To deploy Webswing to WAS 9.0, follow these steps:

1. Unzip Webswing distribution to a temporary folder
2. In webswing.properties set property webswing.server.websocketUrl to ws://localhost:<port>, port should be the same as application server port
3. Go to IBM WAS Console http://localhost:9060/ibm/console
4. Navigate in the menu to Applications>New Application>New Enterprise Application
5. Click Choose File (select webswing-server.war from the temporary folder created before)
6. Next>Next>Next>Next>Next
7. Configure Webswing JVM Properties in location: Servers>Server Types>WebSphere application servers>server1>Server Infrastructure, Java and Process Management, Process Definition>Java Virtual Machine>Custom Properties similarly to following:

webswing.warLocation=webapps/webswing-server.war
webswing.configFile=webswing/webswing.config
webswing.tempDirBase=webswing/tmp
webswing.rootDir=webswing

Please note that the locations in demo webswing.config are pointing to relative paths, so in order to make the demo applications run in WAS you will need to change the paths accordingly.

In case of issues analyze the logfiles.
