Configuring Sample Application for Communication with RiskMinder Server

The riskfort.risk-evaluation.properties file provides the parameters for the Java SDK and Sample Application to read RiskMinder Server information. Therefore, after deploying Sample Application, configure it to communicate with RiskMinder Server. This file is only available after you deploy the Sample Application WAR file, riskfort-3.1-sample-application.war.

To configure the riskfort.risk-evaluation.properties file:

1. Navigate to the riskfort.risk-evaluation.properties file on your application server.

   On Apache Tomcat, this file is available at:

   <App_Home/riskfort-3.1-sample-application>/WEB-INF/classes/properties/
   

   Here, <App_Home/riskfort-3.1-sample-application/> represents the directory path where RiskMinder application WAR files are deployed.

2. Open the riskfort.risk-evaluation.properties file in an editor window and set the value for the following parameters:
   • HOST.1
   • PORT.1

     A default value is specified for the remaining parameters in the file. You can change these values, if required. For more information about configuration parameters, see riskfort.risk-evaluation.properties.

3. (Optional: Perform this step only if you configured SSL-based communication in chapter, "Configuring SSL")

   Set the following parameters:

   • TRANSPORT_TYPE=SSL (By default, this parameter is set to TCP.)
   • CA_CERT_FILE=<absolute_path_of_Root_Certificate_in_PEM_FORMAT>

     For example, you can specify one of the following values:

     • CA_CERT_FILE=<install_location>/certs/<ca_cert>.pem
     • CA_CERT_FILE=<install_location>\\certs\\<ca_cert>.pem
4. Save the changes and close the file.
5. Restart the application server to reflect these changes.
