Steps to help resolve administrative console problems In Websphere Application Server

Is the administrative console installed properly?

check the the following directory:

install_root/profiles/profile_name/logs/webui_config.log

Make sure you have the following statement at the bottom of the file:

Application adminconsole installed successfully

Are you having problems bringing up the administrative console?

make sure the administrative console is installed and started. Check the following directory:

install_root/profiles/dmgrProfile/SystemOut.log

Make sure you see the following statement:

Application started: adminconsole

Are you having problems bringing up the administrative console on port 9060, or do you want to make sure the administrative console is defined and running on port 9060?

By default the HTTP Transport port for the administrative console is set to 9060. If for some reason you have modified the port during install or after the install, then to find the administrative console port search for "WC_adminhost" in the serverindex.xml file under the following directory:

install_root/profiles/dmgrProfile/config/cells/cell_name/nodes/dmgrNode/

Remember, the administrative console port should also be listed in the virtualhosts.xml file under the following directory:

install_root/profiles/dmgrProfile/config/cells/cell_name

If you have modified the serverindex.xml file manually, or from the administrative console, make sure you modify the virtulahosts.xml file also and recycle the server

After the administrative console came up successfully, are some of the links missing or some of the pages are blank? 

it is not possible to reinstall the administrative console for WebSphere Application Server V6.0 unlike the V5.0 or V5.1 administrative console. To resolve the problem, stop the server and then remove the content from the following directory:

install_root/profiles/profile_name/wstemp

Replace the following file with the working adminconsole.ear file from another system:

install_root/systemApps/adminconsole.ear

Make sure both the versions and other products on WebSphere Application Server are identical. Start the server again.
