Configure frevvo.internal.baseurl in frevvo.xml for LDAP SSO

This parameter is needed in frevvo.xml for various activities like accessing ACL page , publishing templates , resetting tasks etc. Let's say you have a browser signed in via SSO to machine m1 (port 80).  IIS is running on m1 (port 80) redirecting /frevvo/web to frevvo running on m2:8082.   Browser submits form to m1, IIS redirects to m2:8082.  The doc action is a frevvo:// URI which gets resolved to h ttp://m1/frevvo/...  POSTs to this URI  but m1 rejects the POST since it is not authenticated.

To avoid situations such as these,  set frevvo.internal.baseurl to the actual host:port of the  server. Follow these steps:

  1. edit <frevvo-home>/tomcat/conf/cstalina/localhost/frevvo.xml
  2. Add the parameter shown below with your information: Save the changes to the file.
