Event Management Configuration › Java GUI › Web Server Configuration

Web Server Configuration

The installation process creates a configuration file containing all the information required to run the Java GUI. However, there are many options that affect the behavior of the web server; we discuss only some of them here.

For more information about web servers, see the IBM manual IBM HTTP Server for your operating system release.

If a web server is already running, you can support multiple applications from the one server or change the port number for one of them.

To change the port number, edit the configuration file and modify the Port operand.

To merge CA Common Services into an existing web server, you must add the following to your configuration file:

ServerRoot   /cai/nsmem/browser   this should contain the install path for Event Management
HostName     yourhostname         this should be the host name of your computer
Port         80                   The port to connect to: Default 80.

# The default Framework configuration specifies no security inside the
# Web server since authentication is performed in our Java server once
# The user connects to the system. The NOSEC definition (below) allows
# Access to occur under the web server's security context (as opposed
# To under any specific individual's context).

You will find a complete list of the statements in file /cai/nsmem/browser/httpd.conf. You may copy and paste them into your existing web server configuration file.
