Create a Tiny Editors Services specific SSL configuration

This task outlines the process for creating a Tiny Editors Services specific SSL configuration from the web-aware trust store. This procedure includes updating the application.conf to add the SSL configuration attributes.

Before you begin:

An existing application.conf for the Tiny Editors Services is required. See: Create an application.conf for the Tiny Editors Services.
A suitable trust store is required. See: Create a web-aware trust store for the Tiny Editors Services for details.
Log in to the web interface of the WebSphere Application Server Console.

The default address is: https://host_name:9043/ibm/console
Expand Security and click the SSL certificate and key management link.
Click the SSL Configurations link.
Click New.
Define the SSL configuration.
1. Enter a Name for the Tiny Editors Servers SSL configuration
2. From the Trust store name list, Select the Tiny Editors Services trust store.
3. Click OK.
Click the Save link.
Open the Tiny Editors Services configuration file application.conf in a text editor.

Note

Use a plain text editor to avoid inserting invalid formatting or symbols into application.conf. Do not use a rich text editor such as Microsoft Word for editing configuration files.
Under the ephox root element, define the SSL configuration for the Tiny Editors Services by adding the following elements:
1. ephox.http.websphere.ssl-config-name : The name of the Tiny Editors Services SSL configuration set in step 5.a.
2. ephox.http.websphere.use-ssl-config : Set to true.
3. ephox.http.trust-all-cert : Set to false.
```
ephox {
  # ... other settings not shown
  http {
    websphere {
      ssl-config-name = "TinyServicesSSLSettings"
      use-ssl-config = true
    }
    trust-all-cert = false
  }
}
```
