Setting Up Variables for the Taxware Database Location
This section discusses how to:
Set up Taxware on a Microsoft Windows NT or Windows 2000 platform.
Set up Taxware on a UNIX platform.
Taxware provides three INI files that you need to set up to point to the location of the Taxware database directories:
AVPTAX.INI
AVPSTEP.INI
AVPZIP.INI
Place all three files in the WINNT directory. Each file contains a set of pointer variables that you should point to the location where the Taxware database files were placed during Taxware software installation.
Note: Taxware opens the database files in read/write mode, even when only reading from them. You may encounter problems with permissions.
You must set up several
environment variables with the location of the Taxware database files.
Taxware provides a script called ENVARS
that contains
all the variables that need to be defined. In ENVARS
, provide
values for these variables, and then run the ENVARS script when starting
the application server and PeopleSoft Process Scheduler. A typical
place to run the ENVARS
script is in psconfig.sh
.
Note: Taxware opens the database files in read/write mode. Consequently, you may encounter problems with permissions.
