MIX traditionally used a configuration file called mix.properties to set the parameters for the MIX installation. This has given way to a more uniform configuration file, used for all ErgoTech applications and stand-alone deployments, ErgoTechConfiguration.properties.

Note: Some startup parameters for MIX must be provided on the command-line as “-D” options and these special cases will be noted in this article.

ErgoTechConfiguration.properites is a text file which lists parameters and their values in a column, formatted as:

propertyName=propertyValue

The MIX runtime configuration has traditionally been named “mix.properties” but all these properties can be entered in a standard ErgoTechConfiguration.properties file.
