23 Configure Resource Availability and URL Generation

This chapter describes how to configure how resources are made available for HTTP access and how URLs are generated by Presentation Services.

To perform this configuration, you modify the instanceconfig.xml file to include the URL element and its interrelated subelements, as described in the following procedure.

  1. Open the instanceconfig.xml file for editing, located in:

    BI_DOMAIN/config/fmwconfig/biconfig/OBIPS

  2. Locate the section in which you must add the elements that are described in the table below.

  3. Include the elements and their ancestor elements as appropriate, as shown in the following example:

    <ServerInstance>
     <URL>
        <AbsoluteCommandURLPrefix>value</AbsoluteCommandURLPrefix>
        <CustomerResourcePhysicalPath>value</CustomerResourcePhysicalPath>
        <CustomerResourceVirtualPath>value</CustomerResourceVirtualPath>
        <ForceAbsoluteResourceURL>value</ForceAbsoluteResourceURL>
        <ResourcePhysicalPath>value</ResourcePhysicalPath>
        <ResourceServerPrefix>value</ResourceServerPrefix>
        <ResourceVirtualPath>value</ResourceVirtualPath>
      </URL>
     </ServerInstance>
    
  4. Save your changes and close the file.

  5. Restart the system.
