Hi,
Following on from my http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?t=3028 post on setting up servoy server on a headless server I have some more questions:
1. What exactly are the RMI settings for in the servoy configuration? Does the servoy client connect to the server using RMI or webservices over HTTP or neither? If so is communitcaion via HTTP possible (easier with firewalls) if not then what is RMI for?
2. The http://mydomain:8080/servoy-admin/ web app is accessable only over http. This is insecure. Is there any way to enforce that it is only available over https? Can I change the tomcat settings manually?
3. The only way I can see to use the production server is by
3.1 Export the solution from my completely seperate development machine setup and
3.1 Import it into the production server via the web admin interface.
Is it at all possible to have our server running on a headless remote machine and have servoy developer connect to it rather than connecting to the local server? Would this be equivalent to manually editing the repository (and log and user data) database server setup in servoy.properties to point to the database server on the production server?
4. What are the advisable user permissions for the user that runs servoy (I have seen its not recommended to be run as root, probably for the standard reasons)
Cheers
