Updating Configuration Settings
This is a general guide that lists all available options - you do not need to go through all of them everytime.
1. Start the CONNX Configuration Manager.
The displayed settings are for this machine and are spread on five tabs: CONNX Settings, CDD Settings, InfoNaut, User DSNs, and System DSNs. The CONNX Settings tab is selected by default.
On 64bit Windows operating systems, the View 32bit registry and View 64bit registry radio buttons will be shown. These radio buttons allow different configuration settings for 32bit and 64bit versions of the CONNX driver, JDBC server, etc.
Note:
Most settings should be the same for both, but in some cases - such as path locations or port numbers - the values need to be different between the 32bit and 64bit version. In these cases, the Apply changes to both... check box should be unchecked when making changes.
2. Select the drop down list to change the current key.
3. Select a Value from the list to change.
The Key Values for the selected key are displayed in the Key Values text box.
4. Change the data by changing the contents of the Value Data text box.
5. Click on the Save button to store the change.
6. Select the CDD Settings tab for information on the CDD setting for the user machine.
The default setting appears in the list box.
Select the down arrow in the list box to view other options related to this computer.
7. Select a Value in the Key Value list box to view the value name and value data.
8. Type any desired changes in the Value Data text box and press the Save button.
9. Select the InfoNaut tab to view the InfoNaut registry keys available to this user on this machine.
Registry configuration options for InfoNaut are listed in InfoNaut Registry Configuration Options in the InfoNaut Help File.
Note:
InfoNaut settings are stored in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER area of the registry and therefore have no 32bit/64bit difference. All changes to InfoNaut settings apply to both the 32bit and 64bit versions of the product.
10. Select the User DSNs tab to view the CONNX User DSNs available to this user on this machine.
11. Select the arrow in the list box to view the entire list of CONNX User DSNs available to this user on this machine.
12. Select a User DSN containing the settings to alter or add, and then select a Value from the Key Values list box.
13. By selecting CONNX9SAMPLES32/DRIVER, you can view the location of the .DLL associated with the ODBC driver used for the CONNX sample databases. Select other Values to view related data.
14. Select the System DSNs tab to see the CONNX System DSNs available on this machine.
15. Select the arrow in the list box to view the entire list of CONNX System DSNs available on this machine.
16. Select a System DSN containing the settings to change, and then select a Value from the Key Values list box.
17. Change the selected Value data by entering new data in the Value Data text box.
18. Select the JDBC tab to see the CONNX System JDBC parameters available to this user on this machine. For example, by selecting LOGLOC from the Key Values list box, you can change the location of the .log file.
19. Click the Save button to store these changes.
20. Click the Close button to close the application.
Note:
If no User or System DSNs exist on this machine, a dialog box appears stating that no CONNX data source names were found.
