Redirectling URLs/ Use different URL for working with Alfresco Community 5.0.c

[borisstankov]

Hello guys,

Would you please let me know how I can redirect and use simpler URLs in order to open Alfresco Community 5.0.c?

Example:

The default url to open the Alfresco Community is http://host.name.com:8080/share/page/ (LINK1)
I wish to change the URL to be just: http://host.name.com/ (LINK2)
In other words: I would like to have people using LINK2 in order to login and use it to work with Alfresco instead of LINK1.


I went over most of the docs in http://docs.alfresco.com/community/concepts/, however I was not able to find any related information.


Thanks in advance for the help!

I'd say the easier would be to put a proxy in front (apache, nginx, etc.)
Get that proxy to listen on port 80 and redirect the traffic correctly.
It will also help you if/when you plan to switch to https
