Configuring Rational DOORS URLs

You must configure the Rational® DOORS® redirector service, the Rational DOORS Web Access server, and the Rational DOORS database server.

Procedure

  1. Open the server\festival\config\doorsRedirector.properties file in a text editor.
  2. Set the doors.url.prefix value to match the database server that is serving Rational DOORS Web Access in the form doors://host:port/, where host is the name of the Rational DOORS database server system and port is the port number that it uses (typically 36677).
    Important: Do not delete the / at the end of this value.
  3. Set the dwa.url.prefix value to the values you entered for -dwaProtocol, -dwaHost, and –dwaPort in the dbadmin command in Configuring the Rational DOORS database server. For example, if you entered -dwaProtocol http, -dwaHost dwaserver.ibm.com, and –dwaPort 8080, change the line to:
    <entry key="dwa.url.prefix">http://dwaserver.ibm.com:8080/dwa</entry>
    Important: The value of -dwaHost must be the fully qualified hostname of the computer.
  4. Optionally:
    • Disable forwarding from the redirector service to Rational DOORS Web Access by setting <entry key="dwa.enable">false</entry>
    • Disable forwarding from the redirector service to Rational DOORS by setting <entry key="doors.enable">false</entry>
  5. Save and close the file.
  6. Start the Rational DOORS Web Access components. See Running Rational DOORS Web Access.
