Launching Configuration Manager

You can start PeopleSoft Configuration Manager by one of two methods:

• Double-click the Configuration Manager shortcut in your PeopleSoft program group.

• At a command prompt, enter:

  PS_HOME\bin\client\winx86\pscfg.exe

Important:

Due to changes in the registry structure beginning with PeopleTools 8.50, if you intend to run PeopleTools 8.50 and later versions of Configuration Manager and previous versions of Configuration Manager (PeopleTools 8.49, 8.48, and so on), on the same development workstation, pre-PeopleTools 8.50 values stored in the registry will be deleted.

Important:

Certain PeopleSoft utilities require setting an environment variable, PS_SERVER_CFG, to run properly. However, PeopleSoft Configuration Manager isn't compatible with PS_SERVER_CFG being set. Before you start Configuration Manager, you must ensure that PS_SERVER_CFG is not set. You can make this convenient by using a DOS batch file to unset PS_SERVER_CFG, launch Configuration Manager, then after you exit Configuration Manager, reset PS_SERVER_CFG to its previous value.
