Changing web server admin utility CGI settings

If you use the Helix ALM License Server Web Admin Utility, you can change the CGI settings using the License Server CGI Configuration utility. You can change the format of date and time values displayed in the admin utility, license server address and port if it is running on a different computer than the CGI, and manage public keys used if RSA key exchange is enabled for the license server.

You must run the configuration utility as an administrator user on the computer that hosts the admin utility CGI.

1. Start the CGI configuration utility.

  • Windows—Choose All Programs > Perforce > Helix ALM License Server > Helix ALM License Server CGI Configuration on the Start menu.
  • Linux—Enter /usr/bin/lscgiconfig.

The License Server CGI Configuration dialog box opens.

2. Make any changes.
