12.2. Configuring the Web Container

Red Hat JBoss Fuse automatically deploys WAR files into a Web container, which is implemented by the PAX Web library. You can configure the Web container through the OSGi Configuration Admin service.

The Web container uses the following configuration file:

EsbInstallDir/etc/org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg

EsbInstallDir/etc/org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg

You must create this file, if it does not already exist in the EsbInstallDir/etc/ directory.

By default, the Web container listens on the TCP port, 8181. You can change this value by editing the etc/org.ops4j.pax.web.cfg file and setting the value of the org.osgi.service.http.port property, as follows:

# Configure the Web container
org.osgi.service.http.port=8181

# Configure the Web container
org.osgi.service.http.port=8181

The Web container is also used for deploying the Fuse Management Console. The instructions for securing the Web container with SSL/TLS are identical to the instructions for securing the Fuse Management Console with SSL/TLS. See chapter "Securing the Jetty HTTP Server" in "Security Guide" for details.

The properties that you can set in the Web container's configuration file are defined by the PAX Web library. You can set the following kinds of property:
