Are you having trouble finding the port number of your PeopleSoft web server? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of locating your PeopleSoft web server port number. Let’s get started!

Method 1: Checking the Configuration File

If you have access to the PeopleSoft server machine, you can find the web server port number by following these steps:

  1. Log in to the PeopleSoft server machine.

  2. Navigate to the directory where your PeopleSoft installation is located. This is typically under the PS_HOME directory.

  3. Look for a file named psappsrv.cfg or psprcs.cfg.

    These files contain the configuration settings for the application server and process scheduler respectively.

  4. Open the configuration file using a text editor.

  5. Search for a line that starts with “ListenPort”. The value next to it represents your web server port number.

If you are unable to find the configuration file or face any difficulties, don’t worry! There’s another method you can try.

Method 2: Using Command Prompt or Terminal

If you have command prompt or terminal access to your PeopleSoft server machine, follow these steps:

  1. Open a command prompt or terminal window on your computer.

  2. Type in the command to connect to your PeopleSoft server machine. For example, if you are using SSH, you can use the command ssh [username]@[server_ip_address].

  3. Once you are connected to the server, type in the command to navigate to the directory where your PeopleSoft installation is located.

  4. Next, type in the command to search for the configuration file.

    For example, if you are looking for the application server configuration file, you can use the command find . -name psappsrv.

  5. Once you have located the configuration file, open it using a text editor by typing in the command with the file path.

  6. In the configuration file, search for a line that starts with “ListenPort”.
