Configure Properties Files in WAR Files - Tomcat

Volt MX Foundry identity console setup requires configuring properties files in the authService.war files. For more details, refer to VoltMX Foundry Topology and Components.

Important:  The field names in the properties files of the following .WAR files are the same for all app servers. You must configure the values in the fields based on your app servers.

authService.war

To configure properties files in the authService.war file, follow these steps:

  1. In the authService.war`/WEB-INF/classes`, open the authService.properties file, and then edit the following parameters.

    Database parameters

    RDS_DB_TYPE=<Database Type>  
    RDS_HOSTNAME=<Dataserver IP/Hostname>  
    RDS_PORT=<Database port>  
    AUTH_GLOBAL_DBNAME=<VoltMX identity service global database name>  
    AUTH_CONFIG_DBNAME=<VoltMX identity service configuration database name>  
    MAX_ACTIVE_DBC=20  
    AUTH_GLOBAL_DB_MAX_ACTIVE_DBC=5  

    #General auth parameters  

    APPSERVER\_TYPE=<Application server type>  
    LOG\_LEVEL=INFO  
    LOG\_OPTION=logfile  
    LOG\_LOCATION=<USER\_INSTALL\_DIR>/logs

    Important: Enter the appropriate path for LOG_LOCATION=.
    For example:
    - For Windows:
    - For Linux:
