SSL port 443

Hi Profound-team,

is there any specific setup for running profoundjs on https port 443. I've tried to set up but it's not working.
I just want to be sure that's it's not a firewall issue on my side. port 80 is working and port 443 is normally allowed in firewall settings.

my PROFOUNDUI session is running on port 443. I've ended this subsystem and configured PROFOUNDJS for 443.
So both sessions do not disturb each other.
is there any setup which has to be done in config.js except the port setup ?

module.exports = {
"port": 443,
"staticFilesDirectory": "/www/profoundui/htdocs",
"pathlist": [
"pjssamples"
],
"initialModules": {
"/hello": "pjssamples/hello",
"/hello2": "pjssamples/hello2",
"/connect4": "pjssamples/connect4"
},
"dbDriver": "IBMi",
"timeout": 3600
}

thanks!

best regards,
Georg

Hi Georg,

Sorry we missed your question, and just noticed it today!

I had a few thoughts, though:

1) Simply setting the port to 443 wouldn't work by itself, you'd also have to enable SSL. Have you done that?

2) If you run both Profound UI and Profound.js on the same port, then you can only have one of them running at a time. (It's not possible to run both on the same port at the same time.) For this reason, I think it would make more sense to use a different port number. If you're calling Profound.js from your Profound UI application, then the Profound UI application should be on 443, and Profound.js would run on a different port, and the PROFOUNDJS_COMM_PORT environment variable would point to the Profound.js port number.

Hope that helps! Also, please remember that you can also contact Profound Logic support by e-mailing support@profoundlogic.com. If for some reason you're not getting an answer quickly in the forums, contacting support would give you a quick response.
