The
following settings may be added, modified, or deleted in the ibiweb.cfg
file:
- [*|dev1;dev2]
Specifies user IDs that can view traces and access quick
links. This setting also controls certain Developer
Studio features,
such as the ability to deploy an application and write to the Web
server directories. If you change this setting from an * to a list
of developer user IDs, then these features will be available only
to the specified developer user IDs. Developers can set these WebFOCUS Client credentials under the WebFOCUS Environments properties in Developer Studio.
For
information about requirements for developer IDs, see the description
of the IBIWFC_AUTHENTICATION parameter.
* - Signifies that any user
ID is valid.
dev1;dev2 - Are user IDs
that can only view traces and access the resources under the Quick
Links menu. For Developer Studio, are the user IDs that
can issue application commands.
For more information about application
commands, see the Developer Studio Application Development
Getting Started manual.
- ADMINISTRATORS =admin1;admin2
Admin is the default value.
For information about requirements for
administrator IDs, see the description of the IBIWFC_AUTHENTICATION
parameter.
admin1;admin2 - Are the
user IDs that can issue configuration commands and application commands.
For more information about valid application
commands, see the Developing Reporting Applications manual.
- IBIWFC_AUTHENTICATION=[NONE|EDA|EDA:EDANODE|WEB|WEBHDR:httpvariable]
Optionally specifies the authentication
method used to verify the administrator or developer user IDs.
where:
- NONE
Is the default value, which means that no password authentication
is desired.
- EDA
Indicates authentication against the default WebFOCUS Reporting server. Any user
IDs stored in the ADMINISTRATORS and DEVELOPERS parameters must
be able to connect to the default WebFOCUS Reporting Server
(IBI_REPORT_SERVER).
- EDANODE:EDANODE
Indicates authentication against a particular WebFOCUS Reporting Server. Only one
EDANODE may be listed. If an EDANODE has been specified, then any
user IDs stored in the ADMINISTRATORS and DEVELOPERS parameters
must be able to connect to that EDANODE.
- WEB
Indicates Web server authentication. If using the WFServlet,
J2EE role based security is required for the WEB setting. Any user
IDs stored in the ADMINISTRATORS and DEVELOPERS parameters must
be able to connect to the Web server specified in the WebFOCUS configuration.
- WEBHDR:httpvariable
Indicates Web server authentication against the userid found
in the HTTP variable you specify in the input box.
- trace_location=directory
Defaults to \ibi\WebFOCUS76\logs.
directory - Specifies
a directory where trace files are written.
- MRUSERLOG
This log should be enabled only when requested by a customer
support representative. It determines whether a log file of user
actions is created and, if so, how frequently:
- Off does not
create a log file.
- Daily basis
creates a log file on a daily basis.
- Hourly basis
creates a log file on an hourly basis.
The MR User Log files are created in
the location specified by the TRACE_LOCATION variable. The names
of the log files have the following format:
mr_user_MMDD[_HH].log
where:
- user
Is the value of the IBIMR_user variable.
- MM
Is a two-digit number to indicate the month. The first month
of the year is JANUARY, which is 01.
- DD
Is a two-digit number to indicate the day of the month. The
first day of the month has the value 01.
- [_HH]
Is shown when the HOUR value of the MRUSERLOG variable is
chosen. HH is a two-digit number to indicate the hour of the day
using the 24-hour clock. For example, at 10:04:15.250 PM, HH is
22.
- TRACE={ON|OFF}
Used to enable and disable tracing. This setting includes
WFAPI and client connector traces (NGXXJ or JLINK) and is set automatically
when you enable or disable traces using the trace options under
the Diagnostics menu. Tracing can be turned on or off at any time
(the Web server does not need to be restarted). Every request generates a
new trace file.
ON - Turns tracing on.
OFF -
Turns tracing off. It is the default value.
- CONNECTOR_TRACE={ON|OFF}
When this setting is ON, connector traces (NGXXJ or JLINK)
are enabled. This trace can also be enabled using the Client Connector
trace option under the Diagnostics menu.
Also, setting TRACE=ON
overrides the CONNECTOR_TRACE setting. When TRACE=ON is set, the
Client Connector trace information is included within the trace
file of the component (for example, WFServlet) that uses the WebFOCUS API
(WFAPI) to make use of the client connector.
- PROCEDURE_LOG={ON|OFF}
When this setting is ON, procedure traces are enabled. You
use the trace panel itself to enable the procedure trace. Doing
so automatically updates this variable. OFF is the default value.
The procedure trace writes the output procedure sent to the WebFOCUS Reporting Server to the
trace file. It contains only the packaged request and is used only
for debugging purposes.
- ENCRYPT_WF_USER={YES|NO}
Setting this variable to YES encrypts
the WebFOCUS user
cookie (WF_USER).
The
WF_USER cookie is not encrypted by default.
