WebSphere Commerce Server 6.0 IBM Gift Center For Consumer Direct Store

IBM Gift Center for WebSphere Commerce, an optional feature, can be installed only on WebSphere Commerce Enterprise or WebSphere Commerce Professional, not WebSphere Commerce Express.and for this we need to publish the basic sar files like ConsumerDirect starter store.
http://hostname/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ConsumerDirect/index.jsp


Download and save the GiftCenterConsumerDirect.sar file to the sar directory but before that GiftCenter feature must be enable and it can be done by running config_ant.bat as shown below.

config_ant.bat -buildfile C:\IBM\WebSphere\CommerceServer60\components\GiftCenter\xml\enableGiftCenterForServer.xml -DinstanceName=wcs -DfeatureName=GiftCenter -DdbUserPassword=Password


Once this is Done successfully then Download GiftCenterConsumerDirect.sar.zip from the IBM WebSite and Rename it to GiftCenterConsumerDirect.sar and place this under C:\IBM\WebSphere\CommerceServer60\instances\wcs\sar
Now publish the above sar as shown below.
Before Publishing Read the Above instruction carefully and then go ahead.
