Installing Configuration Server

In most circumstances, unless you are actively working on Configuration Server development, you will want to have the latest version of the Configuration Server installed and running as a service on your Windows development system.

By default, the Configuration Server uses one of the following as the base directory where configuration data is stored:

Platform	Directory
Windows	%ProgramData%\Synergex\SIP\ConfigServer
Linux	/etc/synergex/sip/config-server

But the development environment includes several sample configurations, including the main DEVELOPMENT profile that's intended for use in the development environment. If you'd like to set up Configuration Server to use that configuration directory instead of the default location, you can do so by setting the environment variable SIP_CONFIG_PATH. For example:

SIP\_CONFIG\_PATH=C:\\DEV\\SYNERGEX\\IntegrationPlatform\\config

IMPORTANT: Because you'll be running Configuration Server as a Windows service, you must set SIP_CONFIG_PATH as a system environment variable.
