Changing the default output location

To redirect the output to a custom location, edit the values in the rpe-launcher.ini and rpe-studio.ini files.

Procedure

  1. Edit the values in the rpe-launcher.ini file:
    1. Open the rpe-launcher.ini file from the default location, which is C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\Rational Publishing Engine\RPEn.n\launcher.
    2. Modify the Dosgi.instance.area and Dosgi.configuration.area values to point to the custom location.
    3. Save and close the file.
  2. Edit the values in the rpe-studio.ini file:
    1. Open the rpe-studio.ini file from the default location: C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\Rational Publishing Engine\RPEn.n\studio.
    2. Modify the Dosgi.instance.area and Dosgi.configuration.area values to point to the custom location.
    3. Save and close the file.
