Configure MashZone NextGen Digital Event Service (DES)

You can configure the URL that subscribes to an external Universal Messaging (UM) instance in MashZone NextGen using the Command Central.

The configuration type Messaging Services contains configuration options for Universal Messaging. It is pre-configured to use a Universal-Messaging Server running on local host (URL: nsp://localhost:9000). You must reconfigure the URL if you call a UM instance that is either remote (not localhost) or if the instance is running on another port than the UM default (9000).

Procedure

  1. Open a MashZone NextGen instance in Command Central.
  2. Open the MashZone NextGen - DES component, a subcomponent of the MashZone NextGen component.
  3. Open the Configuration tab.
  4. Select Messaging Services in the drop-down menu.
  5. Click UniversalMessaging in the Service Name column to open the settings.
  6. Click Edit on the upper right-hand side to edit the settings.
  7. Make your settings. For details on the UM settings see Create DES Event Source.
  8. Save your settings.
  9. Restart the MashZone NextGen server.

Your settings are applied.

If you do not use the Command Central, you can edit the UM URL in a corresponding configuration file stored the MashZone NextGen installation. Edit the file in a text editor, and replace the value of the messaging provider URL field in the JSON content.

The configuration file is located in the following directory.

<MashZone NextGen installation>\apache-tomcat\conf\DigitalEventServices\services\UniversalMessaging\service-UniversalMessaging.json
