Using a custom port while running the MettleCI Setup Wizard

Create a file called setupEnv.sh in the root of /opt/dm/mci, add the following environment variable definition to this file and ensure it is owned by mciworb with permissions /setupEnv.sh containing the following line, replacing <port-number> with the alternative port you wish to use:

Code Block
export JAVA_OPTS=-Ddw.server.applicationConnectors[0].port=<port-number>

Ensure this file is owned by the account you have devoted to Workbench (usually mciworkb) and has permissions 755 (-rwxr-xr-x:

...

). For example,

Code Block
$> sudo chmod 755 /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh

$> sudo chown mciworkb /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh

$> ls -l /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mciworkb dstage 64 Sep 30 09:02 /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh

$> cat /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh
export JAVA_OPTS=-Ddw.server.applicationConnectors[0].port=<port-number>5678

$>

Once /opt/dm/mci/setupEnv.sh has been created , restart MettleCI Workbenchyour Workbench service using the Service Manager utility on Windows, or this command on Unix:

Code Block
languagebash
$> sudo service dm-mettleci-workbench restart

The MettleCI Workbench Setup wizard Wizard will now be accessible via the specified port number (5678 in the example above).

Once the MettleCI Setup Wizard is complete, remove delete the updated setupEnv.sh file and complete the steps in the following section to ensure that Workbench continues to use your preferred ports .

Changing ports after completing the MettleCI Setup wizard

You can request make Workbench to operate on any ports you like by updating the following section in your <METTLECI-HOME-DIRECTORY>/config.yml file. This example exposes Workbench over HTTP on port 9090:

Code Block
languageyaml
server:
  applicationConnectors:
    - type: http
      port: 9090

When HTTPS has been configured, the applicationConnector applicationConnectors type will be HTTPS and there the server section will be contain additional HTTPS-specific properties, . You should only update the HTTPS port property, leaving the other values unchanged.

Once you’ve made your the port configuration changes, restart your Workbench service using the Service Manager utility on Windows, or this command on Unix: .
