The WAS plugin ports (used for communication between IHS and WAS Embedded Express) are comprised of IHS, SSL, and RWP servlet ports. None of these ports are changeable during installation.
If these ports are used by another application on the RWP host, reconfigure that application to use different ports. If you cannot, you must change the ports RWP uses, after installation.
If you change ports in httpd.conf or serverindex.xml, you have to also change those in plugin-cfg.xml and virtualhosts.xml. In the virtualhosts.xml file, change the port number in the HostAlias_x section of the XML.
The default IHS port is 80 for all platforms except HP-UX. For HP-UX, the default port is 81. This information is listed in httpd.conf and plugin-cfg.xml. This port is changeable during installation.
The default SSL port is 443 for all platforms except HP-UX. For HP-UX, the default port is 444. This information is listed in ssl.conf and plugin-cfg.xml. This port is not changeable during installation.
WC_defaulthost is the port that relays non-SSL communication between IHS and WAS Embedded Express for the RWP Servlet (WAS Embedded Express) . The default port number for WC_defaulthost is 10080 (profile1 ) . There are a total of 6 ports defined in serverindex.xml for each profile for the RWP servlet that needs to be changed. WC_defaulthost is also defined in plugin-cfg.xml, WC_adminhost, WC_defaulthost_secure, WC_adminhost_secure, BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS, and SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS.
