Issue
How can the default HTTP port for a Niagara R2 UNC station be changed?
Environment
Niagara R2 UNC station
Cause
The station need to change the default port 80 to a non-standard HTTP port in the httpPort text box.
Resolution
Do the following:
- In WorkPlace Pro, open the station offline
- In the tree view, right-click on the offline station and select Go - Properties
- On the Properties sheet, click the Config tab
- Edit the httpPort text box, removing the default port of 80 and replacing it with your chosen port number (e.g. 8081)
- Click Apply
- In the tree view, right-click on the offline station and select Close
- Open the Admin Tool, and log into the UNC
- Right-click the station name (not the host name or address) and select Edit - Properties. This opens the station.properties file
- Add the following line to the station.properties file: httpPort=[newport] (newport = port number from step 4), example httpPort=8081
- From the file menu, choose File - Close. The system will prompt you to save any changes. Choose Yes.
- In the Admin Tool, click the Installation tab
- On the Installation Sheet, click Install Station
- Select the station from step 4, then click OK
- In the Confirm dialog box, click Yes
- In the Select Database Format dialog box, select the DB radio button, then click OK
- The system will load the offline database to the UNC, then re-boot the station. When finished, the message box will display "Installation Complete"
