Do I need to define a WEBPORT when using SSL communication ?

Question & Answer


Question

I have defined SSL communication in the archive definition. In addition I have defined an an SSL_WEPORT. Do I still need to define the WEBPORT ?

Answer

When you do not define the WEBPORT the archpro will use a default WEBPORT. This will wok without problems when you have just one archpro instance started.

When you have a several instances of the archpro you can just start one instance at the same time.

The second instance you want to start will also try to use the WEPORT that is already occupied by the first archpro instance. As a result the second instance of archpro will fail to start.

For example:

archint.ini of instance_1


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#
# TCP/IP port numbers used by CommonStore.
# ARCHWIN_PORT is used by archstop, archbc and the Windows DLL.
# WEBPORT is used by the web dispatcher for the internet access.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#
ARCHPRO_PORT 5800
WEBPORT 5850
SSL_WEBPORT 5890

archint.ini of instance_2


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#
# TCP/IP port numbers used by CommonStore.
# ARCHPRO_PORT is used by archstop, archbc and the Windows DLL.
# WEBPORT is used by the web dispatcher for the internet access.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------#
ARCHPRO_PORT 5600
WEBPORT 5650
SSL_WEBPORT 5690
