This page is for IMF application administrators only. The imf.properties file doesn't need to be modified for individual IMF sites.

The imf.properties file is used to configure the general IMF properties. The file comments are quite descriptive, so you should be able to figure it out from the following listing.

# File: imf.properties
#
# Note: Lines starting with the # symbol are comments. You may have to
#       uncomment some statements to activate them.
#
# Allowed configurers. If you want to restrict where the site configuration
# is allowed to come from, put the IP addresses of the allowed servers in the
# following property, separated by spaces or commas.
#
# configurers = 142.36.44.43,209.126.159.110

#
# SMTP (mail) server host name for use with e-mail tool. Set this to the
# IP address or server name of your SMTP mail host.
#
mail-server = localhost

#
# IMF application URL path. Normally, this is set automatically on
# startup, but the calculated path can be incorrect if your server
# uses URL rewriting or port forwarding. The value should be the 
# part of the URL to where the IMF jsps are, such as imf.jsp. Do not
# put a trailing "/" on the value. Example value below:
#
# imf-path = http://www.moximedia.com/imf

#
# Temporary output directory name and URL path. Set the physical disk 
# location of where your images and PDF files will be created, and the 
# URL prefix that is added to the file name so they can be downloaded
# by the user using the Internet. Note that the IMF processes do not
# delete these files automatically, so you should clean them out
# periodically or develop a scheduled task to do this. Use forward
# slashes for both values, even for Windows directories, and make sure
# that there is a trailing forward slash in both values.
#
image-directory = C:/apps_nt/web-folder/tmp/
image-url-path = http://moximedia.com/tmp/

#
# Connection parameters for database connection. Examples for Oracle and SQL
# Server are shown, but only one can be active. Note that if you use database
# connections, you may have to install JDBC drivers on your IMF server.
# Substitute valid values for server_name and database_name in the examples below.
#

# Oracle example:
# connection-driver = oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
# connection-string = jdbc:oracle:thin:@server_name:1521:database_name
# connection-user = arcims
# connection-password = secret

# SQL Server example:
# connection-driver = com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
# connection-string = jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://server_name:4193;DatabaseName=database_name
# connection-user = arcims
# connection-password = secret

#
# Location extent table definition, if used. The location extent table
# is used by many of the find-location routines.
#
location-extents-table = ARCIMS.LOCATION_EXTENTS
location-extents-column-type = LOCATION_TYPE
location-extents-column-identifier = IDENTIFIER
location-extents-column-minx = MIN_X
location-extents-column-miny = MIN_Y
location-extents-column-maxx = MAX_X
location-extents-column-maxy = MAX_Y

#
# Place name table definition. The place name table is used
# by the Zoom to Place Name find-location routine.
#
place-name-table = ARCIMS.PLACE_NAME
place-name-column-identifier = PLACE_NAME
place-name-column-x = X
place-name-column-y = Y

#
# SAX parser class name. The parser below is recommended
# and included with IMF. You are advised not to change the
# value listed below.
