This application is used to configure OptiDoc users and other parameters that relate to the OptiDoc web server. The main purpose of this application is to allow a single web server user to have access to specified sets of OptiDoc database servers. This application is normally installed inside the virtual directory along with the web CGI and the web dataserver application. This application is a tabbed application.
The first tab is for custom settings. These settings can be set by the installation engineer or by the client to modify specific behaviors of the product that can be adapted to a particular environment.
The first three parameters are for the default user specification. Some operations are stateless and transient and therefore require a default login. One example of using the default login would be when the desktop client is used to submit projects over the web. In order to do this, the web server must be provided with a default datasource name, user, and login. No default values are supplied, if these settings are not configured.
DSN=mycompanydsn
USER=myusername
PWD=mypassword
The following parameter sets the maximum number of pages that the web server will allow during on the fly text to image conversions. COLD documents generally fall into two categories; forms, and reports. A single page form is easily converted to an image on the fly by the web server; however, a 2000 page report is not. The value of this number provides the cut off.
MAX_COLD_RENDER_PAGES=5
