How do you enable SSL on SOAP port for DataSync Mobility Pack AFTER the install?
You may be wondering why I'd want to do this, why not just enable SOAP to begin with. Well, because I have clients who can't have their GroupWise systems restarted willy-nilly and they hadn't enabled SOAP for any reason prior to needing DataSync installed. I knew it could be done, but I couldn't believe it would be easy. (It's been one of "those" weeks.)
So I went back to the PDF I had for the Data Synchronizer for Mobility Pack and found a better term to search on. And then I did a D'oh SMH! It really IS that easy to enable/disable SSL for SOAP to your heart's content. (Well, other than the fact that the POA will need to be restarted to accept the change.)
So, here's the instructions on how to do this:
- Open up ConsoleOne however you are using it (for my clients, that means getting to it from the Linux server hosting the MTA).
- Open the Properties for the POA object (not the PO, the actual agent). Pick GroupWise | Agent Settings and check/uncheck the box for "Enable SOAP".
- Pick GroupWise | Network Address and from the pull down in the SSL column for "Internal SOAP" and select "Disabled" or "Required".
- Restart your POA
- In Synchronizer Web Admin, (https://data_sync_server:8120/login) click the GroupWise Connector to display the GroupWise Connector Configuration page.
- In the https for a secure SSL connection or http for a non-secure connection. field, use
- Click .
- Click on the menu bar to return to the main Synchronizer Web Admin page.
- In the column for the GroupWise Connector, click to stop the GroupWise Connector, then click to start the GroupWise Connector with the new setting in effect.
Thank you for the info! This is exactly what I need this morning.
