Manually editing the ibmproxy.conf file

Caching Proxy can be configured manually, editing the ibmproxy.conf configuration file, or via the Configuration and Administration forms.

  • On Linux and UNIX systems, the ibmproxy.conf file is in the /etc/ directory.
  • On Windows systems, the ibmproxy.conf file is in C:\Program Files\IBM\edge\cachingproxy\cp\etc\en_US\.
The configuration file is made up of statements called directives. To change your configuration, edit the configuration file by modifying the directives, and save your changes. You can use almost any text editor, such as emacs and vi to edit the configuration file.
Note: Do not use the text file editor that is included in the Solaris Common Desktop Environment (CDE). The Solaris editor sometimes modifies the file's owning group and changes properties of the file link so that the Configuration and Administration forms cannot write to the configuration file.
Your changes to the configuration file take effect when you restart the server, unless you changed one of the directives identified in Table 1. If you changed one of the directives in that list, you must stop the server and start it again.
