Step 2. Setup SSL in AppServer Configuration File

1. Locate the AppServerX.xml configuration file in the WebSpellChecker installation folder on your server. The default path to AppServerX.xml file: <WebSpellChecker_Installation_Path>/AppServer/AppServerX.xml

23. Scroll down to the section with parameters responsible for secure connection: <SSL>...</SSL>.

Code Block
languagexml
themeEmacs
		<!-- Secure connection -->
		<SSL>
			<EnableSSL>false</EnableSSL>
			<!-- Transport Layer Security (TLS) version. Possible values: TLSV1, TLSV1_1, TLSV1_2 -->
			<TLSVersion>TLSV1_2</TLSVersion>
			<!--For Linux: path to certificate file (PEM format). Path example: /opt/WSC/AppServer/cert.pem -->
			<!--For Windows: path to PKCS #12 (*.pfx) file containing the certificate and corresponding private key. Path example: C:/Program Files/WebSpellChecker/AppServer/certificate.pfx -->
			<SSLCertificateFile></SSLCertificateFile>
			<!--For Linux only. Path to private key file (PEM format). Path example: /opt/WSC/AppServer/key.pem -->
			<SSLCertificateKeyFile></SSLCertificateKeyFile>
			<!--Certificate Export Password. Leave empty if you don't have password -->
			<SSLCertificatePassword>your_certificate_password</SSLCertificatePassword>
		</SSL>

34. Change the default value for the EnableSSL parameter to True.

Code Block
languagexml
themeEmacs
<EnableSSL>true</EnableSSL>

45. Specify path to your certificate file (*.pfx or *.pem) in the SSLCertificateFile parameter.

Code Block
languagexml
themeEmacs
<!--For Linux: path to certificate file (PEM format). Path example: /opt/WSC/AppServer/cert.pem -->
<!--For Windows: path to PKCS #12 (*.pfx) file containing the certificate and corresponding private key. Path example: C:/Program Files/WebSpellChecker/AppServer/certificate.pfx -->
<SSLCertificateFile></SSLCertificateFile>
<!--For Linux only. Path to private key file (PEM format). Path example: /opt/WSC/AppServer/key.pem -->
<SSLCertificateKeyFile></SSLCertificateKeyFile>

56. If your SSL certificate is password-protected, use the SSLCertificatePassword tag to provide a password.  

Code Block
languagexml
themeEmacs
<SSLCertificatePassword>your_certificate_password</SSLCertificatePassword>
