Changing the default port#

By default, the 8443 port is assigned for the web services at the time of configuration of the PEM server. You can change the port after configuration by changing a few parameters in the Apache configuration files. The Apache configuration files names and locations are platform specific.

For RHEL#

  1. Edit the file /etc/httpd/conf.d/edb-ssl-pem.conf , replacing 8443 with your port number in the following parameters:

Listen 8443
<VirtualHost _default_:8443>
ServerName localhost:8443
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}:8443%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

  1. If semanage isn’t installed, install it:

sudo yum -y install policycoreutils-python

  1. Check whether your port is listed:

semanage port -l | grep http

  1. If your port doesn’t appear in the list, run this command:

sudo semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp <your_port_number>

  1. Restart the httpd service:

sudo systemctl restart httpd

You can now access the PEM web interface using your port. For more details, see Accessing the web interface .

For Debian and Ubuntu#

  1. Edit the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/edb-ssl-pem.conf , replacing 8443 with your port number in the following parameters:

Listen 8443
<VirtualHost _default_:8443>
ServerName HTTPD-EDBPEM-SERVER-v8:8443

  1. Restart the httpd service:

sudo systemctl restart apache2

You can now access the PEM web interface using your port. For more details, see Accessing the web interface .
