Configure Wildfly as a Web Application Server

Updated: Nov 27, 2023

Teamcenter and Active Workspace require a Web Application Server for communication from the client to the Server Manager. Wildfly is one option of many (Tomcat, Weblogic, JBoss, etc.) that can be used to perform this function.

In the example below, we demonstrate how to configure Wildfly (JBoss) to connect to the Teamcenter and Active Workspace environment to enable communication pass through.

The configuration of the tc.war is a prerequisite for this process. This process provides an interaction with the Web Application Manager (WAM) to build the tc.war file. In addition, if not done already, if you are running Active Workspace 4.3+ you will need to ensure the Microservices are integrated into the Web Application Server.

For information regarding compatible versions of Wildfly and other supported Web Application Servers, see the Teamcenter Certifications and Information section of the Hardware and Software Certifications page on the Siemens Solution Center.

The image shows the various versions of the available Teamcenter Certifications documents on the Siemens Support Center webpage.
