Configure a User-Defined HTTP Connector

Modifying the predefined HTTP connector settings in the com.softwareag.catalina.connector.http.pid-port_number.properties file. The file is available in the Software AG_directory \profiles\CTP\configuration\ com.softwareag.platform.config.propsloader directory.

Creating another properties file in the same location. The new configuration file must follow the naming convention of the predefined file by keeping the com.softwareag.catalina.connector.https.pid- prefix. The created file must have configured unique port and alias properties. The aliases of defaultHttp and defaultHttps are reserved for the predefined HTTP and HTTPS connectors and must not be used.

Using the Software AG Command Central user interface. For more information, see the Software AG Command Central Help.

Note:

Make sure that one of your HTTP connectors has the alias property set to defaultHttp. This value exists by default in the predefined HTTP connector definition. The defaultHttp value is used by the Common Platform to distinguish default connectors from other existing connectors. If this value is not present in at least one HTTP connector definition, this results in an invalid or corrupted Software AG Runtime configuration the next time you install a product in the profile.

1. Browse to the Software AG_directory \profiles\CTP\configuration\ com.softwareag.platform.config.propsloader directory.

The existing com.softwareag.catalina.connector.http.pid-port_number.properties file to modify the predefined HTTP connector.

Note:

When using the existing HTTP connector, make sure you rename the properties file by modifying the port_number in the filename.

Property	Description
port	Used to set the TCP port number on which the connector will create a server socket and await incoming connections.
alias	Used by Software AG Platform Manager to identify each connector. The default HTTP connector must have this property set to defaultHttp and this value must be unique and used for only one connector.
enabled	Used to specify whether the connector configuration is enabled. The default value is false and must be set to true to enable the connector.

4. Optionally, modify the other properties in the file. For more information about the available connector properties, see the Apache Tomcat documentation.
