The aclDatabase.xml configuration file

aclDatabase.xml is an encrypted configuration file that stores the connection settings for the Analytics Exchange database.

Changing settings

To change the settings in aclDatabase.xml, you must make the changes in an unencrypted copy of the file and then move the copy to the TomCat\conf sub-folder. When the ACL Analytics Exchange Service is restarted, the new file gets encrypted.

Note

If you update your database settings, you need to update the aclDatabase.xml file on each TomEE application server that connects to the Analytics Exchange database. This includes AX Server, AX Engine Node, and the AX Exception server if AX Exception is part of your implementation and it is installed on a separate server from AX Server.

Change connection settings

  1. Stop the ACL Analytics Exchange Service.
  2. Navigate to the folder where an unencrypted copy of aclDatabase.xml is located and copy the unencrypted file to the TomCat\conf sub-folder where the TomEE application server application server you are updating is installed.
  3. Open the property file in a text editor and make the necessary changes, then save and close the file.

    For information about the settings in this configuration file, see aclDatabase.xml.

  4. Start the ACL Analytics Exchange Service in Windows Services.

    The aclDatabase.xml file is encrypted when the service starts.
