CACHE_CONTROL | Specifies how a web browser caches information using one of the following values: ![]() If multiple users access from the same machine, they can view the same cached data. Setting CACHE_CONTROL to NO‑CACHE prevents different users viewing data cached by the browser. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Caching information reduces the number of server requests that the browser must make and the frequency of expired page messages. Caching increases security risks because of the availability of information in the cache. For additional information about cache control, see the HTTP/1.1 specifications. |
CACHE_CONTROL | Specifies how a web browser caches information using one of the following values: ![]() If multiple users access Information Console from the same machine, they can view the same cached data. Setting CACHE_CONTROL to NO‑CACHE prevents different users viewing data cached by the browser. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() Caching information reduces the number of server requests that the browser must make and the frequency of expired page messages. Caching increases security risks because of the availability of information in the cache. For additional information about cache control, see the HTTP/1.1 specifications. | |
CONNECTION_TIMEOUT | Controls how many seconds Information Console waits for a request to complete before dropping the connection to the application server or BIRT iHub. Set this value to limit wait times. The default value is 0, meaning the connection is never dropped. |
COOKIE_DOMAIN | Specifies the host name of the server setting the cookie. The cookie is only sent to hosts in the specified domain of that host. The value must be the same domain the client accesses. Information Console automatically sets this parameter. For example, if the client accesses http://www.actuate.com/iportal/login.do, the domain name is actuate.com. |
COOKIE_ENABLED | Indicates whether to use cookies to store information between user logins. The default value is True. If False, Information Console does not use cookies. Without cookies, many Information Console features are unavailable or do not persist across sessions. For example, without cookies, user name, language, and time zone settings always use their default values when a new browser session begins. |
COOKIE_HTTPONLY | Sets the HTTPonly property of cookie stored by Information Console. In supported browsers, this property prevents third-party scripts from accessing cookies generated by Information Console. The default value is true, which enables the HTTPOnly flag. |
COOKIE_SECURE | Indicates whether to access and write cookies securely. If true, cookies are only written if a secure connection, such as HTTPS, is established. The default value is false, which enables cookies for all connection types. |
DATAFIELDS_DISPLAY_ORDER | Specifies display order of Fields and Folders. Default value is "ascending". Valid values are: "ascending", "descending", "none". |
DEFAULT_LOCALE | Specifies the default locale. Information Console sets this parameter value during installation. The locale map is <context root>\WEB‑INF\localemap.xml. |
DEFAULT_PAGE_BREAK_INTERVAL | Specifies the number of rows to display in one page when viewing a report. If set to 0, there are no page breaks. |
DEFAULT_TIMEZONE | Specifies the default time zone. Information Console sets this parameter value during installation. The time zone map is <context root>\WEB-INF\TimeZones.xml. |
ENABLE_CLIENT_SIDE_REDIRECT | Specifies whether URL redirection is done on the client side or the server side. Set the value to True for client side redirection. The default value is False. For more information about URL redirection, see Using proxy servers with Information Console. |
ENABLE_DEBUG_LOGGING | Indicates whether to record debugging messages in a log file called Debug.log. Set the value to True to enable debug messages in the log file. The default value is False. |
ENABLE_ERROR_LOGGING | Indicates whether to log errors. This parameter’s default value is True, which enables error logging. If you set this parameter to True, Information Console creates two error log files: ![]() ![]() |
ENABLE_JUL_LOG | Indicates whether to log Information Console activity. This parameter’s default value is TRUE, which enables logging. If you set this parameter to TRUE, Information Console creates log files named reportService.<Service number>.<System name>.<Information Console start up time stamp>.<File number>.log. |
ERROR_LOG_FILE_ROLLOVER | Specifies the time period to wait before starting a new log file. Options are Daily, Monthly, Weekly, and Yearly. The default value is Monthly. |
EXECUTE_DASHBOARD_GADGET_GENERATION_WAIT_TIME | Specifies the time to wait, in seconds, for a gadget to generate when running a dashboard design file. This parameter’s default value is 2 seconds. |
EXECUTE_REPORT_WAIT_TIME | Specifies the time to wait, in seconds, for a report to execute. This parameter’s default value is 20 seconds. For more information about the wait time parameter, see Integrating Applications into BIRT iHub. |
FORCED_GC_INTERVAL | Indicates the length in seconds of the interval that the Information Console application waits between forced garbage collections. To disable garbage collection, set this parameter to 0, the default value. Use this parameter to tune application server performance. 600 seconds is the recommended value. If the value is too low, the application server performs garbage collection too frequently, slowing the system. If the value is too high, you waste memory. If disabled, the application server controls garbage collection. |
GADGET_GENERATION_WAITING_TIME | Specifies the time to wait, in seconds, for an individual gadget to generate. This parameter’s default value is 10 seconds. |
IDAPI_TIMEOUT | Specifies the number of seconds to wait for a SOAP message response. This value must be larger than the maximum time necessary to run a report design or Information Console generates a time-out error for some reports. Its default value is 7200. |
INSTALL_MODE | Indicates whether Information Console is installed with iHub. The value is set when Information Console is installed. Do not change this setting. |
JUL_LOG_CONSOLE_LEVEL | The level of Information Console activity to log to the console. Valid values are OFF, SEVERE, WARNING, INFO, CONFIG, FINE, FINER, FINEST, in order of the number of messages to log. The default value is OFF. |
JUL_LOG_FILE_COUNT | Specifies the number of log files for a particular time stamp, if the value of ENABLE_JUL_LOG is TRUE. |
JUL_LOG_FILE_LEVEL | The level of Information Console activity to log in a file. Valid values are OFF, SEVERE, WARNING, INFO, CONFIG, FINE, FINER, FINEST, in order of the number of messages to log. The default value is WARNING. |
JUL_LOG_FILE_SIZE_KB | The maximum size, in kilobytes, for an Information Console activity log file. When a log file reaches this size, Information Console creates a new log file and increments its file number. If the log file number reaches the value of JUL_LOG_FILE_COUNT, Information Console resets the file number to zero and overwrites the first log file for the time stamp. |
LOG_FILE_LOCATION | Indicates which directory contains the log files. If the value is not an absolute directory path name, Information Console locates the directory in the Information Console home directory. The default value is logs in the Information Console home directory. |
LOGIN_TIMEOUT | Specifies the number of seconds to wait before a session times out. The minimum login time-out is 300 seconds. The maximum value is equivalent to java.lang.Long. Its default value is 1200 seconds. |
MAX_BACKUP_ERROR_LOGS | Specifies the maximum number of backup error log files to keep. The default value is 10. |

MOBILE_APP_DOWNLOAD | The URL target of the download button displayed by Information Console when viewed in mobile/touch device. |
PROGRESSIVE_REFRESH | Controls the interval in seconds at which an Actuate report refreshes itself when running a progressive report. The report refreshes first after 15 seconds, then after 60 seconds, and then after the PROGRESSIVE_REFRESH interval. If the value is less than 60, Information Console uses 60 seconds. This parameter’s default value is 1800 seconds. |
