HTTP Server Input 1 plugin preferences
HTTP server input 1 plugin preferences control the server protocol aspects of the PReS
WorkflowHTTP Server Input tasks. This is where you enable and configure secure
communication for the HTTP Server.
Technical
By default, the request XMLalso contains a CDATAsection which contains the raw input
data, effectively doubling the size of the incoming file. Due to technical restrictions, the
incoming XMLfile cannot be more than 400MB, which because of CDATA is reduced to
around 200MB. To help in this situation, you may elect to omit CDATA from the
attachment in this dialog. Please note that this limitation also affects incoming binary files
(sent through file upload in a form), regardless of CDATA settings.
Preferences
l
Port: Select the TCP port to use. The default port is 8080, the official HTTP alternate port,
so as not to interfere with the standard HTTP port (80). To block any regular HTTPtraffic
(for example if only using HTTPSconnections) the port can be set to 0.
l
Time out: Set the timeout period in seconds. The default value is 120 seconds.
l
Enable server for SSLrequests:Check this option to enable secure data exchange
over the Web. This enables the boxes below and lets you specify your secure
communication settings.
