Profile
Installation and Configuration

Introduction

The profile service makes it possible to save settings for any client, such as the number of hits and the client language. For instance, let’s say you would like ten hits per search instead of five and you want the client to be displayed in English. Now when you pull up the client, these settings are automatically applied and used accordingly.

Preparation

Create database

A database must exist for a profile in order for you to be able to use it. This database might already exist in your system. This is the case when notifications have been configured.

Tip: This is how you create a database:

create database notifications;
CREATE USER user WITH PASSWORD 'password';
grant all privileges on database "notifications" to user;

Configuration

The setting for this can be found in the Configurator under "Client Services". If you have already entered these settings, you can skip this chapter.

Resource persistence settings

Settings:

Enable: Enables persisted resources − default: false

User Administrator Users: Specifies the user administrators
User administrators can administer all users (delete, edit [e.g. edit an e-mail address] and add). Each user is entered on a new line.

JDBC URL: Specifies the database URL

Max Number of Database Connections: Maximum number of database connections. Default value: 10, minimum value: 2.

User: Specifies the user for the database.

Password: Specifies the password for the database.

Database Table Prefix: Specifies the table prefix in the database

Activation

To activate this component just activate the checkbox in Client-Service – “Userprofile”

User interface

The profile settings are found on the client under "Settings" in the upper right menu.

Choose your preferred settings from the drop-down menus and save them with "Save".

The changes take effect as soon as the client is opened again.
