How to configure the Web Server to use SSL/HTTPS for using with Kofax Analytics?
Summary
To be able to use HTTPS protocol to login to Viewer, check the following requirements:
- During the Kofax Web Agent installation have "HTTPS" as protocol in Connectivity tab
- If the SSL certificate associated uses Server Name that is not localhost, change in each web.config file of all web modules (View/Viewer/Designer/InsightService/etc.) the IP 127.0.0.1 values to the DNS name desired.
Important Note: exe.config files for Studio, Scheduler Service, BridgeService have to be modified too
To know the locations of these files see:
