OntoBroker usually runs as a standalone server, but additionally provides the features described above on an embedded HTTP server.

After installing the OntoBroker distribution, the only difference is the additional command line argument "-webservice". This tells OntoBroker to start its embedded HTTP server. The socket communication is still available in the same manner as in previous OntoBroker versions.

By default, the HTTP server uses the port <8267>, but you can specify it explicitly in the "OntoConfig.prp" with the property "WsHttpPort"

To access the WSDL, use the following URL:

http://<ontobrokerhost>:<wshttpport>/services/ontobroker?wsdl

If the OntoBroker server is running on your local machine and you are using the default port <8267>, the link is:

http://localhost:8267/services/ontobroker?wsdl

To open the HTTP console, use the following URL:

http://<ontobrokerhost>:<wshttpport>/
