Using HP Web Services for Output Server

SSL

Document chunking is transferring a large file in smaller chunks. The client and the server must agree upon the

chunk size of the document. For example, a document of 2 GB can be broken into chunks of 20 KB each. The

server assembles the chunks, creates the original file, and persists it into a unique (named as session ID) user

folder.

NOTE: If the client sends a bulky document, for example of 2 GB, with chunking disabled, the

JBoss server might generate an error. A java.lang.OutOfMemory error in the JBoss

server.log file indicates that a higher heap size is required.

SSL

To configure SSL, perform the following steps:

1. Create keystores, which will hold the certificates using the following link:

http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/SSLSetup

NOTE: You must have signed certificates to configure SSL, which must be deployed on JBoss

server.

When you have the certificate, you can make changes to the server.xml file located at:

DAZEL_HOME/share/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer

An example of snippet of server.xml file is as follows:

<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" SSLEnabled="true"

maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"

clientAuth="false" keyStoreFile="WEB-INF\wsg.keystore"

keyStorePass="welcome1" sslProtocol="TLS" />

NOTE: The value of the keystoreFile file is the path of the certificate and keystorePass

is the password while creating the certificate.

Restart the JBoss server.

2. Import the certificates on the Web service client from the JBoss server using the following utility:

NOTE: Using the utility, you can import the public key on to the Web service client.

/**This is a standard Sun utility.

The class is used to import the Public Key from the server which has the signed certificate installed on JBoss

server. This class will persist the information (public key) in a file system on the client.

By using the file system from the java client you can make a call using SSL.
