- Expand the war, edit/create the /WEB-INF/config.properties re-zip the war. This is essentially the same as editing the web.xml directly.
- Create the file in the current working directory of the container you are using. will pick it up by default. For example, <frevvo-home>/tomcat is the current working directory for the tomcat container.
Place the config.properties somewhere in the file system (outside the frevvo.war) and then add -Dfrevvo.config=file:Drive:/path to config.properties in the java executable call. For example, add it to <frevvo-home>\tomcat\bin\setenv.bat, setenv.sh or service.bat if you are using the tomcat container. Here is an example of the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\bin\setenv.bat file with the added parameter:

The value of frevvo.config can be a full path (e.g. Drive:/pathtomyconfig.properties), a path in the war (e.g. /WEB-INF/myconfig.properties) or a url (e.g. http://config/cluster1/myconfig.properties). Be sure to include the config.properties file name in the path statement.

External URLs
Sometimes running behind running behind a proxy server can cause unintended changes to the form server's external URLs. The following configuration parameters address this issue. These parameters can be added to frevvo war settings section of the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml file.
frevvo.forms.server.external.url - If set, all share dialogs for forms and flows will use this as the external URL.
frevvo.internal.baseurl - If set, all URLs used internally by the form server will use this base url.Use the syntax shown in the example. change the <myexternalhost>and <port> to your external server name and the port that you are using for on this server.
Code Block <Parameter name="frevvo.forms.server.external.url" value="http://<myexternalhost>:<port>" override="false"/>
frevvo.internal.baseurl - If set, all URLs used internally by the form server will use this base url. This may be needed when using frevvo.forms.server.external.url if that external url is not also accessible from the form server machine. Use the syntax shown in the example.
change the value "http://localhost:8082" to the server name and port of your server.
Code Block <Parameter name="frevvo.internal.baseurl

Default Port
By default the tomcat bundle is configured to bind to port 8082. You can change the port by:

If you plan to run the Tomcat bundle on IBM J9 JVM and you want to have the HTTPS connector enabled, you will need to change the encryption algorithm to IBM's X509 from the default Sun Oracle X509 implementation. |
To run HTTPS on IBM J9 JVM, add algorithm="IbmX509" attribute to the HTTPS connector:

Java 7 will throw a "SEVERE: java.net.SocketException: Invalid argument: no further information" error in the <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs/catalina.YYYY-MM-DD.log when used on a Windows 2003 system with Tomcat version 7.0.29 or earlier and the NIO http connector. If you should encounter this error, check the version of Tomcat. If it is below 7.0.30, upgrade to that version. Run the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\version.bat (Windows) or <frevvo-home>/tomcat/version.sh (UNIX) files to determine the version of Tomcat installed on your system. |
...
Tomcat Logfiles
By default, the server writes useful logging information to a daily logging file located here: <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs/frevvo.log. You will see the logfiles listed below in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs. The current date appends to the logfile name for all the files except the frevvo log:
...

<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="${catalina.base}/logs" prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt" pattern="%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b "%{Referer}r" "%{User-Agent}r" [%I %{JSESSIONID}c]" /> |

- host-manager.MM-DD-YYYY.log - this logfile is part of the tomcat distribution and is empty by default. It is a log file for the host-manager web application that is used to manage virtual hosts in tomcat. The host manager web-app is typically not needed because is preconfigured. Messages are written to this log only if the host-manager web application is being used.
- manager.MM-DD.YYYY.log - this logfile is part of the tomcat distribution and is empty by default - this is the log file for the tomcat manager web application which is used to check the status of web apps, memory usage etc. Messages are written to this log only if the manager web app is being used.

There will be three additional logfiles when running Tomcat as a Windows service:

...
The logging levels used by can be fine-tuned by editing the <frevvo -home>/tomcat/lib/logback.xml file. By default log level is set to INFO. The logging infrastructure will scan this file every 60 secs so you can live-change the log level. Here
is more configuration information . Stop to delete the logfiles. They will be recreated on start up.
...
The tomcat bundle install will automatically rotate log files daily. The logfile is the only one affected. Let's say the current date is 6 - 19 - 2013. The current days logging is saved to the frevvo.log file located in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs. On the next day, 6 - 20 - 2013, the log from the previous day is copied to a logfile stamped with the previous day's date. (frevvo_2013-06-19). This date stamped frevvo.log is moved into located in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\logs\old directory. Logging for 6 - 20 - 2013 is saved in the frevvo.log in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs.

The default server session timeout can be overridden for each tenant. See the Edit Tenant topic for more information.

The following screen displays when a user tries to submit a form from a timed out session.
Editing Submissions
Designer users can view/edit submissions by clicking the edit link on the submissions panel. Non designer users can view/edit submissions by clicking on the Shared Items tab if they have been granted permission to do so by the designer via the Access Control feature. The frevvo.submission.edit .link parameter must be set to the default value of true, for the edit link to be visible to any user. To disable the edit link on the submission panel, change the default value of true to false for the frevvo.submissions.edit.link configuration parameter in <frevvo-home>/WEB-INF/web.xml file. The web.xml file must be unzipped from the frevvo.war before it can be edited. Follow the instructions above to unzip, modify and rezip the war file.
Code Block |
---|
<context-param> <param-name>frevvo.submission.edit.link</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> <description>Show a link to edit the submission.</description> </context-param> |
You can add the frevvo.submission.edit.link configuration property to the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml file instead of the web.xml file as discussed above. Here is an example that will disable submission editing when added to the frevvo war settings section of frevvo.xml:
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.submission.edit.link" value="false" override="false"/> |
When the frevvo.submission.edit.link parameter has a value of false, the edit link is not visible on on form submission panels.
Hardware Requirements
The minimum recommended hardware configuration for your Live Forms server is:
...
- Login as the user in the new tenant.
- Verify that the submissions are properly being loaded for all forms. In the submissions repository page make sure to adjust the initial and end dates to a window of time that you know have submissions for that specific form.
- Update references to the forms. After going trough the steps above, the URL to the forms owned by the user will be different than what they were originally. You need to update all references to the forms in published links and pages where the form should be embedded.
Show/Hide Tenant Login
is a multi-tenant application. See the administration section on Manage Tenants. However, it is possible that all you need is a single tenant. If this is your case it simplifies server login if you hide the tenant input on the login page.
This can be changed by editing <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\frevvo\WEB-INF\web.xml. Uncomment the frevvo.default.login.tenent.id parameter and set the param-value to the name of your one tenant. Next set the param-value of frevvo.login.show.tenant to false.
Here is how the parameters appear after editing:
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.default.login.tenant.id</param-name>
<param-value>ssotest</param-value>
<description>Default Tenant</description>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.login.show.tenant</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
<description>Show Tenant Box on Login Page</description>
</context-param> |
Restart your server and the next time you login you will only need to enter your username and password.
Note |
---|
These two config parameters can also be overridden in <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml. This keeps all your modified parameters in one place and makes it easy to upgrade to newer releases. |
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.default.login.tenant.id" value="your_ldap_tenant_id" override="false"/> |
Note |

If you need to login as the ' server superuser admin you must login with username admin@d. |
- the user will be different than what they were originally. You need to update all references to the forms in published links and pages where the form should be embedded.
