Displaying the package attribute file

The package attribute file (GIMPAF.XML) can be rendered on an internet browser that supports XML and XSL (for example, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5). The package directory containing the package attribute file must be accessible to the browser through your z/OS® web server. The accessibility of the package directory is determined by your specific web server configuration.

For example, suppose /u/userid/public/ is defined by your z/OS web server to be your publicly accessible directory. Further suppose, to view the contents of this directory, you must specify an URL of the form http://host name/~userid. Then, in order to view the package attribute file, your package directory must be contained within the /u/userid/public/ directory, or a symbolic link that points to the package directory must be in the /u/userid/public/ directory in a UNIX file system. Furthermore, your z/OS web server must be configured to recognize .XML and .XSL as text MIME types and, if appropriate, convert EBCDIC text to ASCII text.

The package attribute file can then be viewed on an internet browser by entering an URL similar to the following:
http://host name/~userid/GIMPAF.XML
