Resolving The Problem

  1. Open the cbConfig.properties file for editing on the Business Automation Workflow server.
    • Note: the location of the cbConfig.properties is 
      [BAW installation location]/CaseManagement/properties/caseconfig/cbConfig.properties.
  2. Find the NEXUS_URL parameter.
    • Note: the default value of the NEXUS_URL parameter is Content Navigator root context, such as /navigator.
  3. Change the NEXUS_URL parameter value to a fully qualified Content Navigator URL, such as https://[BAW server]:[port]/navigator
  4. Restart the Business Automation Workflow server.
