Run RTC/RQM on Port 80
Hi,
Can anyone please assist in making RQM use port 80 using Websphere 7?
I have tried the various suggestions in this forum by changing the port numbers in wc_defaulthost and wc_defaulthost_secure with no luck.
Is there any additional files related to this change?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Naweed

Hi Naweed
The ports are defaults for the protocol used:
HTTPS URLs use port 443 by default, whereas HTTP URLs use port 80 by default.
So if your protocol is https and you are not using any port in the URL, it defaults to 443.
Are you accessing RQM using HTTP or HTTPS?
Adding from my comment below:
----------------------------------------
If you want to access CLM applications via HTTP, you have to modify the web.xml of each application "Change all occurrences of CONFIDENTIAL to NONE and save the file"
Refer to the following Help, scroll down to "Modifying the WebSphere Application Server settings"

The first thing I would do from a WAS perspective is to:
1. Change the ports as was noted
2. make sure the default application is installed
2.a Verify you can get the default application /snoop to work with the modified ports. This is to ensure the WAS server is configured correctly
3. Once WAS configuration is confirmed then run through the setup wizard for RTC/RQM.

Hi Naweed,
you could:
- refer to http://sleroyblog.wordpress.com/2012/03/30/tip-for-jazz-administration-hide-port-numbers-from-the-public-server-uri/ for some guided step (for WebSphere 6.x - hopefully straightforward to adapt in WebSphere 7.0)
- make sure that port 80 and 443 are available on the server machine.
Hopes this helps.

Stéphane
