Changing default Origin Server settings

  1. Extract the Origin Server package.
  2. Open the httporigin/conf/http/origin.xml file.
  3. Set the following properties:
    • Webroot
    • Port
    • The folder where the log files are to be written
    • Maximum content length
    • MissingFragmentResponseCode:

      Response code to be returned by Origin Server for missing fragments. If this property is not configured, Origin Server returns 404 for missing fragments. Use custom response code for missing fragments to implement failover at the caching layer.

    • TTL Header values: Specifies TTL values in integral seconds for various file types.
      If TTL values are not set up for a file type, the following headers are set in the file type's http response:
      • max-age header, set to TTL value
      • Date header, set to response date
      • Expires header, set to response date + TTL
      The following file types are supported:
      • F4F
      • F4M
      • Bootstrap
      • CrossDomain
      • M3U8
