How to change the Identity Service port

This is a short guide on how to change the Identity Service port and keep the existing configuration with other components.

note

This workflow is valid for Identity Service v22.12 and higher.

Prerequisites

  1. Identity Service (further – IS) version 22.12 or higher is installed on your computer.
  2. Some modules (e.g. OpenLM Server, DSS, etc.) are connected to the IS.

The process

  1. Disable all the components' security, one by one, in the IS.

    Identity Service Security Configuration tab with a component's security being disabled.

    note

    During the port change, all components will work without any security. If it is critical for you to keep the EasyAdmin user interface and other modules unavailable to unauthorized users, you can shut down all component services until the configuration is done.

  2. Log out from the Identity Service.

    Identity Service user menu with the Logout option.

  3. Stop the Identity Service.

  4. Open CMD and use the cd command to navigate to the SecurityService folder. By default:

    cd C:\Program Files\OpenLM\OpenLM Identity Service\SecurityService
  5. Execute the command below, replacing the address with the FQDN of your machine and any free port you want to use for IS access:

    OpenLM.SecurityService -url "http(s)://new.identity.com:5001"

    Command prompt running OpenLM.SecurityService with the new Identity Service URL.

  6. Start the IS service.

  7. Log in to the Identity Service with the new URL.

    Identity Service login screen opened from the new URL and port.

  8. Re-connect all your components to the IS.
