Configure the endpoint of the application resources (full profile)

For the WAS full profile, configure the endpoint of the application resources in the environment entries of the Application Center services and the Application Center console applications.

Follow this procedure when we must change the URI protocol, hostname, and port used by the mobile client to manage the applications on the device. Since IBM Worklight v6.0, we use the JNDI environment entries.

  1. Log in to the WebSphere Application Server console.

  2. Select Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.

  3. Click IBM Application Center Services.

  4. In the "Web Module Properties" section, select Environment entries for Web modules.

  5. Assign the appropriate values for the following environment entries:

    1. For ibm.appcenter.proxy.host, assign the hostname.

    2. For ibm.appcenter.proxy.port, assign the port number.

    3. For ibm.appcenter.proxy.protocol, assign the external protocol.

    4. Click OK and save the configuration.

  6. Select Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications.

  7. Click IBM Application Center Console.

  8. In the "Web Module Properties" section, select Environment entries for Web modules.

  9. For ibm.appcenter.services.endpoint, assign the full URI of the Application Center REST services (the URI of the applicationcenter.war file).

    • In a scenario with a firewall or a secured reverse proxy, this URI must be the external URI and not the internal URI inside the local LAN.

    • Use the asterisk (*) character as wildcard to specify that the Application Center REST services use the same value as the Application Center console. For example: *://*:*/appcenter means use the same protocol, host, and port as the Application Center console, but use appcenter as context root.

  10. Click OK and save the configuration. For a complete list of JNDI properties we can set, see List of JNDI properties for the Application Center.
