Cause

When using the DominoGo Web Server for WAI, the BLQWAPIT and BLQWCTRM directives must be coded as ServerTerm.
As of z/OS V2.2, the DominoGo Web server is replaced by the Apache Web server.

Resolving The Problem

To resolve this issue for WAI running on z/OS V2.1 and older - Browse the httpd.conf file and verify that BLQWAPIT and BLQWCTRM are coded as ServerTerm. If they are coded as ServerInit, this causes the Infoman environment to be built and then shut down as the Web Server initializes, leaving nothing to connect to later.

In order to run WAI on z/OS V2.2, you must migrate from the Domino Go Web Server to the Apache Web Server. You need to install the following maintenance and follow the instructions:
- APAR OA45753 (WAI - contains DOC HOLD) for WAI to run on Apache
- APAR OA49272 (base Info) to get WAI working under Apache

Changing both directives to ServerTerm resolved this issue.
