MicroStrategy ONE

Locating the Configuration Files

If you have configured your application server to deploy exploded WAR files, the sys_defaults and sys_definitions XML configuration files are located in /WEB-INF/xml in the exploded directory. In Tomcat, these exploded directories are located in the webapps/ subdirectory of the Tomcat installation.

  • When deploying MicroStrategy Web (JSP), the exploded directory is named MicroStrategy by default.
  • When deploying MicroStrategy Mobile Server (JSP), the exploded directory is named MicroStrategyMobile by default.

If you have configured your application server to deploy an unexploded WAR file, the configuration files are created in the system's default temporary file directory. For Windows systems, the temporary file directory is usually C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\Temp\[Number]\microstrategy\web-[Version]J\. For example, C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\1\microstrategy\web-10.4.0800.0156J\. For Linux systems, the temporary file directory is usually /tmp/ or /var/tmp/.

  • When deploying MicroStrategy Web (JSP), a /microstrategy/web-Version/ folder is created in the temporary file directory, where Version is the version number for the MicroStrategy Web (JSP) product. Within this folder location, various configuration files can be found within the WEB-INF folder and its subfolders.
  • When deploying MicroStrategy Mobile Server (JSP), a /microstrategy/mobile-Version/ folder is created in the temporary file directory, where Version is the version number for the MicroStrategy Mobile Server (JSP) product. Within this folder location, various configuration files can be found within the WEB-INF folder and its subfolders.
