Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Application Server:
Administration

Environment variable settings

Environment variables required by an AppServer are set during either AppServer installation or startup. You can modify these initial settings in the registry in Windows or in the shell scripts installed with OpenEdge on UNIX. You can also override most of these settings for an AppServer or NameServer using the Progress Explorer. For more information, see the "Configuring AppServer components" section.

For more information on setting the standard OpenEdge environment variables, see the chapters on setting up the environment and configuring OpenEdge Unified Broker products in OpenEdge Getting Started: Installation and Configuration .

Working directory settings

The working directory settings for AppServer and NameServer each specify the directory in which the specified product starts up and, by default, where its log files and any other files output by AppServer applications are written. As with other settings, you can change or override the default settings for the working directory. You can also individually specify the locations of AppServer and NameServer log files. For more information, see the "Configuring AppServer components" section.
