Configuring HTTPS Settings in the P6 Administrator application

Previous TopicNext TopicContents

Native is the default mode for P6 EPPM. In Native mode, the P6 EPPM database acts as the authority and the application handles the authentication of the user who is logging into that application.

To set your HTTPS settings:

  1. Open the P6 Administrator application.
  2. In the Authentication tab, expand your configuration.
  3. Expand Authentication.
  4. In the Login Mode field, choose Native.
  5. Expand Authentication/HTTPS.
    1. In the Enabled field, choose true if users don't use an HTTPS URL for the login page. If you choose true, P6 redirects the users to an HTTPS login page to complete the login process. You must enable SSL communication for the application server or web server.

      Choose false if you do not want users redirected to an HTTPS URL for login.

      Caution: If kept as false, the application server will receive the passwords as clear text when a user logs into the application.

      Note: If you have problems accessing the P6 application and you enabled this setting, you will need to verify that you enabled the SSL listen port on your application server and that it matches the Authentication/HTTPS/Port setting below. You should also check the WebAccessLog to ensure there is not an "SSL disabled" error message.

    2. In the Port field, enter the port number used for SSL. You must enter the port number only if you enable the HTTPS option.

      The default is 443.

      Enter anything from 0-2147483647.
