Enable the MID Web Server [com.snc.sa.mid.webserver] plugin. ==> I dont see it on my PDI

I am trying to test Event Push through the JSON API through a MID Server on my Personal Developer Instance. This is what is specified in the documentation (Configure the MID Web Server extension (servicenow.com)

  • Enable the MID Web Server [com.snc.sa.mid.webserver] plugin.

However, i cannot seem to find this plugin to activate. In addition, even though i try to bring up the MID Server on port 6060, i dont find any listener on that port. Any thoughts?

From doc "List of Plugins" , you can find there are 2 plugins depends on the [com.snc.sa.mid.webserver] :

  •      Agent Client Collector Framework [sn_agent]
  •      Operational Intelligence [com.snc.sa.metric]

Installation of any these 2 plugins will install the [com.snc.sa.mid.webserver] plugins automatically.

After the 1st plugin is installed,  you can find the "MID Web Server" under the "Extension" of "MID Server", which mean the plugin has enabled.

 Thanks for the quick response.  Though i dont see either of those plugins on my PDI plugin, i do see this and configured the same. However, when i look at my server on which i have the MID running, i do not see it listening to the port 6060. When i start/restart i do not see any entries in my MID Server agent log as well.

Have you tried enabling Discovery plugin through your profile at developer.servicenow.com?

i did that as well but cannot see the port listener on the specific port. I am assuming the Web Server is started on the same server which runs the MID server (http://{MID_SERVER_IP}:{MID_Web_Server_port}/api/mid/em/jsonv2). i tried a netstat -a and searched for the port 6060 and i dont see a listener on it. When i "start" the Web Server extension, is that information sent to the MID Server, which then instantiates a Web Server?
