Configuring the Email Marketing Server to Use HTTPS on Microsoft Windows

The following procedure describes how to configure Email Marketing Server components for HTTPS communications on a Microsoft Windows environment.

To configure the Email Marketing Server to Use HTTPS on Windows

  1. On the computer on which you installed the Email Sending Daemon, create a keystore file for the CA certificate file used by the Siebel Web server using a program such as Java keytool.

    For example, create a keystore file named cacerts.jks.

  2. Import the Siebel Web server certificate file into the lib\security folder of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) being used by the Email Marketing Server daemons as described in Steps 2 and 3 in Configuring the Email Marketing Server to Use HTTPS on UNIX .

  3. (Optional) If the Click Through Daemon is installed on a different computer to the Email Sending Daemon, create a keystore file and import the Siebel Web server certificate into the keystore file on the Click Through Daemon computer.

    To perform these tasks, follow the instructions in Steps 1 through 3 in Configuring the Email Marketing Server to Use HTTPS on UNIX, substituting references to the Email Sending Daemon with the Click Through Daemon.

  4. (Optional) If the Bounce Handler Daemon is installed on a different computer to the Email Sending Daemon, create a keystore file and import the Siebel Web server certificate into the keystore file on the Bounce Handler Daemon computer.

    To perform these tasks, follow the instructions in Steps 1 through 3 in Configuring the Email Marketing Server to Use HTTPS on UNIX , substituting references to the Email Sending Daemon with the Bounce Handler Daemon.

  5. When configuring the Web services properties for Email Sending Daemon, Click Through Daemon, and Bounce Handler Daemon, make sure that the URL specified for the component.handler.webservice.url parameter points to a Siebel Inbound Web service that uses HTTPS
