Global properties
Key point: The server configuration file that controls the core aspect of PageSeeder.

The global properties apply to the entire PageSeeder server – only administrators can edit them.

These values, stored in global.properties, can be found in the webapp/WEB-INF/config folder.

You cannot edit these values using the user interface (bar a few exceptions) – you need to access the server file system to edit this file. On Linux, PageSeeder is usually installed under /opt/pageseeder and on Windows, under c:\pageseeder\default.

Changes in the global properties only take effect after a server restart or if an administrator clicks the reload button on the server properties page.

Role override

These properties affect the default functionality assigned to a role, they are optional.

Notes

  • Wherever multiple values occur, the values are separated by commas. Spaces are not permitted before or after the comma.
  • For properties that expect boolean flags, the allowable values are: true or false.
  • The default values are provided for convenience only; look at the global.properties on your PageSeeder installation.
