Deploy the COMMWS Service Interface

Walks you through the process of starting the CICSCA enterprise server region, and deploying the COMMWS service interface to as a Web service.

The deployment process generates and compiles a COBOL program that is installed in the associated enterprise server region.

Start the CICSCA enterprise server region

On the Server Explorer in Visual Studio, expand Micro Focus Servers > localhost to show a list of available enterprise servers.
Right-click CICSCA, and then select Start from the context menu.

Deploy the COMMWS service interface to CICSCA

On the Solution Explorer, right-click the COMMWS service interface, and then select Deploy from the context menu.
The Output window shows the progression of the deployment process. If deployment is successful, you should see a message indicating success.

Note: If deployment were to fail, a message containing a URL to the deployment log file appears in the output window. You can type the address into a browser and view the log file from there.
