Configuring the BlueCielo File Publishing Service

Configuring the BlueCielo File Publishing Service specifies where the service will monitor for new files, how often it monitors, and where and how it will register the files in the Publisher database for publishing.

To configure the BlueCielo File Publishing Service:

On the computer where you copied the files as described in Installing components on a Windows file server, locate the file WinFSService.exe.config and open it in any text editor.

Locate and configure the settings described in the following table:

BlueCielo File Publishing Service settings
Setting	Description
PublisherServicesAddress	Set the <value> element to the Publisher web services URL, for example, http://<PublisherComputerName>/Publisher.
MonitorSecondsPeriod	Set the <value> element to the frequency in seconds at which you want the service to scan the folder for changed files. The default value is 60 seconds.
PreventDuplicate	Set the <value> element to True (default) to check for duplicate document registrations before adding a new one. If any duplicates found, the document will not be registered again.
MonitorFolders	The <value> element is a collection (ArrayOfString element) of <string> elements that each specify a job code and a corresponding folder to monitor. Specify the value using the syntax <JobCode>;<FolderPath>, for example, 45E2E0;D:\ToPublish\. You can find the job code for each publishing job in the list of publishing jobs shown on the BlueCielo Publisher 2012 page in BlueCielo Application Manager. You may specify multiple job code/folder pairs. One job code may be associated with multiple folders and one folder may be associated with multiple job codes.
