Setting the Siebel Analytics Web Configuration File Path

You can override the path that Siebel Analytics Web searches for configuration files upon startup. The internal default location is $(DataDir)\Web\Config, where $(DataDir) is the resolved entry of one of the following specifications:

• In Windows:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Siebel Systems, Inc.\Siebel Analytics\Common\7.7\DataDir

• In UNIX, this is configured by an environment variable defined in initialization scripts. For more information, see Siebel Analytics Installation and Configuration Guide.

Siebel Analytics Web must have read permission to this path. The default data directory is SiebelAnalyticsData.

You can override the internal default by adding the following entry to the Windows registry or the Siebel Analytics Web configuration file instanceconfig.xml.

• Windows registry example:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Siebel Systems, Inc.\Siebel Analytics\Web

  ConfigDir     SiebelAnalyticsTest

• instanceconfig.xml example:

  <ConfigDir>SiebelAnalyticsTest</ConfigDir>

For information about working in the Windows registry or the configuration file instanceconfig.xml, see Making Siebel Analytics Web Configuration Changes.
