023E: Error creating "SOAP" connection to host "localhost"; exception information: com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.ConnectorNotAvailableException: [SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Protocol; msg=Unsupported response content type "text/html; charset=utf-8", must be: "text/xml". Response was: Error 404: com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.servlet.exception.NoTargetForURIException: No target servlet configured for uri: / ]

So perhaps this approach isn't even valid.

Many thanks

Hi @mattadamson - did you copy the jython script into the container prior to executing it?

1. Copy jython script to WAS instance container docker cp GetInfo.py :/tmp/

2. The default port of SOAP on WAS is 8879, please check SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS on ports via console, Not 9443 which is default host https port (WC_defaulthost_secure)

3. Then run script will get the correct result docker exec wsadmin.sh -port 8879 -user wsadmin -password CHANGEME -lang jython -f /tmp/GetInfo.py

thanks all! I actually found the issue was simply the port. It seems 8880 was the port required for the SOAP connector by default.

8880 is the default for standalone SOAP port, 8879 is the default for WAS ND cluster SOAP port
