[error] mod_app_server_http: as_init: Initializing the WebSphere Plugin

[alvin yeung]

"[error] mod_app_server_http: as_init: Initializing the WebSphere Plugin" is showing up in my error.log. However, the IBM HTTP Server appear to operate properly.
I am using IBM HTTP Server 1.3.19 and WAS 4.03.
The HTTP server is on Windows NT SP6 and the WAS is on W2K SP2.
My Conf file contains:
LoadModule ibm_app_server_http_module C:\WebSphere\AppServer\bin\mod_ibm_app_server_http.dll
WebSpherePluginConfig C:\WebSphere\AppServer\config\plugin-cfg.xml
I have double and trouble check my conf file, it never ask for mod_app_server_http.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

I am getting the same error. I have deployed my application in WebSphere. The jsp page loads. However, the HTTP Server doesn't seem to be able to find the static components, like images, js files.
In the error.log file, it shows:
[Wed Mar 26 13:52:28 2003] [error] mod_app_server_http: as_init: Initializing the WebSphere Plugin
[Wed Mar 26 13:52:28 2003] [notice] Instance name is Apache 2144
[Wed Mar 26 13:53:18 2003] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: c:/ibm http server/htdocs/main.css
As you can see, the Http server looks for the static files under c:/ibm http server/htdocs, which is the default document root. I would think that has something to do with the failure to load the http server plugin for websphere.
I also have another machine with the same kind of setup and the app works properly. I even compared the httpd.conf files and they are exactly the same.
I have searched all over the web. Couldn't seem to find any useful information.
Very frustrated. Please help!
