Configuring Connections to the Directory

To configure a connection between the Web application and the directory that contains the configuration for the enterprise service portal:

  1. Access the temporary folder to which you copied the WAR file.
      cd tempWar
  2. Extract the boot.props file from the WAR file.
      jar xvf <filename> WEB-INF/boot.props

    <filename>—Name of the WAR file; for example, entmgr.war

  3. Edit the boot.props file with any text editor.

    See Initialization Properties for Enterprise Service Portals.

  4. Replace the boot.props file in the WAR file.
      jar uvf <filename> WEB-INF/boot.props
