Additional PTC HTTP Server Configurations

To allow external ADS users to login to Windchill the following settings must be added to the Apache Config:

• apacheWebApp.ldapUrl

• apacheWebApp.anonBind

• apacheWebApp.bindDN

• apacheWebApp.bindPwd

These settings can be propagated using the following commands:

xconfmanager -t apacheConf/config/apacheWebAppConfig.properties -s
ldapUrl="ldap://<LDAP_SERVER>/<SEARCH_BASE>?<user.uniqueIdAttribute>
?sub" -p
xconfmanager -t apacheConf/config/apacheWebAppConfig.properties -s
anonBind=false -p
xconfmanager -t apacheConf/config/apacheWebAppConfig.properties -s
bindDn="<DN>" -p
xconfmanager -t apacheConf/config/apacheWebAppConfig.properties -s
bindPwd=<PWD> p

To propagate these settings from a Windchill shell on Windows use the following command:

cd /d %Windchill%\apacheConf\config
ant -f applyApacheWebAppConfig.xml

Restart PTC HTTP Server and Windchill.
