Server configuration

{
  "server": {
    "license": "20180814032223:dW5pdmVyc2FsPVo.............RA==",
    "ip": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 8080,
    "protocol": "http",
    "minThreadPool": 10,
    "maxThreadPool": 30,
    "timeout": 5000
  }
}

For those environments where an SSL proxy/balancer is not available, an SSL certificate can be configured using the ssl object key in the server object definition. For more details of this feature check the user manual.

SSL Configuration example

{
  "server": {
    ...
    "ssl": {
      "keyStoreFile": "ssl/keystore",
      "keyStorePassword": "OBF:1vny1zlp2x9e6vmw1vn61x8g1zau2vn4",
      "keyManagerPassword": "OBF:1u3u4wmn4z5s1z7a5wnl1u2g"
    },
    ...
  }
}

If you use a proxy server to download the CRLs or obtain OCSP responses, the proxy object key must be added in the server object definition.

Sample Proxy Access configuration

{
  "server": {
    ...
    "proxy": {
      "server": "proxy.internal.local",
      "port": 3128
    },
    ...
  }
}

Sample configuration

Following is the content of the "debbie.json" demo configuration file included in with the validation service distribution.

Sample Debbie demo configuration file

{
  "server": {

    "protocol": "http",
    "minThreadPool": 10,
    "maxThreadPool": 30,
    "timeout": 5000
  },
  "debbie": {
    "cacheDir": "cache/",
    "policyDir": "policies/",
    "documentRepositoryDir": "/app/repository",
    "urlMaxRedirects": 1,
    "crlConnectionTimeout": 2000,
    "crlReadTimeout": 5000,
    "ocspConnectionTimeout": 2000,
    "ocspReadTimeout": 5000
