Resolution

To replace Tomcat with Jetty in Automic, follow these steps:

 

• Obtain the Automic Web Interface (AWI) package: Download the AWI ZIP file from the Broadcom support portal. This package includes the Jetty launcher, necessary bundles, and libraries.
• Extract the AWI package: Unzip the downloaded file to a directory of your choice.
• Configure Jetty:
  • If using a self-signed certificate, create a new certificate for Jetty and add it to the keystore.
  • Edit the configuration.properties file (located in the awi/config directory) and add/modify the following parameters:

Code

 

        https.enabled=true
        https.port=7443
        https.keystore.filename=keystore.selfsigned
        https.keystore.password=secret
        https.manager.password=secret

• Start Jetty:

  .Opens in new tab

  Run the aa-webui-launcher.jar file located in the root of the extracted AWI directory. This will start the embedded Jetty server.

   
• Verify the installation:

  .Opens in new tab

  Open a web browser and navigate to https://<hostname>:7443/awi. If the AWI login page appears, the installation was successful.

   
• Optional: Disable Tomcat:

  .Opens in new tab

  If Tomcat is no longer needed, stop the Tomcat service to free up resources
