Default Values for Options

Many file transfer and configuration options now have default values based on the Windows Start Menu Folder file names. This means there are fewer options you need to click on. The mandatory options you need to specify are shown in bold:

The Windows Start Menu Folder (which itself is defaulted from the root directory) is used to default the following values:

• Website Name
• Database Name
• Data Source Name
• LANSA System Name (for the lroute record that will be created to point to the configurations listener)
• User Id and password for VL Web

Default values are provided for these options:

• Database
• Data Source
• IBM i Language Options
• Web Server Details (no longer exists)
• IIS Virtual Folder (if cgi-bin didn't exist in the website)
• LANSA Open Translation Table

You still need to specify the value for the Connection Information to Master, and you need to review the generated User Id for VL Web Configuration.

Note: IBM i Language Options and LANSA Open Translation Table are defaulted to the PC's language.
