Author proxy with authentication configuration

Hello all,

I have installed a WPS 5.1 platform using the quickinstall -- no particular configuration customization.

I need to configure a proxy with authentication (!) for use with websphere services such as the rss feeds or the web clipping portlet.

I followed the IBM advised procedure consisting in modifying the <wpsroot>/shared/app/config/services/PortletServiceRegistryService.properties

[config]
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.service.ContentAccessServiceImpl.proxy.http.host= proxy
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.service.ContentAccessServiceImpl.proxy.http.port = port
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.service.ContentAccessServiceImpl.proxy.auth.enabled = true
com.ibm.wps.pe.pc.legacy.service.ContentAccessServiceImpl.proxy.auth.credentialslot = predefined.credential.ContentAccessProxy
[/config]

restarting the websphere portal server

and adding a shared vault slot (predefined.credential.ContentAccessProxy
) in the "DefaultAdminSegment" with a new "proxy" resource.

however, I still get an error while trying to connect an extranet resource?

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

M.

Michel,

Apologies for posting a question in your question, but it seems related to
me.

I have been through almost the same process as you, (following the
documentation) but I cannot understand how to do this bit:
and adding a shared vault slot
(predefined.credential.ContentAccessProxy) in the "DefaultAdminSegment" with
a new "proxy" resource.

Please can you provide some links/clues/anything that explains how to do
this?

Also, I noticed in the wps_root\config\wpsconfig.properties file that there
are two items that refer to the CAS service. These may need to be filled in,
and then possibly run WPSConfig batch file. (This is purely speculation with
no real knowledge that this is right)
