LANSA Communication Set Up

4.1.1 Using lansa.ini to Change Default File Locations

If you need to change any of the default file locations or other parameters, e.g. maximum log file size, you need to edit {lansa_root}/lansa.ini with a text editor.

For example, if you install LANSA for Linux to the directory /lansa, the file /lansa/lansa.ini will be created with the following content:

[Communications]
LicenceTable=/lansa/x_lansa/x_lickey.dat
ProcInfoFile=/lansa/lcoproc.ini
RouteTable=/lansa/lroute.dat
TraceFile=/lansa/log/lroute.trc
LogFile=/lansa/log/lroute.log
;TraceMaximum=65536
;LogMaximum=65536
;LogStateCheck=N
 

The file lists all the file locations and other parameters that you may customize.

Lines starting with a semicolon are remarks and so the semicolons can be used handily as a way to disable/enable a parameter. In the example, for instance, default value for TraceMaximum will be used as the line is remarked out.
