SuperOffice.ini
[SuperOffice]
The configuration file for SuperOffice has several parameters that describe the program’s database environment. From CRM 7 a SuperOffice.config file is also required since NetServer is windows client.
All connections between a database/archive and the program are governed by this configuration file.
SUPEROFFICE.INI is created on installation and does not normally need to be changed, but there are cases where it may be useful to change some of the parameters in it.
There are three types of parameter, and they are described below.
Description of the Central Database and Archive
The following parameters in SUPEROFFICE.INI describe the central database and the archive:
|
Parameter |
Explanation |
|
archivepath= |
Defines where documents in S&M will be saved. Documents may be read from the other archivepaths, but save in default only performed to archivepath= by the SODocPluginSoArc |
|
archivepath2= |
Alternative document folder. Not needed but may be useful if travel/satellite have access to the central SO_arc folder as well |
|
Local_ArchivePath= |
Defines where documents in Sales & Marketing will be stored when user is on travel. |
|
Datapath= |
Defines the location of the database. |
|
Local_DataPath= |
Defines the location of the local database when on travel. Not needed if build-in database is used. |
|
GlobalPrefix= |
If you use another prefix than the default CRM7. |
|
GlobalTravelPrefix= |
If this is set, all clients that will either do local updates or generate protoype must have this prefix set. |
|
CRMCaption= |
You may set your own caption so it's easier to separate which version you're logged in to if you are running several installations on your computer. |
|
SOCachePath= |
From SIX SR3. |
|
templatepath= |
Defines where the templates are located. |
|
EnableHdbCache= |
Setting it to 0 means SuperOffice does not cache writes |
|
LocalDbEngineParam= |
From 6.2: |
The only parameter that must be specified is archivepath and datapath.
If the other parameters do not exist, they are given values that are determined by archivepath
|
templatepath= |
"archivepath"\TEMPLATE |
Note: You can add further archive paths, e.g. archivepath2, archivepath3, and so on. The same goes for local_archivepath2, local_archivepath3.
Using the Datapath Parameter
Datapath for SQL
An ODBC data source must be defined, and datapath must begin with ODBC:, followed by the Data Source Name. Note that you must enter ODBC in uppercase. If you have not already defined a Data Source Name for the database, use the name SuperOffice.
[Error]
Defining More Comprehensive Error Logging
If required, you can define that error logging will be more comprehensive than that specified by the default setup.
|
Parameter |
Explanation |
|
EnableDebug=0/1 |
Turn debug logging off/on |
|
Truncate=0/1 |
Allow log file to keep growing beyond 20K. |
|
LogPath= |
Where log is saved. Defaults to SO_ARC\DATA |
|
OLEDBLogFile= |
Where log is saved from reporter components. Defaults to LogPath. |
|
EnableReporterLog=0/1 |
Starts logging from reporter components. |
|
EnableOLEDBLog=0 to 5 |
Determines what level of detail the OLE-DB provider |
|
New from 6.2 |
|
|
EnableRibbonLog=0/1 |
Enable debug logging from Ribbons off/on |
|
EnableSoArcLog=0/1 |
Enable debug logging from SO_Arc document plugin off/on |
For example:
[Error]
EnableDebug=1 (enable comprehensive error logging)
Truncate=0 (do not truncate the log once it reaches the default maximum size– 128KB)
Logpath=C:\SO_ERROR.LOG (where the log file is saved, if not set it defaults to \so_arc\data\so_log.txt)
OLEDBLogFile=c:\so_arc\oledb.log (if not set, will use the same as logpath)
EnableReporterLog=1
EnableOLEDBLog=1 (you may set a value between 1 and 5, 3 is recommended)
If you enable the comprehensive error logging function, you must remember to disable it afterwards, or the hard disk will fill up.
To disable it, enter the following:
[Error]
EnableDebug=0
[Client]
