Port Number visible in Siebel URL

Hi all,
We have just finished deploying our Siebel Application in Production. It is a standard multi-server environment with Clustering and Load Balancing.
However, we see that Siebel is automatically appending the Network Port Number (:8000), when accessing from an external Web Server.
The client has requested this port number (:8000) be removed from the URL. We would really appreciate some help on the issue.

You may have 2 constraints that are difficult to mix:
1/ Any Browser consider an URL starting with http://server/path is to be send to port 80 of the "server"
That is why all Web server (IIS, Apache, etc) use to be reached using port 80 by default.
2/ Local security constraints
One of those security guy may have told you that they can not accept to open the firewall or reverse-proxy to the port 80 of your virtual IP representing the web server farm
Conclusion: Please have a discussion with your local security team and see if this has already been discussed.

  • Port Number in HTTP Sender URL

    Hello,
    I am trying for a HTTP -> SAP PI 7.11 -> File scenario and now want to develop the URL which will be used by the HTTP client.
    I have the format of the URL to be used
    I want to ask which is the port that should be used in the URL:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/
    In some threads I saw that it should be 80<System_Number> (so if system number = 01 then port number becomes 8001); ABAP port, I assume.
    Is this still valid SAP PI 7.11?
    If yes can I check where this port is maintained (on SAP PI server)?
    ~Thanks.

    Hi,
    7.1 onwards both ports are same
    go to SMICM ->goto(services) -> http port will be listed there
    By default there is an http serive /sap/xi/adapter_plain provided for the HTTP ..so no need to create any addition objects for using http..

  • Port number pops up in URL...

              Hi,
              I have this issue.
              We have weblogic Server(5.0) running on HP-Unix. We have several
              JSP Pages and a controller servlet.
              The testing goes like this:
              We have a form in my.jsp and it gets submitted to controller servlet.
              The servlet processes the request and redirects the response to
              myResult.jsp.
              We give the URL like : http://rv1/my.jsp
              With IE(5.0) everything works fine.
              We get the redirected JSP Page and URL in IE looks like : http:/rv1/myResult.jsp
              When I use Netscape(4.85) my response url has port nmumber appended
              to the m/c name.
              For ex; if I give http://rv1/my.jsp I get the response page as
              http://rv1:80/myResult.jsp
              When I tested with the local installation of WebLogic on my Windows
              NT, both IE and Netscape work fine.
              So we concluded that it is neither browser issue nor our application
              issue.
              Is it a WebLogic issue specific to HP-Unix?
              Please Help
              Thanks,
              Kanchan
              

              For the JSPs and Servlets running on the same application server
              and in the same application context, we usually use forward or
              include of requestdispatcher or <jsp:forward> and <jsp:include>.
              On the other hand, you can write some programs to simulate Netscape
              to access your application and check if port 80 is in the header
              field Loaction. If so, port number is appended by Weblogic. Else,
              port number is appended by your browser.

  • Sharepoint 2010 appended port number in the public URL when redirect

    I'm new in sharepoint so please bear with me.
    We have a sharepoint deployment that has 4 WFEs, each WFE has 4 sites, all on a different port number.  For example;
    Site 1: http://site1.server1:11111
    Site 2: http://site1.server1:22222
    Site 3: http://site1.server1:33333
    Site 4: http://site1.server1:44444
    We have a load balancer that use a public URL to all these sites.  For example;
    Site 1: http://site1
    Site 2: http://site2
    Site 3: http://site3
    Site 4: http://site4
    Here is the problem.  Some of the link in the sharepoint site, when click, the URL is appended with the port number at the end of the public URL.  For example, http://site1:11111.
    I tried playing around with the AAM but it doesnt yield anything.  Any advise from the expert would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Look at your default AAM.  This controls how the URL is appended or not.  You also need to look at the site bindings in IIS and make sure you have them for each site, for port 80.  And you need an alternate access mapping that routes site.server:Port
    to site if your desired outcome is to have any load balanced call route back to the default alternate access mapping of http://site1
    you would have a binding on http://site1 on port 80 in iis, and a host header associated with this site.
    Also, if you are using path based sites, this will only work for one site.  You can tell if you're using path based site collections if you see a / in front of their names inside view all site collections.
    Microsoft recommends using Host named site collections, check out this technet

  • How to hide the PORT NUMBER from the URL

    Hi,
    We have Application on Node 1 and Database on Node 2
    Apps Version: 11.5.10.2
    DB: 9.2.0.6
    We recently added a new node to act as web server for iSupport.
    Now we are able to access the url using public Ip-address which looks like
    http://<Internet Ip-Address>:<PORT NUMBER>
    Eg: http://******.com:8000
    But we dont want the *'PORT NUMBER(8000)'* to be displayed.
    How to hide the port number ?..
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi Hsawwan,
    Can you plz explain me the steps how to hide the port number from the url as our network administrator is not aware of this.

  • Hiding the port number from the url

    Hi All,
    In our applications built using Weblogic Portal 10.3, the url to access the application doesnt have the port number. It is simply like http://<server-name>/<context> no port at all. Is this some configuration that is available inside weblogic adminstration console? The domain has both the default port and the SSL port enabled which are running in 7001 and 7002 respectively. Please let me know as how to do this configuration as I am growing haywired on this it has been about a week and have not found an answer yet. Please throw some light on this and let me know if you need further details
    Thanks
    Ashwin

    you should install apache server to handle all the requests on port 80 and froward it to weblogic server using wlp plugin
    please check this link
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/plugins/apache.html
    any request http://yourapp/context will be mapped to http://youapp:7001/context

  • Port number is changing in the URL!

