Configuring Email Marketing Components for HTTPS Communications

This topic describes how to configure the Email Marketing Server components to support communications with Siebel Marketing using the HTTPS protocol.

This task is a step in Roadmap for Configuring Email Marketing Daemons.

If the Siebel Web server has been configured to use SSL or TLS encryption for communications with Web clients (HTTPS protocol), and if the Web service endpoint URL that the Email Marketing components use to connect with Siebel Marketing uses HTTPS, then you must perform the following tasks:

  • Import the certificate file used by the Siebel Web server onto the computer on which you installed the Email Marketing components.

  • Configure the Windows services or UNIX shell scripts used to start the Email Marketing Server components for HTTPS.

The procedures in this topic describe how to perform these tasks in a Windows environment and in a UNIX environment.
