Troubleshooting the JDE.INI File

This section explains how to troubleshoot problems that can occur with the JDE.INI file. These notes apply to the .INI file in the E920SYS library:

• It is composed of several sections.

  The section names are enclosed in square brackets, for example [JDENET].

• Within each section are one or more keys or settings.

  The key name is on the left side of the equals sign, and the value of the key is on the right side.

• Do not include spaces in the names or values of the keys unless you know that a space is required.

  Do not include spaces immediately before or after the equals sign.

• Keys may be commented out by adding a semicolon (;) at the start of the key name.

• We recommend that you place any incidental comments on a separate line adjacent to the key to which the comment applies.

  Be sure to include a preceding semicolon. Comments can be included at the end of the key's values, but these comments can be wrongly interpreted if they are not separated from the keys' values by enough white space. Because the amount of white space needed between the keys' values and the comments is not strictly defined, we recommend that you do not place comments after the values of the keys.

• The section and key names are not case sensitive.

• Many key values are case sensitive.

• Although all of the following values may be used to turn a feature on, they may not be interchangeable as values in the .INI. Use a value that is comparable to the default value provided in the original .INI. Also, many values are case sensitive. If you have any questions about values, contact JD Edwards Global Support Center.

  • YES

  • ON

  • TRUE

  • 1

Likewise, these values may be used to turn a feature off. They are not necessarily interchangeable as values in the .INI.

• NO

• OFF

• FALSE

• NONE

• 0

If you are told by JD Edwards Worldwide Customer Support Services to modify a key that does not exist, you can add the key. Just be sure that it is in the correct section.
