Note that any other client code you use must also be configured for SSL connections to AquaLogic Service Registry using the appropriate tools for that type of client. |
Import the WebLogic Server SSL certificate to the BEA AquaLogic Service Registry configuration file.
You can obtain the WebLogic SSL certificate via a browser by accessing a WebLogic-hosted page using HTTPS, and exporting the certificate to a Base-64 .cer file.
To import this certificate into AquaLogic Service Registry, use the PStoreTool located in [registry_home]/bin PStoreTool.sh
. add – config [registry_home]/conf/clientconf.xml -certFile [weblogic.cer]
This completes the deployment. The BEA AquaLogic Service Registry URL is:
http://[hostname]:[http_port]/[context]/uddi/web
