Installing and enabling Web Service Proxy in a sedex Client installation

When installing the sedex Client, the optional sedex Web Service Proxy component is always installed but is only enabled if selected in step 11 of the installer. If necessary the Web Service Proxy can be enabled anytime as follows.

A property in the sedex Client configuration determines whether the sedex Web Service Proxy is enabled or disabled. See Properties for details on this configuration file. The following excerpt from a sample configuration shows an enabled sedex Web Service Proxy:

[...]
wsproxy.start=true
[...]

Note: A configuration change only takes effect after a restart.

A running sedex Client’s monitoring page will show whether the sedex Web Service Proxy is running. If some of the “wsproxy-” elements shown below are contained, the sedex Web Service Proxy is up and running. If there are no entries starting with the prefix “wsproxy-“, then the sedex Web Service Proxy is disabled. See Monitoring for how to access the monitoring page.
