You can use a properties file to customize the
configuration of Lifecycle
Query Engine before
starting the application. As an administrator, you can use the lqe.releaseconfig.properties file
to pre-configure LQE before deploying the server. When you start the
server, the properties file is used to automatically configure LQE.
A
template file is provided that includes a default set of configuration
properties: authentication configuration, data sources, notification,
and backup. You use the template file as the basis for your
.properties file
and update it to include additional configuration properties.
For
a list of configuration properties that you can use, see the LQE Properties page in the Jazz.net wiki.
Procedure
- Navigate to the C:\LQEInstallDir\server\conf\lqe\templates folder.
- Copy the lqe.releaseconfig.properties file
to the C:\LQEInstallDir\server\conf\lqe folder.
The following screen capture shows the default configuration
properties that are defined in the template file.
- Edit the file to include the advanced properties that you
want configured when LQE starts.
For a list of configuration
properties that you can use, see the LQE Properties page in the Jazz.net wiki.
- Start the LQE server. After successfully
starting LQE for the first time, the file is automatically renamed
by LQE to lqe.releaseconfig-xxxxxxxxxxxxx.properties,
where xxxxxxxxxxxxx is a time stamp.
For example:
.
Results
Important: If you make an error when you are updating
the lqe.releaseconfig.properties file, before
restarting LQE with the corrected file, you must delete the database
related files. If you are using Lifecycle
Query Engine with
the default Derby database, delete the derbyDB folder.
If you are using LQE with an external database, delete the database
tables.
