Edge Documentation

All configurable server runtime options are stored in [INSTALL_HOME]/server/bin/setenv-custom.*, the extension depending on Windows (.bat) or Linux/Unix (.sh). This file is safe to edit and included in system backups.

Do NOT edit setenv.* as this contains system defaults from Edge and is not included in archives.

Configurable Options

Option	Default	Description
HTTP_ADDRESS	0.0.0.0	Determines what IP address Tomcat will bind to. By default it will bind to all IP addresses on the host, but you can uncomment this option and restrict to a specific IP if necessary.
HTTP_PORT	8080	Determines the port Tomcat will listen on. Please note that to use ports < 1024 Tomcat must be run as an administrator or with JSVC on Unix.
SHUTDOWN_PORT	8005	Used on the localhost only to listen for shutdown commands. If you have multiple Tomcat installations on the same host then each will need a separate shutdown port.
HTTP_SSL	false	To enable HTTPS change this to true, and you possibly want to change HTTP_PORT to 443 to have Tomcat listen on the typical HTTPS port.
KEYSTORE_FILE	conf/ssl.crt/tomcat.crt	Location of the keystore. The default is a self-signed certificate that ships with enPortal/AppBoard.
KEYSTORE_PASS	enportal	Password required to access the keystore.
KEYSTORE_TYPE	JKS	Type for the self-signed certificate enPortal/AppBoard ships with. Other supported types are PKCS11 and PKCS12. Please refer to the public Tomcat SSL instructions for more information about generating your own certificates. Most SSL certificate providers will provide an option in one of the formats listed above.
JAVA_MEMORY_MAX	1536	Sets the Java runtime option -Xmx, the maximum heap size. See Memory_Configuration for more information on tuning memory parameters.
JAVA_MEMORY_INIT	256	Sets the Java runtime option -Xms, the initial heap size. See Memory_Configuration for more information on tuning memory parameters.
JAVA_PERM_SIZE	64	Sets the Java runtime option -XX:PermSize, the portion of the heap reserved for permanent generation (dynamic loading/unloading of classes). See Memory_Configuration for more information on tuning memory parameters.
JAVA_PERM_SIZE_MAX	256	Sets the Java runtime option -XX:MaxPermSize, the maximum portion of the heap to be used for permanent generation. See Memory_Configuration for more information on tuning memory parameters.
JAVA_GC_LOGGING	false	When set to true Java garbage collection information is logged to gc.log in the logs directory. GC information may be useful when analysing system performance and understanding memory issues. This option is available from AppBoard 2.4 and later.
CUSTOM_JAVA_OPTS		Additional custom JVM options can be defined here. By default this is not defined.
JAVA_HOME	n/a	This is not configured in setenv or setenv-custom by default but can be set here to override the system-wide, or user specific environment. NOTE: on Linux/UNIX this is managed by the post_install script.
PIDFILE	n/a	This is used by Tomcat when running as a service on Linux/UNIX systems and by default is automatically determined by the TOMCAT_SERVICE name (managed by post_install) in the form /var/run/<service_name>/<service_name>.pid. Use this runtime option to override the default.
