Changing the HTTP Port used by the Admin Tool for Station
Functions
When you change the station HTTP port, the Admin Tool will no longer be able to
connect to the station to perform station functions. Figure 6-5 provides an example
of the type of error you might encounter if you change the HTTP port in the station
but fail to make the appropriate change for the Admin Tool.
Figure 6-5 Admin Tool DBAdmin error after changing HTTP port in station properties.
In order to correct this, you must add a line in the station.properties file that
references the new port number. You can edit this file using the Admin Tool, as
follows:
Procedure 6-2 Changing the HTTP port used by the Admin Tool for station functions.
Step 1 If you have not already done so, open the Admin Tool and log into the host that
contains the station that you changed in the previous procedure.
Step 2 Right-click the station name (not the host name or address) and select Edit >
Properties (Figure 6-6).
The station.properties file opens for editing in a new window.
Figure 6-6 Opening the station.properties file in the Admin Tool.
Step 3 Add a line to the file that reads:
httpPort=<newport>
where <newport> is the same port that you used in Step 4 of the previous procedure.
Be sure to type in the line with the capitalization as shown. See Figure 6-7.
