Update the CMC Local Port

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have updated the Port Number 8080 to 80 on server.xml . The URL http://<servername>:80/BOE/CMC works absolutely fine, but when i run the CMC locally from the start menu option on the server it is still pointing to http://localhost:8080/BOE/CMC and unable to display the page. How can i re point on the localhost from 8080 to 80??

Hi,

Reset your IE browser settings and try this URL http://localhost/BOE/CMC

How to reset your IE Settings,

1. Tools> Internet options> Advanced

2. click on reset (It will clear you browser cache file &Cookies )

3. try to login with http://localhost/BOE/CMC

I hope it will help

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Raj,

Browse to the URL from start menu option and right click the URL for CMC -- Properties.

Here you will get an option to modify the URL (change port number to 80 from 8080) under the web document tab.

Hope this helps.

Hi Nagendra,

When i update the URL it throws a message 'Cannot apply changes to this internet shortcut'.

That's strange. It worked for me.

Did you try with the administrator's account ?

I will double check at my end too.

Else, bookmarking the new URL is the only option i believe.

Hello Rajshekar,

Right click on the Shortcut in the start menu and CLick on properties.

Click on the General TAb, look for "Location". Copy that location.

Click on Start > Run > paste the location path copied in the above step and hit Enter.

This will open the actual location of the shortcuts.

Now open Notepad and drag and drop the shortcut you want to edit onto Notepad.

You will see something as follows:

[InternetShortcut]

URL=http://your-CMC-URL:8080/BOE/CMC

Change the port number here and then save the file.

Try opening CMC using the Start Menu Shortcut now.

Hope this helps!

EDIT: BTW, since you are using port 80 you dont have to explicitly mention this port number in the URL.

Also try the URL only as http://localhost/BOE/CMC

Mihir

I do have the Admin User Access.

I checked again and it works for me.

Under properties (of the URL) go to security tab to verify you have sufficient rights to modify the URL.

Else Mihir's solution should do it for you.
