Specification for the Web server

Hi All,
We have BW3.5.
Presently web server is running in the production box itself.
We are planning for a separate box for the Web server.
Please give me the tips for the hardware config for the Webserver.
Thanks
Billy

Hi,
1) Currently there is no WSRP or JSR support
but this will be soon "standard" for all portals!
2) Device detection is available. Mobile Access pack will
be available soon. (It is available now for portal 3.0)
Cheers,
Alex :-)

  • Port forwarding for the Web server for outside Internet (not working , help!!!!!!)

    Hello 
    I am trying to learn something new here. We have web server inside our organization its IP address is 172.16.0.35. We want outside Internet users to access web server, How is it possible? Please have a look at the running configuration. Web server is working inside the organization but not at outside. Our Static Public IP is 197.255.232.15 it is assigned to Inetrface Gigabit ATM0.1  and ISP default GW is 197.255.232.1. Let me know whats next? How do I make web server inside the organization available for outside Internet users. Thank you.

  • Enabling the web server in an executable for LV 8.6

    I just upgraded form LV 7.1 to LV 8.6. In 7.1 I built a boat load of executables that had web server capabilities. That is the customer could view and operate the VI from any computer via Internet Explorer. It was very simple to do.
    In 8.6 the web publishing tool is the same as is the enable web server function under tools>Options.  In 7.1 app builder, I would include the HTML files in a www directory under the target's root then I would simply open the tools>options menu and enable the server on the executable. It's not there anymore.
    For the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this in 8.6. I've spoken to (2) people at NI Support and it didn't help. They were probably in high school when 7.1 came out.
    I've figured out how to use project explorer to build both an application and installer build. I put the HTML files into a www folder under windowsvolume folder which is supposed to be the root. The executable works fine except for the web server.
    It must be something simple. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

    It is a little more complicated than it was in 8.5. We are working to make it as simple as possible.
    I am always interested to hear what problems you have so we can improve the feature.

  • Reboot just the web server for SRW224G4 switch

    Hello all,
    I just bought Linksys SRW224G4 switch for office usage.
    Upon programming the switch through the web interface using IE7 suddently the web interface froze.
    So I just closed IE and try to get back to the web interface but with no luck. Its like the pages no longer there.
    After an extensive search in this forum, the only remedy at this time is to hard reboot the switch and the web interface is working again.
    My question is: is there a way to just SSH/Telnet/Console into the switch and restart just the web server instead of rebooting the entire switch ?
    If there is no way at present, maybe this can be made available for the next firmware release ?
    Thanks,
    Ben
    SRW224G4

    Hardware Version: 00.03.00

    Hi.  I know that restarting just the web user interface alone is not an option for the switch.  However, its not normal for the web user interface to freeze up.  Maybe you should try using IE6.

  • What's the "web server" in WAS... ?

    A non-SAP colleague of mine bugs me with questions like "what is the web server-part of WAS? It's Apache, right?"
    Me being relatively ignorant about these specific down-to-earth technical sides to the WAS, means I have to ask: What IS the "web server" part of WAS...? Is it a brand new built-from-scratch web server, or did SAP bundle a 3rd-party product like Apache into the "basis" system?
    Trond

    Hi Trond,
    good question. The SAP Application Server evolved into the SAP Web Application Server back in 2000 with the addition of the Internet Communication Manager (ICM). The ICM support the HTTP protocol (a web sever) and was written complete by SAP. SAP then introduced the SAP J2EE Engine, this to contains support for HTTP.
    In a full blown Web AS (ABAP + J2EE), requests are sent to the ICM and then passed to either the ABAP stack (BSP apps) or the passed to the J2EE HTTP port if the request is for a J2EE web app.
    So in short, SAP wrote their own Web Server...thus you don't need to purchase 3rd part web servers.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,
    Jeff

  • Connection from the web server to the database which is situated in another machine.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I need to know, whether there shold be a physical connection between the web server and database machine? or can we connect to the database machine through the web, if the database machine has a domain name? if there is a physical connection, we can use the jdbc/odbc connection. but if we are connecting through the web, how can I estblish the connection using a JDBC/ ODBC connection?
    Regards,
    George

    As long as there's a network connection between the two machines, you should be able to make the connection. I'm not sure what the difference between a 'direct connection' and a 'connection through the web' is-- are you actually running a network cable from one machine to another?
    When you cannot make the connection, are you able to do a 'tnsping' on the target database?
    When you say 'connecting through the web', is it possible that you're going through a firewall? If so, the firewall may be blocking the ports you need to communicate on.

