Deploying a web service using the Deployment Wizard

  1. In the Web Service Repositories view, expand the repository to locate the web service you want to deploy.
  2. Right-click the web service and select Deploy.
    Note:  If you didn't specify server settings or forgot to save the web service, you will be prompted for one or more of these actions before you can deploy:

    • Add a server location

    • Save the modified resources

    See the information about specifying server settings in Configuring M3 Web Services Designer.

  3. From the Select server window, select the server to deploy to.

    See information about adding server locations in Configuring M3 Web Services Designer.

  4. From the drop-down list, select a service context. The drop-down lists the options are compatible with the methods defined on the web service.
  5. Specify the appropriate user name and password for the back-end system
  6. Click Finish.

    If there is already a web service with the same name on the selected server, a warning is displayed.

    • To stop deploying a particular web service, click No.

    • To cancel the deployment, click Cancel.

    • To replace the existing web service or web services, click Yes or Yes to All.

    The web service is deployed to the M3 Web Services Server and a message is displayed stating that the web service has been deployed.

    After the web service has been deployed, you should test it. See Testing a Web Service
