How do I enable SWF verification on Location level in the Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf ?

I have tried this but it does not block the player even if I dont have any whitelist file in the whitelist folder:

<Location /phds-hds-vod>

    HttpStreamingJITPEnabled true

    HttpStreamingContentPath "../webroot/vod/phds"

    JitFmsDirPath ".."

    Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks

    EncryptionScope server

    ProtectionScheme phds

    #######################   

    PHDSCommonKeyFile /opt/adobe/fms/phds/common-key.bin

    PHDSSWFVerification true

    PHDSSWFWhiteListFolder /opt/adobe/fms/whitelist/

</Location>

Though i am not 100% sure - absence of whitelist in configured folder probably turns off the SWFv completly (my gut feeling - i'll find exact info and let you know).

I think you need to test using proper whitelist of correct player - see if playback happens and then use another player who's whitelist is not present.

Do I need to restart the FMS in order for it to re-read the whitelist files?

I don't think so. However, you would like to clean any cache of the DRM meta-data on origin or proxy server of the Apache.

But if you have edit the location of the whitelist files in httpd.conf then yes, you will have to restart the Apache. But if you have just added files in the preconfigured folder, then I feel answer should be no..
