- Configuration -
Level : Basic
Once you've installed jChatBox you could run it without any additional configuration. The default configuration will be loaded from $JCHATBOX_HOME/WEB-INF/conf folder. All logs and backup file will be stored in this folder too.
Level : Advanced
However, for production you might want to modify the default configuration. To do so you have to setup three parameters only before launching jChatBox : LOGFOLDER (path for auto-created log files), BACKUPFILE (file where chatrooms are stored) and configfile (path to jchatbox.xml file). 1 - LOGFOLDER : Edit jchatbox.xml from conf folder. In the LOGFOLDER tag, modify : AUTOCONF value with your absolute path to logs folder (e.g. d:/production/jchatbox/logs). DO NOT add "/" or "\" at the end ! Note1 : jChatBox translates AUTOCONF value by $JCHATBOX_HOME/WEB-INF/conf folder. Note2 : Use "/" as separator under Win32, Unix or Linux. Use ":" as separator under Mac. 2 - BACKUPFILE : Edit jchatbox.xml from conf folder. In the BACKUPFILE tag, modify : AUTOCONF value with your absolute path to backup file (e.g. d:/production/jchatbox/backup.ser). Note1 : jChatBox translates AUTOCONF value by $JCHATBOX_HOME/WEB-INF/conf folder. Note2 : This file will be created automatically when SYSTEM user click on "Backup chatrooms" from administration GUI. Backup is also done when servlet engine stops. 3 - configfile : Edit web.xml from in $JCHATBOX_HOME/WEB-INF folder and modify AUTOCONF value (in configfile init parameter) with the absolute path to jchatbox.xml file : e.g. : <init-param> <param-name>configfile</param-name> <param-value>d:/production/jchatbox/conf/jchatbox.xml</param-value> </init-param> Note1 : jChatBox translates AUTOCONF value by $JCHATBOX_HOME/WEB-INF/conf/jchatbox.xml. Note2 : Use "/" as separator under Win32, Unix or Linux. Use ":" as separator under Mac. configfile parameter is the most important. If it's wrong, jChatBox won't start correctly.
