5250 web-access not working

[ThierryC]

hi. i'm trying to activate the 5250 web access.. (ps. i'm on V7R1)

i've followed the instructions as listed in the manual.. but the final step is not working

running <code>CL command QIWA2/CFGACCWEB2 APPSVRTYPE(*INTAPPSVR) INSTANCE(VV5250)</code> to configure the server instance to work with IBM i Access for
Web

Anyone experience with this kind of error... ? i've googled but didn't find much info on this topic..

results in an error:
in the cmdstrace i only see the following:

cmd

configue IBM i Access for Web 

    An error occurred during processing of the command
    IBM i Access for Web is not configured for internal webapp server. Consult /QIBM/UserData/Access/Web2/logs/cmdstrace.log for more information

You might need to get support from IBM on this one. In order for Valence to use the 5250 interface it must be confirmed to be working independently of Valence first.

Hi, we had the exact same problem and resolved it by replacing the V7R1 version of 5770XH2 with the V7R2 version (which runs fine on OS V7R1). We then installed the latest service pack PTF SI56123

This will work with v7r1 if you use the 8.1 version of Internet Application Server instead of the version 8.5 when creating the VV5250 instance.
