Configuration Parameters Index (nuxeo.conf)

The Nuxeo Platform reads configuration properties that you can set either:

In the nuxeo.conf file
By contributing to the Configuration Service
From the Setup tab in the Admin Center (if Nuxeo JSF UI is installed)

nuxeo.conf File

Nuxeo Platform reads configuration properties in the nuxeo.conf file. Those parameters can be either environment parameters used by Nuxeo runtime or template parameters used for values replacement in configuration files.

Existing configuration parameters are listed in the index section below.

Docker Image

In the Docker image, the nuxeo.conf file is located in /etc/nuxeo. Thus, the NUXEO_CONF environment variable is set to /etc/nuxeo/nuxeo.conf.

To add some configuration properties when running a container from a Nuxeo image, you can mount property files as volumes into the /etc/nuxeo/conf.d directory of the container. Each property file will be appended to nuxeo.conf during startup, ordered by filename.

For instance, to append the following postgresql.conf file to nuxeo.conf:

nuxeo.db.name=nuxeo
nuxeo.db.user=nuxeo
nuxeo.db.password=nuxeo
nuxeo.db.host=localhost
nuxeo.db.port=5432

you can run:

docker run --name nuxeo -p 8080:8080 -v /path/to/postgresql.conf:/etc/nuxeo/conf.d/postgresql.conf docker.packages.nuxeo.com/nuxeo/nuxeo

Tomcat Server ZIP

In the Tomcat server ZIP, the nuxeo.conf file is located in $NUXEO_HOME/bin.

If you plan to use the application in production, you should move the configuration file outside the Nuxeo home directory, to make upgrades easier and more secured: your data and configuration won't risk to be overridden or lost.

For Windows users

Do not use Office writers, nor Notepad.

Wordpad is fine, Notepad++ and SciTE are good text editors, there are lots of other text editors.

Admin Center/Setup Tab

JSF UI Deprecation

This requires to have the JSF UI addon installed on your server that is deprecated since Nuxeo Platform LTS 2019.
Please refer to the Web UI documentation.

Administrators can also change the nuxeo.conf configuration parameters from the Admin center.

To edit the configuration of the application using the Admin Center:

Log in with an administrator account. Default administrator credentials are:
- login: Administrator
- password: Administrator
Click on the Admin tab in the page header.
Click on the Setup tab, edit the configuration you want to change and click on Save.
If indicated as needed on top of the page, restart the server.

You can also take a look at the following page for recommendations and examples.

`nuxeo.dbs.cache.concurrencyLevel`

Guava cache parameter: Guides the allowed concurrency among update operations. Used as a hint for internal sizing. The table is internally partitioned to try to permit the indicated number of concurrent updates without contention. Because assignment of entries to these partitions is not necessarily uniform, the actual concurrency observed may vary. Ideally, you should choose a value to accommodate as many threads as will ever concurrently modify the table. Using a significantly higher value than you need can waste space and time, and a significantly lower value can lead to thread contention. But overestimates and underestimates within an order of magnitude do not usually have much noticeable impact. A value of one permits only one thread to modify the cache at a time, but since read operations and cache loading computations can proceed concurrently, this still yields higher concurrency than full synchronization.