    Hello,
    When i try to execute a webtemplate in the browser, the default port number(ICM profile configured in RZ10 icm/server_port_0 PROT=HTTP,PORT=8080,TIMEOUT=1800)is modifying in the URL to 8100, and unable to display the page. Again when i modify the port number to default portnumber manuall and the page/report is displayed.
    Could you explain why the default port no is modifying in the URL? How can i solve this porblem?
    Should i need to do some more configurations?
    Thanks...

    Hi Amie,
    It is difficult for me to understand the problem. Could you please provide more information about the version of the J2EE Engine you use, the environment - cluster, nodes. If it is possible to copy/paste the HTTP request and Http response. What is this default port number that you mention?
    Could you be so kind please to explain the problem once again in more details ?

  • How do setup the URL alias  without the port number 7001?

    Hi all,
    I am using Weblogic 8.1 and have the following url http://solutions.company.com:7001/application.
    I would like to simplify this URL by removing the port number to http://solutions.company.com/application.
    (ie., configuring the system such that it automatically looks at 7001 without

  • Awesome Bar: auto-complete suggestion does not remember port number from URL

    I visit URLs with non-standard ports all the time such as http://localhost:8080.
    When I start typing "localhost" into the address bar, the Awesome Bar suggests only "http://localhost" - i.e. WITHOUT the port 8080 - instead of suggesting the full URL including the port.
    I never visit "localhost" without port 8080 so that entry should not even be in my history at all.
    The Awesome Bar should always remember port numbers when making suggestions.

    Unfortunately that doesn't work. Even with the URL bookmarked, typing "local" to begin the autocomplete still results in the URL being auto-completed without a port number.
    Typing the name of the bookmark itself results in no auto-complete at all, meaning you still have to press the down arrow before hitting "return" to get to the correct URL. So you're back at square one.
    I filed a bug here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=853898
    Which turned out to be a duplicate of: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764062

  • Workspace URL without port number?

    Hello,
    Is there a way to config the Workspace URL to not use the port number for LCES with Webpshere 6.1 environment (e.g." http://localhost:/workspace/" instead of "http://localhost:9080/workspace/") due to the firewall configuration?
    Thanks,
    Han Dao

    1) Change the WC_defaulthost port of the appserver instance from 9080 to 80
    2) Make sure "80" is listed as a "Host alias" for the "default_host" virtual host or another virtual host you have created exclusively for LiveCycle
    3) Re-start the appserver instance
    4) Check the SystemOut.log and verify that all LiveCycle web modules now bind to port 80, among others (like 5060, 5061 etc).
    5) Try http://localhost/workspace and it should work.

  • How can I  change the port number generated in the returned url?

    We have a hardware load balancer listening on port 80 and forwarding requests to weblogic 6.1 sp2 servers on port 8090. The web servers generate urls containing the port number (and ip address of the load balancer). The browser tries to acces the load balancer at port 8090 and fails. So, how can I tell weblogic not to put a port number in the url?
    TIA, Reinier

    Generated WSDL will use the URL of the incoming
    HTTP GET request (request to retrieve wsdl) to create:
    service->port->location->address
    attribute inside the WSDL.
    This attribute is used by the client to send the SOAP
    request.
    So the HTTP GET request to retrieve the WSDL
    should use the address of the load balancer (ie 80).
    Then the generated WSDL will also have a url with
    port 80.

    One way to check is using Transaction<b> SMICM</b>. You can also try SE37 > RSBB_URL_PREFIX_GET. When you execute this function module, the Export parameters returned are what appear in your URL.
    If there is a difference between what you see in SMICM and the Export Parameters, it means that somewhere the settings are wrong...your Basis team can help in that case.
    Hope this helps...

  • Disable Canonical URL or Remove Port Number

    Hi All,
                 We are using the publishing template of Sharepoint 2013 . This generates  the canonical url as shown
    <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.somesite:80/Pages/default.aspx" />
    I want to achieve removal of port number from the above link.
    If not posssible to either remove the entire link itself
    Thanks
    Thomson

    Hi Thomson,
    It is by design that the canonical URL will display port number for SharePoint pages.
    And if you have other sites which are using port number other than 80, then the port should be displayed in the URL for requests can be directed to the correct sites.
    So the port number should not be removed from the URL.
    If you do not want this canonical URL, then you may need to disable the Search Engine Optimization feature in the site collection.
    As this feature is enabled by SharePoint Publishing feature, then we need to disabled it using PowerShell command:
    Disable-SPFeature -identity 17415b1d-5339-42f9-a10b-3fef756b84d1 -URL

  • Remove port number of the URL

    Anyone know how I can remove the port of the URL, What do I need to configure to change the url and appears with another name?

    I have a very similar question as well. I am very new to web applications and web development in general, but we have some here that will come up by simply typing in the IP of the host or the word associated with that host in our local DNS environment. You are then directed to whatever site is on port 80 of that host.
    I would like to do the same with my app I have built in App Express - have users type in a "keyword" and they are immediately directed to my application home page. If my application URL requires a specified port 8080, this doesnt happen by simply pointing to the host. Is it as simple as changing the port number for the application?
