The conf/texis.ini config file in the Texis install dir
can have an optional [Proxy Module] section with settings for
the Proxy Module. For details on the format of this file in general,
see the "Texis Configuration File" section of the Texis manual.
Settings in the [Proxy Module] section are:
Target
Default: localhost, and port derived from [Httpd] Port
This is a URL prefix (protocol, host, optional port) to the target
machine this proxy module will connect to. It should be the
hostname of your Webinator machine or Search Appliance. It can be
http, or https (if the target machine accepts HTTPS),
and can specify a port number. Example: http://machine.example.com.
Debug Command
Default: unset
An optional setting that defines a URL suffix for invoking the
Proxy Module debug interface. For example, if Debug Command is
set to debug.html, then any Proxy Module URL that ends with
debug.html
will invoke the debug interface.
Client Certificate
Default: unset
Names a client certificate that should be loaded if the target
machine responds that one is necessary. The setting is the name
of the certificate that will be loaded from the local machine's
OS-managed certificate store.
SSL Flags
Default: unset
Option flags that can be set for SSL communications. Multiple
options may be specified by separating them with a vertical pipe
(|). The possible values and their effects are:
SECURITY_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_CN_INVALID - Stops
producing an error when the server's SSL certificate common
name (host name field) is incorrect
SECURITY_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_DATE_INVALID - Stops
producing an error when SSL certificate date that was received
from the server is bad, or the certificate is expired
SECURITY_FLAG_IGNORE_UNKNOWN_CA - Stops producing an
error when an unknown Certificate Authority is used by a
server certificate.
SECURITY_FLAG_IGNORE_CERT_WRONG_USAGE - Stops
producing an error when a certificate is used improperly
Trace Dir
Default: unset
For debug use; sets the directory to be used for the tracing logs.
Multiple log files will be created - one for the main Proxy
Module, one for the Auth Proxy, and one for the Auth Pipe Server.
New logs are started when the Proxy Module starts up.
Trace Flags
Default: unset
For debug use; sets flags to determine what gets logged. Multiple
flags can be specified in a comma separated list. Possible flags
are:
SETTINGS - Traces the reading of the settings
MAIN - Traces all other operations
PRE_MAIN - Output all operations before they're
performed, useful for finding an operation that's hanging
DATA - Outputs the contents of all buffers as
they're used; includes hex dump
ALL - Outputs all information. The tracing log
files will grow very large very quickly under normal useage.
