Verifying the DivePort Installation

To verify a successful implementation of DivePort, complete the following steps:

  1. Open a browser and enter the URL for the DivePort portal, using a format similar to the following:

    https://<servername>/<portal name>

    For example, https://jsmith-001/diveport-test, where jsmith-001 is the server name, and diveport-test is the name of the DivePort portal. The URL must use a secure version of an HTTP, or HTTPS. This URL can also be found in Step 20 of Installing DivePort.

    Proceed to Step 5 if you installed a signed HTTPS certificate during the initial install.

    NOTE: DivePort resides outside of the company firewall and requires an HTTPS certificate to communicate with the Tomcat protocol.

  2. The first time you log on to DivePort after an installation using a self-signed certificate, you see the ClosedYour connection is not secure warning page.

    Your connection is not secure message.

  3. Click Advanced to Closedview the error message: The certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed.

    The insecure connection page with Advanced opened.

  4. If you created a self-signed certificate using the DivePort installation wizard, click Accept the Risk and Continue.

    The exception is added to the browser automatically.

    NOTE: You need to verify that your DivePort connection is secure when using a self-signed certificate on each machine that uses the DivePort client. In other words, include this information in your end-user training.

  5. If you see the ClosedWelcome to DivePort page with a log on prompt, you have successfully installed DivePort.
