Change the Tomcat Port

You specify the Tomcat port is when you install CA Business Intelligence. If required, you can the Tomcat port for CA Business Intelligence after the installation is complete by modifying the server.xml file.

To change the Tomcat port

  1. On the CA Business Intelligence server, navigate to the installation folder. By default, this is:
    C:\Program Files\CA\SC\CommonReporting3
    
  2. In Common Reporting, go to the \Tomcat\conf folder.
  3. Make a copy of Server.xml for backup puposes.
  4. Edit Server.xml file.
    1. Find the following line:
      <!-- Define a non-SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
      
    2. In the Connector section, change the Tomcat port number as required. For example:
      <Connector 
         URIEncoding="UTF-8" 
         acceptCount="100" 
         connectionTimeout="20000" 
         debug="0" 
         disableUploadTimeout="true" 
         enableLookups="false" 
         maxSpareThreads="75" 
         maxThreads="150" 
         minSpareThreads="25" 
         port="8070" 
         redirectPort="8443"
      /> 
      
    3. Save the changes to Server.xml.
  5. Start the BusinessObjects Central Configuration Manager (CCM)
  6. Restart the Tomcat service.

    BusinessObjects Enterprise now uses the new port number.
