2. Extract the contents of the downloaded archive into a folder.
3. Open a command-line interface and go to that folder.
4. Execute the following command:

   bin\server create

5. Put the Oxygen XML Web Author .war file in: usr\servers\defaultServer\dropins.

       <featureManager>
           <feature>javaee-8.0</feature>

           <feature>servlet-3.1</feature>
           <feature>websocket-1.1</feature>
       </featureManager>
       <!-- To access this server from a remote client add a host attribute to 
            the following element, e.g. host="*" -->
       <httpEndpoint httpPort="9080" httpsPort="9443" id="defaultHttpEndpoint"/>
   
       <!-- Automatically expand WAR files and EAR files -->
       <applicationManager autoExpand="true"/>
       <classloading useJarUrls="true"/>
       <httpSession cookieName="WEBSPHERE_JESSIONID"/>
   
       <webContainer
          com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.initFilterBeforeInitServlet="true"

       <applicationMonitor updateTrigger="mbean"/>
   
       <keyStore id="defaultKeyStore" password="[keystore password]"/>
   
       <basicRegistry id="basic" realm="BasicRealm">
       </basicRegistry>
   </server>

7. Create a jvm.options file in [WEBSPHERE]\usr\servers\defaultServer\, with the following content:

   -Doxygen.data.dir=<path-to-wlp>\usr\servers\defaultServer\data

8. Run the following command to install all the required components

   bin\installUtility install defaultServer

9. The deployment will be made automatically by WebSphere (check [WEBSPHERE]\usr\servers\defaultServer\logs\console.log).
