Setting Up SSL for Document Conversion

If you have an SSL certificate, you can set up secure communication by editing the docconverter/conf/server.xml file and specifying the new secure URL in your Document Conversion Settings.

1. Edit the /usr/local/jive/services/docconverter/conf/server.xml file and add a connector to listen on port 8443.
   <Connector port="8443" maxThreads="200" scheme="https" secure="true" SSLEnabled="true" SSLCertificateFile="/usr/local/jive/services/docconverter/home/jive.crt" SSLCertificateKeyFile="/usr/local/jive/services/docconverter/home/jive.key" clientAuth="optional" />

   where SSLCertificateFile is the certificate file and SSLCertificateKeyFile is the key file.

   For more information on setting up Tomcat and https, see: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/ssl-howto.html
2. Make sure the SSL engine is on.
   <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener" SSLEngine="on"/>
3. Restart the document conversion service by running the following command as the jive user.
   jive restart docconverter
4. Go to System > Settings > Document Conversion Settings and edit the Conversion Service Settings to specify the new secure URL and port.
   https:// conversion-node :8443 /conversion/v1
5. Verify that you can run all conversion tests successfully.
