Configuring the server deployment settings
Configure your server deployment settings before running the server deployment script. These settings consist of important information like software installation paths and key information about your WebSphere Commerce server.
About this task
General rules that apply to the configuration
of the settings files:
- Paths in batch files should use the backward slash '\' as the file separator
- Paths in shell scripts should use the forward slash '/' as the file separator.
- Paths in properties files should use the forward slash '/' as the file separator, even for Windows systems.
- Classpaths in batch files should use semicolons ';' as entry separators.
- Classpaths in shell scripts should use colons ':' as entry separators.
Tip: To save time when configuring a new server deployment package,
you can provide the following assets, and include them in WCBD_installdir/deploy/server on
the build system:
- a fully or partially pre-configured, static Web assets deployment Ant script
- a WebSphere Commerce configuration file synchronization Ant script
- target-specific properties files
These assets are included in the server deployment package, thereby reducing the amount of configuration required.
