How to Define Alfresco Port Number

joel18 — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 03:03:47 GMT

Hello, everyone. Can somebody tell me how to change the port number of Alfresco. As the default port number of Alfresco is 8080, I hope to change 8080 to 8088. If I changed the port number, I'd input the url(http://localhost:8088/alfresco) and Alfresco page would be displayed. Would you like

It's a Tomcat setting in server.xml

Thanks,
Mike

However in server.xml, I have changed the port to 8088 such as follows:

<!– Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 –>
    <Connector port="8088" URIEncoding="UTF-8" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
               maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
               enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
               connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" />

However, when I start Alfresco. It doesn't work. I got this information:

Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080

What is the reason? I can't solve this problem.

sorry it sounds dumb, but did you changed the server.xml
of the right tomcat? or do yo start the right tomcat.

<Connector port="8088" URIEncoding="UTF-8" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"…
is the right way to make tomcat listen on 8088…

:?

Thank you very much.
But I changed the right tomcat and restart it.
But there is no any difference.

I have solved this problem. Because I haven't changed the Alfresco.bat. After I have relocated the Alfresco file and restarted it, everything is well. Now port number is 8088.
Thank you for your kindness.

Hello,

There are some other files in Alfresco that uses the url to the application (wsdl files and file-server.xml for instance).
Should these files be modified too, or Alfresco can dynamically change this address ?

it's not the task of alfresco, it's the job of tomcat
tomcat runs the application on localhost:8080/alfresco/
the other content is relative to this url

best regards
