Edit Agent Properties After Installation

During installation, the aP Connect Agent installer reads the options.ini file and writes the configuration into the installation folder as separate .properties files. After installation, edit settings by modifying these generated files directly.

Note

Changes to options.ini after installation have no effect. To update settings after installation, edit the generated .properties files and restart the Agent service.

The installation folder is the path you specified as installDirectory in options.ini.

Generated Configuration Files

The installer generates the following .properties files in the installation folder:

File Source Section in options.ini Contents
application.properties [General] General agent settings (port, authentication token)
apc-connection.properties [aPConnectProperties] aP Connect connection settings
plm-connection.properties [PLMProperties] and [OAuthProperties] PLM connection and OAuth settings

Additional Settings in apc-connection.properties

The apc-connection.properties file also contains the mTLS properties clientKeystorePath, clientKeystorePassword, and clientKeystoreType. These properties are populated automatically when you select Use mTLS during installation. To disable mTLS (in the Agent only), leave these properties blank.

Edit a Property After Installation

Edit these files only when directed by aPriori Support

  1. Open apc-connection.properties or plm-connection.properties in the installation folder.
  2. Edit the property value.
  3. Save the file.
  4. Restart the Agent service for the change to take effect.

Encrypted values

Note that the clientId and clientSecret values are encrypted during installation. Encrypted values cannot be modified after install, a reinstall is required to change these values.
