Configuring Tomcat HTTPS connector

Complete the following steps to configure the web server's usage of the HTTPS port. As an example, 8443 is assumed as the designated HTTPS port value.

Note: The following steps ensure that an HTTPS Keystore is configured with only a self-signed certificate. When completed, you must replace this self-signed certificate with a CA-signed certificate.

See Installing or renewing a CA-signed HTTPS certificate.

  1. Start the LN UI Administration Webapp.
  2. Select Infor LN UI Administration > HTTPS Keystore.
  3. If required, click Edit to change the Subject Details fields. Specify the desired values for fields such as Organizational Unit and Organization, which will be used for the self-signed certificate.
  4. Click Save and Close to create the HTTPS keystore with a self-signed certificate.
  5. Select Infor LN UI Administration > Login Configuration. In the HTTPS Port field, specify the designated value, for example 8443. Save the changes. Do not restart the web server now.
  6. Select Infor LN UI Administration > HTTPS Configuration.
  7. Click HTTPS Connector - Generate/Update to update the Tomcat configuration with the selected HTTPS port value and the HTTPS keystore. Restart the web server now.
  8. To verify that HTTPS configuration was completed successfully, browse to a URL similar to https://server1.initrode.com:8443/webui/servlet/admin
  9. Use the padlock of the browser's address bar to inspect the certificate information and verify that a self-signed certificate is displayed.
