Can I run web applications using secure sockets layer SSL

Visual LANSA Framework

Can I run web applications using secure sockets layer (SSL)?

Yes, Framework web applications will run with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). First see your HTML vendor's documentation regarding setting up SSL on your web server then see the LANSA for the Web documentation on using the Web Administrator to add another port for SSL (usually 443) with identical details to the main port and register a default user for the SSL port. With SSL running correctly on your web server simply change your application URLs to start with 'https://' instead of 'http://'.

When testing your SSL setup try accessing a simple HTML page first and then a LANSA for the Web function (eg. VF_PR004/VFU0401) before trying to run a Framework application under SSL.
