Configuring HTTP/HTTPS Port Properties

HTTP/HTTPS ports are initially set during installation. You can change the port numbers and other port properties in SMP_HOME\Server\config_master\org.eclipse.gemini.web.tomcat\default-server.xml.

The property descriptions below are based on Apache Tomcat 7 documentation at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config.

Note: When changing a SAP Mobile Platform Server port number, temporarily stop the server. Restart the server after making the changes.
Warning!  Changing any Tomcat properties that are not described in the SAP Mobile Platform Server documentation might have unintended effects on your server.
Port Properties in default-server.xml
Property Description
port TCP port number on which this connector creates a server socket and awaits incoming connections
maxThreads Maximum number of request-processing threads to be created by this connector. The default value is 250.
connectionTimeout Length of time, in milliseconds, that this connector waits, after accepting a connection, for the request URI line to be presented. The default value is 20000 (20 seconds).
acceptCount Maximum queue length for incoming connection requests when all possible request-processing threads are in use. Any requests received when the queue is full are refused. The default value is 100.
redirectPort

If this connector supports non-SSL requests, and a request is received for which a matching security-constraint requires SSL transport, Catalina automatically redirects the request to this port number.

The default value is 8081. If you change the port number used for oneway SSL authentication, you must also change this port number.
