Shorter URL in the browser

borisstankov

Hello guys,

I was wondering if there is a way where I can configure the alfresco tomcat to listen for an IP/FQDN and redirect to the full URL of the alfresco. Also I want to avoid any additional SW installed on the system, for example some apache installed in front and redirects to the alfresco tomcat.

For example:
I put in my browser: myalfresco.domain.net
The Alfresco tomcat redirects me to: https://myalfresco.domain.net:8443/share/page

I'm able to configure the with a webapp ROOT by doing the following:
1. I create a new folder "ROOT" under: /opt/alfresco-5.0.c/tomcat/webapps/
2. I create a index.html file with the following code in it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
&nbsp; <head>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=https://myalfresco.domain.net:8443/share/page/">
&nbsp; </head>
&nbsp; <body>
&nbsp; </body>
</html>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

3. Now when I put in the browser: myalfresco.domain.net:8080 the alfresco tomcat redirects me to https://myalfresco.domain.net:8443/share/page/, but I want to avaoid putting in the browser any port numbers, just an FQDN (as I explained above).

Any ideas?

Regards!

Try this in your index.html

<html>
  <head>
    <title>your title</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      window.location = 'https://fqdn/share/';
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <span>Some verbiage to users.</span>
  </body>
</html>

Hi ESWBitto,

Unfortunatelly, I got the same result as with my code. I do not get redirected if I use only the IP address. When I put the port number, then I get redirected.

Try this in your tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension folder.

Do a find and look up "FQDN" and replace it with yours.

borisstankov

Sorry,
I got other tasks to do.

Here what I did:
I moved the ROOT webapp and put this code in the share-config-custom.xml, but nothing happens now. When I put the IP address in the browser I got the apache error. If I put the port 8080 after the IP address, I got a blank page - just white screen.
If I bring back the ROOT app, I got the same results as before.

Regards.

eswbitto

Did you replace the "fqdn" with your dns name?

borisstankov

Sorry, I forgot to mentioned that, but yes, I did replace them.
Have you tested this code on your installation? May be I miss something elsewhere….
