Step 8: Web Server configuration

It is highly recommended to use HTTPS and a HTTPS certificate for ProcMan.

The default Web Server configuration created at the installation of ProcMan is for an encrypted HTTPS communication between the clients and the ProcMan server.

It is strongly recommended not to change this configuration to an unencrypted HTTP communication. However if there is some crucial reason for this it can be done in the Web Server configuration file <name>.conf by changing the port number and commenting out the options starting with SSL.

You need a .crt and a .key file which you can get from an official licensing site or from your companies certificate department.

1. Place the .crt and .key file in C:\HORIZONT\hwf\httpd\conf.d

2. Open the C:\HORIZONT\hwf\httpd\conf.d\<installationname>.conf file. In there, under the VirtualHost section, change the SSLCertificateFile path and the SSLCertficcateKeyFile path to the files added above.
