To change the default RWP HTTP port
The port on which RWP listens for HTTP requests is defined by the Listen
parameter in httpd.conf. For example, Listen 80 tells RWP to listen on port 80
(the default for HTTP). You can change this to specify any available port number.
For example, Listen 8000 tells RWP to listen on port 8000.
If you want to change the default RWP port, or add additional ports, you must
modify the httpd.conf, plugin_cfg.xml and virutalhosts.xml files. If you are using
more than one profile, you must modify all of these files for every profile you use.
See !°T change the default RWP ports! for file locations. You do not need to
modify the serverindex.xml file, which defines the WAS Embedded Express ports,
unless you have another instance of WAS Embedded Express installed that is using
the same ports.
Note: If you change the RWP HTTP port number to anything other than 80, all
Web addresses that reference RWP must include the port number. For
example:
http://RWP_host.domain:8000/cqweb/login.
To change the default RWP ports
The WAS plugin ports (used for communication between IHS and WAS Embedded
Express) are comprised of IHS, SSL, and RWP servlet ports. None of these ports
are changeable during installation.
If these ports are used by another application on the RWP host, reconfigure that
application to use different ports. If you cannot, you must change the ports RWP
uses, after installation.
Configuring an alternate port:
To configure an alternate port number, do the following:
1. Add an additional Listen statement in http.conf. For example, to add port 8000,
add the line add Listen 8000.
2. Add the alternate port to the virtualhost group in plugin-cfg.xml.
3. Add the alternate port to the virtualhosts.xml file, in the HostAlias_x section.
