CE 6.3 change default port

[silverspr]

Hello and thank you for your assistance. I have searched all the available forums and wiki but have not had success changing the default port. I have modified the server.xml file found here: C:\openkm-6.3.0-community\tomcat\conf from 8080 to 8050

Code: Select all

<Connector port="8050" address="0.0.0.0" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

Restart server
I login successfully using http://localhost:850/openkm but the application never loads. I just get a blank internet explorer...I have also enabled port 8050 in the firewall.

Please advise on what I'm doing wrong. thanks

Two mistakes, first you wrote wrong port and secondly the context is case sensitive. The correct url should be http://localhost:8050/OpenKM ( with OKM uppercase ).

HI and thank you, yes the mistakes you pointed out were both typo's on my part.

I have successfully installed OpenKm on two different machines and also was able to change the port in both instances. One is a windows 7 and the other is a windows 8.1 machine. So there must be something wrong with this windows install on this machine which is windows 8.1. The current install is slowly spiraling out of control, now I'm receiving *.gwt.xml errors when logging in. Compatibility mode in IE 11 fixes the errors but the application is not displayed correctly. Very frustrating. Looks like I'm in for a re-install of windows and then attempt to change to the MySQL database. Fun times ahead!!

thanks for your help

We strongly suggest do not use IE family (a lot of bugs, less performance and not good standard). For good end user feeling we suggest Firefox or Chrome, your users will appreciate it.
