Altering application settings

The web.config file contains a number of settings which change the behavior of the application in a system-wide context (affects all users).

The config file is located in installation root directory, which by default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Plass Data\DVI System International MVC" (verion 5.0.1.2) and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Plass Data\DVI System International" (version 5.0.1.1 and below).

I addition to the Security and password rules setup settings, it's possible to alter these settings.

• OnStartLoadDashboardName
  This feature is intended for further development and currently fixed to "MainDash".
• OnStartDefaultToSilverlight
  The Silverlight client is the main application for entering form data and file management. I You prefer to start directly in the Silverlight client, rather than the Dashboard, set this setting to "True".
• EnableBrowserCloseWarning
  By setting this option to "True" the browser will display a warning if the user attempts to close the browser when working in the data entry Silverlight client. This warning can prevent the loss of data when entering form data.
  
  

Note:

The Web.config file might be write protected in the installation folder and cannot be edited directly. Copy the web.config to another location e.g. "c:\temp", edit the file and copy it back in the installation folder overwriting the old config file.

When the config file is altered in the installation folder, the webserver "reset"  the website, which will disconnect any user connected to the system.
