Editing the jde.ini File

This section discusses how to make modifications to the jde.ini file that is located on a UNIX Enterprise Server.

  1. On the Enterprise Server, navigate to the /ini directory under the new host code directory. The file is typically located in this directory:

    /mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir/ini

  2. Edit the jde.ini file to change the paths in each of the entries below to point to the new host code directory:

    Note: Replace host_code_dir in the entries below with the name of the new host code directory.
    [DEBUG]
    DebugFile=mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir/log/jdedebug.log
    JobFile=mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir/log/jde.log
    JDETSFile=mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir/log/JDETS.log
    
    [INSTALL]
    B9=mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir
    
    [BSFN BUILD]
    BuildArea=mount_point/JDEdwards/host_code_dir/packages
    
  3. Locate the [JDENET] section and find the port settings for serviceNameList and serviceNameConnect. For each entry, add 100 to the number. For example, if the settings are both 6013, change them to 6113.

    [JDENET]
    serviceNameList=6113
    serviceNameConnect=6113
    
  4. In the [JDEIPC] section, add 1000 to the startIPCKeyValue entry. For example:

    [JDEIPC]
    startIPCKeyValue=7000
    
    Note: If the startIPCKeyValue value is commented out, delete the comment mark to enable the setting.
  5. In the [SECURITY] section, either clear security or edit DefaultEnvironment to reference a valid environment that accesses the new service pack.

  6. Replace all references to the production environment (for example, PD920) with a valid environment that will access the new service pack (for example, PY920).
