How does broker act as a web service provider? Does it have an inbuilt web server? |

I am trying to understand what happens behind the scenes. Does it have a installation like an apache webserver? |

mqjeff or rekarm could tell more.
My understanding is, the WMB runtime provides the port I/O that is specified by mqsisetproperties command.
There is no stand-alone web server. All HTTP I/O is provided natively by the WMB runtime.
This is one of those situations where its not needful to know how the gasoline makes it through the engine cylinders, as long as your car gets you from point A to point B. _________________ http://leanpub.com/IIB_Tips_and_Tricks

What happens behind the scenes is "undocumented".
There's an AXIS engine and a Tomcat engine.
They are not user modifiable. |

Yes.
The AXIS engine runs more or less inside the EG. The Tomcat engine runs inside the bipHTTPListener.
But you don't need to know this, and you don't want to try treating either things as what they are.
If you need or want to do "normal web server things", you need or want to put a normal webserver in front of Broker, and do your normal stuff there and then configure the normal webserver to talk to Broker's internal engines. There's a recent discussion I had with hopsala that might help. |
