Question by Matt L. · Jun 05, 2014 at 09:22 AM ·

Where to put userlocmap.properties file for User Location mapping

Hey, I am trying to map some user names to particular sites using the userlocmap.properties file.  In the CAS Advanced Properties Editor, the entry for this shows:

Property Property Name Property Value Property Default Value Comment
Client name to Site map file MAP_UserLocation-map userlocmap.properties  userlocmap.properties  

By default, this file is not included in the installation and should be created by the administrator.
The format of record is: client_name=site,area,region Restart is Required

The problem is that the entry does not specify where to place this file.  I'm assuming that I can put this somewhere in the CAS install directory, but I want to be sure where it needs to go, as I do not want to keep re-starting the customer's CAS server trying to find the correct location.  I have searched for reference to this in the DCRUM_Admin, DCRUM_CASInstall, and DCRUM_CASUserGuide documents, but I can't seem to find any reference to this file or property name.

Also, in the userlocmap.properties file, I am using the format:

userlocmap.properties
mlewis=Clandeboye,Canterbury,New Zealand
gwilki=Napier,Hawkes Bay,New Zealand

Is it ok to have spaces in the location names in this file?

Any help from someone who has used this successfully before would be much appreciated.

Thanks, 

-Matt

The file should be placed in \config\ sub directory of CAS, so by default it would be: C:\Program Files\Compuware\CAS\config\userlocmap.properties.

Spaces are not a problem as comas separate the fields.
