By default, Crowd is configured to use port 8095. If this port is already in use within your network, you will need to change the port that Crowd uses.

Follow these steps:

  1. Edit the build.properties file, as described in Important Directories and Files.
  2. Change the crowd.url property to the new port on which the Crowd Administration Console will be accessed.
  3. Change the demo.url property to the new port on which the Crowd 'demo' application will be accessed.
  4. Change the openidserver.url property to the new port on which the CrowdID Server will be accessed.
  5. Run the build.xml script, as described in Important Directories and Files.

    If you have gone through the installer and configured crowd you might also need to change the crowd.properties file in your crowd home directory to match the new ip:port/url.

    Took me a while to figure this out, hope it helps some of you.

      Thx, Chad, this sure has helped me; I just did a migration to a newer version of Crowd using XML export/import.

      It had me stumped for a moment until I read your post.

      Everything worked, except authentication to the Crowd interface itself.

      I guess I could have changed the port in the xml export before importing... I will let you know when I do another upgrade :-)
