PropertyDescription
add_csrf_token_header_to_external_responses


Panel
borderColor#0081C0
titleColor#0081C0

This setting was introduced in XperienCentral version R33.

When enabled, an X-CSRF-Token header is included in the response to GET requests from external domains, which must be used in a subsequent POST or PUT request. The exposed_headers and allowed_http_headers settings in the corsfilter section (below) must also be set to "X-CSRF-Token". See Security Guidelines for Developers for more information.

channels_using_fallbackSpecifies the channel(s) that use the default design configuration when no custom JSP can be found for it.
clusternode_eventlistener_heartbeat_ms


Panel
borderColor#0081C0
titleColor#0081C0

This setting was introduced in XperienCentral version 10.22.1.

Specifies how often, in milliseconds, the cluster event service listens for events on other servers in the cluster.

clusternode_registration_heartbeat_ms


Panel
borderColor#0081C0
titleColor#0081C0

This setting was introduced in XperienCentral version 10.22.1.

Specifies how often, in milliseconds, the cluster event service checks for multiple active sessions for the same XperienCentral user. See Active Sessions for more information,

content_item_lock_poll_intervalA content locking poll thread that checks whether a content item lock is expired. If so, the lock is removed. The value is in milliseconds.
content_item_lock_timeoutSpecifies the number of milliseconds that have to elapse after a lock on a content item has been claimed before the lock is closed.
contentindex_locationThe directory where the contenti ndex and its configuration are stored.
contentindex_optimize_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when the content index is optimized. This should be set to happen at least once a day, preferably at the time that website activity is at its lowest (typically at night).The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
contentindex_queue_database_entries_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when to put database entities in the queue for the search indexing. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
contentindex_queue_empty_reindexSpecifies whether to disable the regeneration of the full background index when the queue is empty. Because a full index regeneration is performed regularly according to the contentindex_queue_reindex_schedule, you might want to block a full index generation at other times for performance reasons.
contentindex_queue_iteration_limitThe maximum batch size for each poller iteration. The default is 100. The larger the number, the greater the impact is on performance.
contentindex_queue_janitor_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when the index journal is cleaned up. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
contentindex_queue_poller_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when the index journal is polled for changes. The more frequently this is performed, the more up to date the index will be. Note that each cycle must be able to finish before the next begins. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
contentindex_queue_reindex_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates the triggering of a full background index. This should happen no more then once a day, preferably at the time that website activity is at its lowest (typically at night). The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
context_staticThe root URL of the static web application.

Anchor
create_content_revisions
create_content_revisions
create_content_revisions


Panel
borderColor#0081C0
titleColor#0081C0

This setting was introduced in XperienCentral version R29.

Specifies whether XperienCentral automatically creates revisions of content items. See Reverting a Content Item for more information. See also the settings max_age and schedule.

csrf_ignore_url_paths_regex



 



Panel
borderColor#0081C0
titleColor#0081C0

This setting was introduced in XperienCentral version R33.1.

Specifies the URL paths that are not checked for CSRF vulnerabilities. Define the excluded URLs using a Regular Expressions that matches the URL path, excluding the context path. For example, to disable the protection for all requests to "myservlet" (https://mydomain.com/web/myservlet/foo/bar?q=xxx"), add an expression like the following:

/myservlet(/.*)?


Warning

Exempting URLs from the CSRF checks weakens the security of your channel(s), therefore you should exercise caution with this setting.


current_rollover_detector_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when the rollover detector service runs. The detector service detects changes in the outcome of ContentItem.getCurrent(Language) and if any is detected, it updates the caching timestamps and friendly URLs. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.
date_formatThe format in which dates are represented (for example, dd-MM-yyyy).
default_timezone

Specify the default time zone for the XperienCentral installation. The time zone you specify is the absolute time upon which all timestamps in XperienCentral are based (creation date, publication date, expiration date, etc.). When users select their own time zone in My Settings, the time zone they select is calculated as an offset based on the default XperienCentral time zone. The following are the most commonly used time zones. For the full list of acceptable time zones, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones.

*.wm.com|localhost

Note
titleNotes
  • This setting also applies to HTTPS requests even though the name of the setting suggests that it only applies to HTTP requests. This has to do with how Java itself is structured. See Networking Properties (Oracle documentation).
  • If you use a proxy, GX Software recommends that you always add the host names of the XperienCentral frontend and backend servers to this list.


http_proxy_hostThe name of the HTTP proxy host server to use to send requests to the XperienCentral server.
http_proxy_passwordThe password to use to log in to the proxy host via HTTP. If no password is required, leave this field blank.

The Crontab schedule that dictates when the JCR datastore cleaner runs. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning. For complete information on scheduling jobs in XperienCentral, see Scheduling Jobs.

Info

Beginning in version R28, XperienCentral no longer uses the Apache Jackrabbit JCR indexing solution by default. This topic is only relevant to users of XperienCentral versions R27 and lower. See the XperienCentral upgrades notes for version R28 for more information.


limboelement_cleanup_scheduleThe Crontab schedule that dictates when limbo elements are cleaned up. The Crontab schedule used is a variant of the standard UNIX Crontab scheduler with a "seconds" field prefixed to the beginning.

password_banned_wordsSpecifies the string(s) that may not be used as passwords. To add a new value, enter the string in the text field and click [Add value].
password_min_distancePassword minimum distance. Specifies the extent to which a string to be used as a password must differ from any of the banned passwords. Take the following example: the string "Administrator" is banned as a password. If the minimum distance is 2, then the allowed strings to be used as a password must differ in at least two ways from "Administrator". The password "Administrat0r" (using a zero "0" instead of an "o") is unacceptable because it differs in only one way from "Administrator".
password_min_entropySpecifies how complicated a password must be. The allowed values are between 50 and 100, 100 being the most strict setting.
render_threadsSpecifies the number of parallel threads to use when rendering content on the website frontend. If the content on your website does not change at a high rate, it is recommended that you do not set this value too high.
