[/xxx] Section


This section of the file, such as [/callcenter_enu], contains connection strings for each Siebel application, as well as the parameters WebPublicRootDir and SiebEntSecToken. Each connection string is preceded by a bracketed heading resembling the following:

[/xxx]

where xxx is the virtual directory name of the Siebel application that you want to edit, such as callcenter_jpn for Siebel Call Center for Japanese.

ConnectString

This parameter specifies a language-specific connection string for each Application Object Manager. The connection string contains information that was specified during initial configuration. The format for the connection string is as follows:

ConnectString = siebel.transport.encryption.compression:\\server:server_port\enterprise\AppObjMgr

where:

  • transport is the networking transport protocol.
  • encryption is the encryption type. Make sure that the ConnectString parameter value includes the same encryption type that is specified using the Encryption Type parameter. For more information about this parameter, see Siebel Server Parameters. For more information about encryption, see Siebel Security Guide.
  • compression is the data compression method. Make sure that the ConnectString parameter value includes the same compression method that is specified using the Compression Type parameter. For more information about this parameter, see Siebel Server Parameters.
  • server is the IP address or hostname of the Siebel Server (or in the load-balanced case, the virtual IP address).
  • server_port is the port number on which the Siebel Connection Broker component (alias SCBroker) runs (or in the load-balanced case, the virtual port number). By default, this port number is 2321.
  • enterprise is the Siebel Enterprise Server name.
  • AppObjMgr is the relevant Application Object Manager.

For example:

ConnectString = siebel.TCPIP.none.NONE:\\siebel1:2321\Siebel\eEventsObjMgr\

StartCommand

This parameter specifies the assumed command if your session starts and a command (query) is not explicitly specified in the URL. For example, for Siebel eService for French, the StartCommand value is SWECmd=GotoView&SWEView=Home+Page+View+(eService_fra). When you first bring up the Siebel eService application in a new browser, the first query is a GotoView to your home page view. Normally, you do not have to modify the StartCommand parameter specified in the eapps.cfg file.

WebPublicRootDir

This parameter specifies the location for Web image caching, whose default location is

SWSE_ROOT\PUBLIC\language (Windows)

SWSE_ROOT/PUBLIC/language (UNIX)

NOTE:  This parameter must be set in the application-specific section of the eapps.cfg file.

SiebEntSecToken

This parameter specifies the Siebel Enterprise security token, which is used by the Siebel Administrator to refresh application images from the Siebel Server on the Web server without restarting. For more information about the Siebel Enterprise security token, see Siebel Security Guide and the Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using.