  • How can I make the web server work on port 80 and not 443. I can only access my website using https.

    On a Mac Mini server with OS X Lion 10.7.2, I am unalbe to get the web server working on port 80. It switches automatically to port 443 (https).
    This situation complicates the access to FileMaker Web publishing, as I don't want my clients having to use https.
    How can I change that? Does anyone know?
    Thanks for any reply

    in the server: I checked the SSL certificate. Tried several configuration.
    Well, that's a problem for a start.
    Your port 80 connection should NOT use SSL. Port 80 is the standard HTTP port, not HTTPS and most applications that connect to port 80 will not expect to use SSL
    If you want to run a site under both HTTP and HTTPS then you create two sites, one on port 80 without SSL and one on port 443 with SSL

  • Imp:How to find out whether client authentication Enabled on the Web Server

    Hi,
    I am trying to find out whether the Client Authentication Enabled on the Web Server or not.
    Reason for doing this, if we have two certificates in the key store which will authenticate the Web Server, JSSE Authentication will always take the first cert from the keystore. If the first Certificate is Expired, it will fail while doing the HandShake.
    So if I can find out whether Client Authentication is Enabled or not, then I can prompt a dialog for the user to select the Certificate for the Hand Shake.
    Thanks in advance for any Response,
    Krish.

    AUTH_TYPE will tell you only if it SSL or not. It won't say whether the Client Certificates Required for SSL Connection.
    Also, AUTH_TYPE is not part of the Http Headers.
    If there is any other solution, greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Krish.

    Hi,
    I suppose you have set the SSL port to 443 however, it looks like port 443 is
    already in use by another process.

  • Save for the web colors

    I was having trouble with image colors when I used 'save for the web' and I found a couple of solutions in tech notes regarding embedded color profiles but there is some thing I just don't understand.
    It says:
    "To ensure that colors are consistent in Photoshop, ImageReady and the Save for the Web dialog box, use an embedded color profile for display in each, or preview the image in Photoshop using the monitors RGB color space. Note that if you use an embedded color profile for display, colors may appear incorrectly if you view the image in an application that cannot read color profiles."
    Can somebody give me the lowdown on what exactly a color profile is (what it does, when you should embed one etc) and some examples of the kind of application that can't read them i.e. if I send the photos via e-mail can the profile be read? put them on a web page?
    Thanks for any illumination!
    j.

    A profile is a file that decribes to applications that can read them the color and tonal characteristics of a particular device. A profile can also be a mathematical description of a particular RGB or CMYK Lab color space. You've probably seen RGB working spaces in Photoshop referred to in terms like sRGB, Adobe RGB, ProPhoto RGB, etc. Any application that is color managed and can read and use profiles needs a minimum of two profile to to the job - a source profile and a destination profile. When you're looking at images on your computer monitor, the source is your RGB working space and the destination is your specific monitor. Photoshop uses both the working space profile and the monitor profile to display your image correctly. Most other applications in Windows do not read profile and have to assume either "Monitor RGB" or sRGB as the source for the file. If your file is not one of those, then false asumptioins are made and the image does not appear correctly. Some web browsers like Firefox 3 and Apple Safari do read profiles but not necessarily by default. You have to turn the option in FF. Some email readers are color managed, others not.
    Profiles can be and usually are embedded in the document when you save it. Unless you have a good reason for not embedding a profile, it's almost always a good idea. It adds 4K to the file size and will let someone down the line who is using a color managed application see the file how you intended it. You have no control over the others, but that's life online. Currentlyl the best strategy is convert files destined for the web to sRGB and embed the profiles. That might change in the future, but it's a good place to be right now.
