How to find out which port is used for web server module from Websphere's standard output log?

Question

Assuming no access to production environment and no access to admin console I must find out which port is used by Websphere to listen for new http requests for REST controllers. The only entry i found is something like below:

webcontainer  I com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.VirtualHostImpl addWebApplication SRVE0250I: Web Module WebSphere ASYNC Response Servlet Application has been bound to default_host[*:8012,*:80,*:8013,*:8014,*:8015,*:443,*:9080,*:9443,*:5060,*:5061,*:8097,*:8019,*:8085].

Is there any other information in the standard output log that definitely state which port is web server bound to? Or maybe all mentioned ports are used?

Websphere version 8.5.5

Answer 1

Those are virtual host/port combinations, the listening ports on any particular server will be a subset.

Looking for the message "TCPC0001I:" will at least show you actual listening ports. If you find an intersection with the message in your question, you have likely found the right host/port to connect to at least from the local systems perspective.

Usually the port will be quite predictable -- 9080. But colocated appservers or lots of profiles being created will result in the default web container listening port being incremented.

Answer 2

Check the log for the following messages:

...TCPChannel    I   TCPC0001I: TCP Channel TCP_2 is listening on host *  (IPv6) port 9080.
...WSChannelFram A   CHFW0019I: The Transport Channel Service has started chain WCInboundDefault.
...TCPChannel    I   TCPC0001I: TCP Channel TCP_4 is listening on host *  (IPv6) port 9443.
...WSChannelFram A   CHFW0019I: The Transport Channel Service has started chain WCInboundDefaultSecure.

Where WCInboundDefault is http port of the server and WCInboundDefaultSecure is https port.
