[GUSDEV] Re: [CBIL] GUS Config Changes

[Michael S. <msa...@pc...>]

I've had a few questions about this-- sorry my previous email wasn't  
clearer:

When you first download/checkout GUS, you will have a project_home  
with the install component that contains gus.config.sample.  You must  
manually copy this to gus_home/config/gus.config and edit it as  
appropriate before running the installer.  All GUS components now use  
that as a single point of configuration.

$GUS_HOME/config/gus.config will never be overwritten since there's  
no automatic process to copy it.  $PROJECT_HOME/install/gus.config  
will never be read since it's an deprecated configuration method.

There is ONLY ONE configuration file!!  $GUS_HOME/config/ 
gus.config    It is created manually.    All other gus.config or  
gus.property files are ignored!!

Hope this is more clear :)
