Configure Your Deployment for HTTPS

The steps listed in Configuring SAS Web Application Server to Use HTTPS in SAS Intelligence Platform: Middle-Tier Administration Guide change the communication path between the SAS Web Server and SAS Web Application Server to use HTTPS. If you completed those steps and configured the communication path to use HTTPS, then you must also configure the SAS Web Application Server to use HTTPS.
To configure the SAS Web Application Server to use HTTPS:
  1. Edit the sasenv file for your operating environment.
    Environment
    File
    Directory
    UNIX
    sasenv.sh
    /config-dir/Levn/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer7_1/bin
    Windows
    sasenv.bat
    \config-dir\Levn\Web\WebAppServer\SASServer7_1\bin
    Add the following options to the JVM_OPTS line:
    -Dbrm.midtier.use.https=true
    -Ddcm.midtier.use.https=true
  2. In Windows environments, edit the wrapper.conf file in the \config-dir\Levn\Web\WebAppServer\SASServer7_1\conf directory.
    Add the following line to the Java Additional Parameters section:
    wrapper.java.additional.n=--Ddcm.midtier.use.https=true
    
    The number n is the next number in the sequence of wrapper parameters.
  3. Restart SASServer7.
    Note: The options are needed only on SASServer7; they are not needed on SASServer11.
