Web Servers for Hewlett-Packard (HP)
OpenVMS
If you are running Caché on OpenVMS, you can use Web servers from Apache or HP. The HP Secure Web Server (SWS)
is, in fact, based on the Apache server; the main difference is that the modules for supporting secure SSL-based communication
are included in the prebuilt HP product.
The SWS server was formerly known as the Compaq Secure Web Server (CSWS) before the product line was taken over
by Hewlett-Packard.
6.1 Apache and HP Secure Web Server (SWS)
The configuration procedures described here are based on the standard layout and configuration for the Apache and SWS
servers operating under OpenVMS.
Apache is usually installed in the directory represented by:
APACHE$ROOT
6.1.1 Installation on OpenVMS (All Connectivity Options)
Follow the directions in this section, then follow the directions in either Option 1 or Option 2 in the sections that follow.
Install the CSP Gateway components in the Apache directory tree (unlike either Windows or UNIX® described previously
in the this book). The privileges of the OpenVMS user account under which Apache runs (usually APACHE$WWW) are usually
very restrictive. Including the Gateway components within the Apache directory tree avoids the need to assign additional
privileges to Apache (or reduce the level of protection defined for the Caché directory tree).
Install the CSP Gateway components and the CSP static files as follows:
1. NSD Module (if required)
• CSPNSD.EXE
The default location for this image is:
APACHE$ROOT:[CSP]
The NSD should be run from within this directory (its home directory). The configuration file (CSP.INI) and Event
Log (CSP.LOG) are written in this directory.
