Siebel Web Client Startup Options
The application shortcuts described in Siebel Web Client Shortcuts run an executable program called siebel.exe, followed by various startup options. For example, the shortcut for Siebel Call Center - ENU might be defined as shown in the following example (depending on your installation location). For this example, the only option used is /c , to specify the configuration file. "C:\Siebel\Client\BIN\siebel.exe" /c CFG_FILE_PATH \uagent.cfg
You can also create demo application shortcuts that specify the sample database and user and password information. For this example, you might define a shortcut like Siebel Call Center Demo - ENU as shown in the following: "C:\Siebel\Client\BIN\siebel.exe" /c CFG_FILE_PATH \uagent.cfg /d sample /u CCHENG /p CCHENG
In the preceding examples, CFG_FILE_PATH represents the full path to the configuration file. This file is located in BIN\ LANGUAGE in the SIEBEL_CLIENT_ROOT directory. In this path, LANGUAGE is a language code, such as ENU for U.S. English. For example, the target definition for the Siebel Call Center - ENU shortcut might resemble the following example: "C:\Siebel\Client\BIN\siebel.exe" /c "C:\Siebel\Client\bin\ENU\uagent.cfg"
The siebel.exe program can also be run from a DOS command window. In this case, the startup options would be entered directly on the command line. For information about creating custom shortcuts, see Creating Custom Siebel Application Shortcuts. This topic is part of Siebel Web Client Shortcuts and Startup Options. The available startup options are described in Table 31.
Table 31. Siebel Web Client Startup Options
|
|
/c config_file
|
Required. Specifies the path and file name for the configuration file to use, such as siebel.cfg for Siebel Sales or uagent.cfg for Siebel Call Center. |
/d data_source
|
Specifies the data source to connect to, as defined in the configuration file. The demo application shortcuts specify /d sample to access the sample database:
- If you do not use
/u and /p to specify a valid Siebel user and do not use /d to specify a valid data source, then you can specify the data source from the login screen.
- If you use
/u and /p but do not use /d , then the local database is assumed.
|
/l language
|
Specifies the three-letter code for the language to use for this Siebel Web Client session, such as ENU for U.S. English. The applicable Siebel language pack must have been installed for the Siebel Web Client. If you do not use /l to specify a valid language, then the language is obtained from the configuration file. |
/u username
|
Specifies the user name. The demo application shortcuts specify predefined demo users using /u and /p options. If you do not use /u and /p to specify a valid Siebel user, then you must log in from a login screen. For lists of demo users provided with the sample database, by Siebel application, see Siebel Demo Users Reference. CAUTION: Consider the security issues when using /u and /p options (in particular /p ) to access a live, production system. These values are not encrypted.
|
/p password
|
Specifies the password for the user specified using /u . |
/b browser_exe
|
Specifies the path and file name for the browser executable program to use for the Siebel Web Client session. The /b option is used to override the default browser in Microsoft Windows. For more information about the supported browsers for Siebel CRM, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support. |
/s spool_file
|
Specifies spooling SQL to a specified output file. This option can be useful for troubleshooting purposes. For more information, see Siebel Performance Tuning Guide. |
