The following table contains a list of the options that you can add to your gateway.conf file.
Option | Description |
---|---|
ACURCL | The IP address or host name of the AcuConnect server to be used
Example: ACURCL 127.0.0.1 |
ACURCL_PORT | The port number of the AcuConnect server to be used
Example: ACURCL_PORT 5632 |
APPEND_LOG_FILE | Determines if logging information is appended to an existing log file (1) or a new logging file is created (0).
The default is 1. Example: APPEND_LOG_FILE 0 |
ATW_000001 |
Improves the loading performance of image files. This option is only applicable to applications run on AIX. The default is True on an AIX platform; False on all other platforms. Example: ATW_000001 True |
AUTHORIZED_ACCESS | When set to 1, the web page prompts for a username and password before trying to connect. These details are verified in the
AcuConnect access file.
Example: AUTHORIZED_ACCESS 1 |
CUSTOMIZE_CSS | The name and file location of a cascading style sheet to be used as a theme when running your application through AcuToWeb.
You may specify more than one CUSTOMIZE_CSS option to have multiple style sheets in effect at one time. See
Cascading Style Sheets for more information.
Example: CUSTOMIZE_CSS FX=../Web/_CSS/examples/ThemeFX.css |
ENABLE_RSA_ENC | Adds additional encryption to obfuscated URLs by encrypting important information such as alias, user, and password. The
encryption is performed before the base64 encoding of the entire URL.
When ENABLE_RSA_ENC is enabled (that is, set to 1), a 2048-bit RSA key (crytRSA.pem) is generated when the gateway is started. You must ensure that this key remains in the AcuToWeb sub-directory of your product installation directory in order to correctly apply the encryption when you click Make URL when the Obfuscate Param option is selected. By default, this option is disabled. Example: ENABLE_RSA_ENC 1 |
FILE_CACHE | The location of cached files, which needs to be a writable directory
Example: FILE_CACHE C:\tmp\Web\cache |
HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT | The interval (in seconds) after which the handshake between the Gateway and AcuConnect will time out. This setting has no
effect on other communications. The default value is 3 (seconds). Increase the value if the Gateway and AcuConnect are on
different machines and/or there are network issues
Example: HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT 3 |
LOG_LEVEL | The level of logging that is carried out. Permissible values are:
To specify more than one level, add the values together. Example: to log protocol info(4) and transmission data(8), specify LOG_LEVEL 12 |
LOGFILE | Name of the log file used to record the level of information specified by LOG_LEVEL.
Example: LOGFILE C:\etc\log\gateway.log |
MAX_PKG_SIZE | The maximum size of packages exchanged between the client and the server (in bytes). Messages bigger than the default will
be split; messages smaller than the default will be sent immediately without waiting for the buffer to be filled (and therefore
this setting would have no effect). The default is 64000 (bytes)
Example: MAX_PKG_SIZE 64000 |
MAX_RECONNECT_ATTEMPTS | The maximum number of attempts made to reconnect. Unlimited if set to null. See
Recovering Dropped Connections for list of related options.
Recommended value: 1 |
MAX_RECONNECT_INTERVAL | The time frame, in milliseconds, in which the reconnection(s) will be attempted. See
Recovering Dropped Connections for list of related options.
Recommended value: 30000 |
PATH_CUSTOM_JS | The name and file location of a Javascript file that can be loaded into the host page of your application. You can use this
file to provide tracking, load other
.js libraries, and call custom created functionality that can alter or monitor specific DOM objects. You can use jQuery as a
framework within this file, because AcuToWeb already makes this available as a library.
Example: PATH_CUSTOM_JS C:\atw\js\customtour.js Tip: If you use url notation to specify the file, you can use an additional parameter, TIMESTAMP, to refresh the browser, after
a specified number of seconds, in order to pick up any updated version of the Javascript file:
url[HOST]:[WEB_PORT]/js/customjs.js?_=[TIMESTAMP] For example:
www.mya2whost.com:1234/js/customjs.js?_=86400 |
PATH_FILL_COMBO | The location of
fillcombo.js: the JavaScript file that is used to populate a drop-down list in the
Alias field of the
Connection Setup screen.
Example: PATH_FILL_COMBO C:\my-acutoweb\fillcombo.js The following excerpt of fillcombo.js adds aliases for the Calculator and Tour applications: [ {"type": "category", "text": "Main Applications"}, {"type": "elem", "text": "Calculator", "value": "calc-alias"}, {"type": "elem", "text": "Tour", "value": "tour-alias"} ] |
PATH_RESOURCES [SRC]: ] | The [SRC] prefix causes the client browser to look for resources in the
%ACUCOBOL%\acutoweb\Web (Windows) or
$ACUCOBOL/acutoweb/Web (UNIX) directory by default. To override the default, you must use Virtual Directory with the
resource virtual folder name in the path of the asset you want to add.
For example, on a Windows machine, if the resources you want to find are my-js1.js and my-js2.js stored in c:\extra-scripts directory, the gateway configuration would have PATH_RESOURCES C:\extra-scripts and modify the COBOL as follows: add("s2", "[SRC]:resources/my-js2.js") Note: PATH_RESOURCES does not support multiple paths.
|
PROBING_CONNECTION | The waiting time, in milliseconds, on the internal PING sent to verify that the connection is active. The default minimum
value is
3000.
The reconnection system is triggered when the waiting time expires. When dealing with systems/networks that have higher latency, you might want to increase the default value. |
PUBLIC_ROOT_DIR | The location of the AcuToWeb website files
Example: PUBLIC_ROOT_DIR .\web |
RECONNECT_DECAY | The rate of increase of the reconnect delay. Allows reconnection attempts to back off when problems persist. See
Recovering Dropped Connections for list of related options.
Recommended value: 1 |
RECONNECT_INTERVAL | The number of milliseconds to delay (after connection has dropped) before attempting to reconnect. See
Recovering Dropped Connections for list of related options.
Recommended value: 1000 |
SSL_KEY_FILE | Specifies the key file to use when SSL is enabled
Example: SSL_KEY_FILE C:\certs\my-web-key.key |
SSL_CRT_FILE | Specifies the certificate file to use when SSL is enabled
Example: SSL_CRT_FILE C:\certs\my-web-cert.crt |
TCP_PORT | The port that the Gateway is listening on, and uniquely identifies the service
Example: TCP_PORT 8009 |
TIMEOUT_ATW_CONN | Inserts a time delay to ensure connection to the AcuToWeb Desktop is established before your application runs. Increase the value of this option if you are having connection problems for applications requiring the AcuToWeb Desktop. The default value is 100 (milliseconds); a suggested value is 450. |
TIMEOUT_INTERVAL | The maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for a connection to succeed before closing and retrying. See
Recovering Dropped Connections for list of related options.
Recommended value: 200000 |
USE_SSL | Enables to use of SSL when connecting through the gateway
Example: USE_SSL 1 |
WEBSERVER_PORT | The port number that receives HTTP requests and routes them to the AcuToWeb Gateway
Example: WEBSERVER_PORT 3000 |
WS_COMPRESSION | Enables or disables WebSocket compression
Example: WS_COMPRESSION 1 |
