Security
These settings allow you to specify some important settings affecting application security.
| Setting | Description | ||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Staging |
Default configuration of the staging environment. This setting also affects other configuration groups.
| ||||||||||
|
Invalid session response delay |
Time in seconds that a client sided request with false session data is blocked. This setting prevents possible "Brute force" access attempts. | ||||||||||
|
Permit login without cookies |
The application uses session cookies to secure client-server communication. Set this setting to allow user login without cookies. This would be the case, for example, if cookies were forbidden in a company network.
| ||||||||||
|
Close browser window after logout |
Specifies whether the browser window is closed after logging out. If this setting is enabled, the application tries to close the user's browser window after logging out. This function is not supported by every browser or only when the browser prompts. |
Debugging
Here you will find useful settings for debugging. Normally, you cannot configure anything here.
| Setting | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
|
Log mode |
The amount of data to be logged.
| ||
|
Enable documentation mode |
Specifies whether additional data is displayed in the application interface, for example, the name of the active form. The effect depends on the visualization selected.
| ||
|
Enable SQL log |
Specifies whether the all database instructions are logged. The log is written in the SQL log directory.
| ||
|
Show ASP.Net error messages |
Specifies whether ASP.Net's own error messages are shown.
| ||
|
Enable test mode |
Specifies whether automatic tests are supported.

Performance
The settings that influence an application's performance are specified here.
| Setting | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|
|
Load balancing |
Mode for the integrated load balancing. In most cases, "DistributeEqually" is chosen. | ||
|
Maximum workload |
Maximum number of user sessions an application accepts. The application can be installed multiple times if a large number of sessions is required because system resources for each application process are limited. | ||
|
Force maximum workload |
The value in Maximum workload is overridden is this setting is not set. But it is used as a threshold for the load balancing mode "DistributeSuccessively". | ||
|
Compress HTTP transfer |
Specifies whether usage of compression for HTTP communication is set.
| ||
|
Host segmentation |
Specifies host segmentation. This setting allows distribution of client sided requests to several server addresses representing aliases for the web front-end. This bypasses some of the browser limitation and can therefore shorten loading time if the network connection is bad. |

File Download
In order to download large files, the application requires a directory from where the download is available to the user. This effects reports, for example, which are generated by the application and saved as PDF by the user.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
|
Enable file download |
Specifies whether file download is enabled. Enable this setting to allow larger files, such as reports, to be downloaded. If file download is not set, certain functions are not available. |
|
Download directory |
Directory for the application to use to make download available. The application requires full access rights to this directory. |
|
Cleanup interval |
Time in minutes search for and remove redundant files. |
|
Supply time |
Time in minutes before download is available to the user. Once a download has been initiated, the application cannot verify when and if the download was executed by the user so that the download must be aborted after a set time interval. |
