Description How can I use the ACX option when building portlets using a UNIX EP installation?
Solution To use the ACX option on UNIX when you create one-click capture portlets, the ActiveX processing must be delegated to a remote Windows machine that has EP installed. Specifically:
Install EP on a Solaris box. See the Enterprise Portal 6.0 Installation Guide.
Install EP on a Windows machine. See the Enterprise Portal 6.0 Installation Guide.
Edit global.properties.xml (see Appendix A, “Configuring Global Properties”) to:
Set the “acx” property to “remote”. On UNIX this property defaults to “none” and on Windows the default is “local.”
Set “acx.host” to the URL of the
host (for example, http://tanguy.sybase.com:8080).
The acx.servlet.url property should normally be left as is (default is /onepage/servlet/ACX).
Restart the UNIX EP installation.
Now you can use the ACX option when building portlets using the UNIX EP installation. See “Building aggregated portlets”.
