Setting JBOSS-OIM with Apache

If you don't want your oim users to key in the port number in the url while accessing OIM application server, you may add an apache web server in front of jboss. This is one of the options. Here is how you set this:

Download Apache web server from the website and set it up by running the installer.

Suppose you installed Apache 2.0.63 in the following folder : C:\Apache2063

Then go to C:\Apache2063\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf file and add the following line to this file:

Redirect permanent /xlWebApp http://server:8080/xlWebApp

Please note that "server" value should be the full name of the server (FQDN - Fully Qualified Domain Name) - something like - nj.somecompany.com

After that restart apache web server and you are all done !!
