WebObjects 5.2: How to Access the WOStats Page

For each instance of your application, there is a statistics (WOStats) page that displays information such as the application's running time and memory usage. Before accessing the WOStats page, though, you have to set a password.

There are three ways to set the password:

1. Use the command line.
Set the password by using the command line argument:

-WOStatisticsPassword password

2. Use Project Builder.
Add the WOStatisticsPassword to the list of Launch Arguments before opening and running your application.

3. Use JavaMonitor.
The password can be set from the JavaMonitor tool.

1. Click the Applications tab.

2. Click Config.
The instance Settings page appears.

3. Add -WOStatisticsPassword password to Additional Arguments.

Before viewing the instance statistics (WOStats) page, you have to type the password. However, the user name can be left alone.

After setting a password, you can access the instance statistics (WOStats) page of an instance through JavaMonitor, or directly through a Web browser.

Using JavaMonitor to View WOStats

1. Open the Application detail page.

2. Click WOStats for the instance statistics you want to view.

Using a Web Browser to View WOStats

1. Open a Web browser.

2. Enter the WOStats address:

Note: if there are multiple instances, you must also specify the instance number.
