Enable SSL Support on EventLog Analyzer

Enable SSL Support on EventLog Analyzer

The article Working with SSL ( http://www.manageengine.com/products/eventlog/help/appendix/eventflow_ssl_support.html) is a bit inaccurate . The part to comment, to disable the HTTP protocol, is (in the file <EventLog Analyzer_Home> /server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/server.xml)

<!-- A HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
<!-- The compression parameters are taken from the default Tomcat server.xml-->
      <!-- <Connector port="8080" address="${jboss.bind.address}"
         maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
         enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
         connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"/> -->

After restart the service ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer 6.0 (is not necessary to restart the server, on Windows), you should








use the URL to enable the HTTPS connection: https://<FQDN_Of_EventLog_Analyzer_Server>:8400 and not the URL https:// <hostname> :8763 as reported in the article Working with SSL ( http://www.manageengine.com/products/eventlog/help/appendix/eventflow_ssl_support.html).

To create a simple PKI infrastructure with OpenSSL, you can read the article, Creating a PKI infrastructure with OpenSSL (http://www.homeworks.it/Html/OpenSSL_PKI_Articolo_Eng.html)
