Q. How Do I Customize the Folder for Temporary Data?

A. Define the temp folder where Java should write temp files in etc/das-env.sh.

export TMP=/tmp

You can change location of the temporary directly from the default.properties or live.properties file using the following property. The updated property file takes effect when Datameer X is restarted.

# All Datameer X temporary files will be written under this directory
localfs.temporary-files=temp

Q. How Do I Define the Datameer X Application Port?

Define the port the web server starts in:

For Linux: $DAS_HOME/etc/das-env.sh

export DAS_PORT=8080

For Windows: $DAS_HOME\Datameer.vmoptions

-Ddatameer.launcher.http-port=8080

-Ddatameer.launcher.http-host=127.0.0.1

Q. How Do I Reset the Datameer X Admin Password?

A. If you need to reset credentials for the administration user, define the new password in etc/das-env.sh:

export DAS_ADMIN_INITIAL_PASSWORD='<new-password>'

and restart the application with the --resetPassword flag:

bin/conductor.sh restart --resetPassword

Q. What Is the Datameer X User?
