As a result, small and midsized shops can look forward to the new "Express" line of WebSphere products. They are designed to be quickly and easily installed, and they provide an immediate return on investment. Web development expert Bob Cancilla has been working with IBM on these products, providing input and feedback. And he says the wizards and aids included in the Express products enable just about anyone to develop business applications. >> CLICK here to view the complete tip: http://www.search400.com/tip/1,289483,sid3_gci868180,00.html =============================================================== Answers to Other Technical Questions =============================================================== iSeries WebSphere strategy update: Improvements on the way Site expert Jim Mason reviews IBM's new WebSphere strategy for version 5, which fixes many of the problems the version 4 strategy created. WebSphere is becoming more widely used in iSeries shops, and this upgrade should make that happen faster, especially for midsize companies. http://search400.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid3_gci840341,00.html WebSphere Express to replace Tomcat bundled with HTTP Server With the addition of WebSphere Express, iSeries users will have a robust and sophisticated environment to migrate existing applications to Java and develop new applications. But more important is the possibility of IBM bundling it with OS/400, which could lead to simplifying the operating system, says Bob Cancilla. http://search400.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid3_gci837205,00.html What's up with the 403 error? One user writes, "I'm working with WebFacing and the WAS server is configured. I have no problem getting other apps to work -- even cgi-bin. But no matter what I do, I'm still getting the 403 error when I try to execute the option from index HTML." Web development expert Jim Mason explains that the 403 error occurs for several reasons. http://search400.techtarget.com/ateQuestionNResponse/0,289625,sid3_cid499923_tax285218,00.html Getting started with WebSphere You have an HTTP server, but not WebSphere.
