Create and Start the Domain

To build and deploy your Project, you must first create a domain. A domain is an 
instance of a Logical Host. After the domain is created, the Project is built and then 
deployed.

Note: 

You are only required to create a domain once when you install the Java CAPS.

Steps required to create and start the domain:

1

Navigate to your 

<JavaCAPS51>\logicalhost

 directory (where <JavaCAPS51> is 

the location of your Java Composite Application Suite installation.

2

Double-click the 

domainmgr.bat

 file. The 

Domain Manager

 appears.

3

If you have already created a domain, select your domain in the Domain Manager 
and click the 

Start an Existing Domain

 button. Once your domain is started, a 

green check mark indicates that the domain is running.

4

If there are no existing domains, a dialog box indicates that you can create a domain 
now. Click 

Yes

. The 

Create Domain

 dialog box appears.
