HTTP Configuration

If you have installed FTrack using the default installation package, then the product will be server using HTTP by Apache Tomcat. The default port for the installation is 8080, this means that users must add an 8080 to all URLs. This is sometimes a problem for some Network Administrations due to security reasons.

If you want to change the port 8080 to the standard port 80 (or any other requested by your organization) and you don't have experience on managing Apache Tomcat, just edit file C:\Program Files\FTrack\Tomcat\conf\server.xml.

You will find inside the following paragraph:

<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="60000"/>

Make sure you change it for:

<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
port="80" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="60000"/>

 
Now FTrack Server will listen port 80.
