After deploying SDL Online Editor, you need to configure a few properties on your WorldServer environment to make sure that WorldServer can connect to SDL Online Editor.
Procedure
- On the WorldServer host machine, go to the WS_CONFIG folder and open the general.properties file with a text editor.
- Add the following properties:
- sdl_online_editor_enabled=true
- bcm_service.url=<protocol>://<oe_host>:<bcm_port>
- sdl_online_editor.url=<protocol>://<oe_host>:<oe_port>
- bcm_service.use_compression=true
In this case,
<oe_host> is the IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the machine on which you deployed the
SDL Online Editor services,
<protocol> is the protocol on which each
SDL Online Editor service is installed, and
<bcm_port> is the port on which the SDL BCM Service is running (for example, 8080 on HTTP or 8043 on HTTPS).
- Save and close the general.properties file.
- Go to the WS_CONFIG\ws folder and open the ui.properties file with a text editor.
- Add the following properties:
- es.language_host=<oe_host>:<oe_port>
- es.router.url=<oe_host>:<oe_router_port>
In this case,
<oe_host> is the IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the machine on which you deployed the
SDL Online Editor services,
<oe_port> is the HTTPS port used by
SDL Online Editor, and
<oe_router_port> is the port on which the SDL Editor Service Router is running (for example, 90 on HTTP or 9443 on HTTPS).
- Save and close the ui.properties file.
- Stop the WorldServer service and start it again.
What to do next
Grant the appropriate
SDL Online Editor permissions to your
WorldServer user types.
Tip: By default, your SDL Online Editor log files are saved in the bin\logs subfolder of each service folder; for example, C:\Program Files\SDL\Editor Service Router\bin\logs for the SDL Editor Service Router. Optionally, you can also change the location where your log files are saved.
