Editing the Web Server Extension Configuration File (eapps.cfg)

---

The eappweb installer installs a single configuration file, eapps.cfg, for all the selected Siebel eBusiness Applications.

The default location for this file is the $SIEBEL_ROOT/SWEAPP_ROOT/bin subdirectory of the installation on your Web server host. The eapps.cfg file contains configuration information that you entered during the installation of the Siebel Web Server Extension on the Web server, including identity and connectivity information for the Siebel Object Managers, and login and security settings.

The file is divided into sections that can be used to configure a selection of Siebel eBusiness Applications from a global standpoint or at the application level. These are explained in the following pages. A number of parameters can also be manually input to control security, the ports used for Web server communications, and other operations.

NOTE:  IHS and HP-Apache2 users must have read privileges to access the eapps.cfg file. Also, if you selected any port other than the default for the Siebel Web Server Extension listening port, make sure that all users have read privileges for the eapps.cfg file.

To edit the eapps.cfg file

Use any text editing tool, such as vi.
Make any necessary changes as required.
Save the eapps.cfg file and restart the Web server.
In order for your changes to take effect, stop and restart any running processes, as described in Daemon Processes You Must Restart.

There are parameters that you may be required to set that enable specific applications or functionality at the Siebel Object Manager level on the Siebel Server. For information, see the appropriate section of Siebel Server Administration Guide.

NOTE:  You may need to configure secure connections to your Siebel applications. For more information, see Security Guide for Siebel eBusiness Applications.
