Editing AppServerX.xml

Safe workflow for changing AppServer settings: backup first, then restart to apply.

AppServerX.xml controls most AppServer behavior.

The file is located at /<WebSpellChecker_Installation_Path>/AppServer/AppServerX.xml.

Always back up AppServerX.xml before editing.

If the XML becomes invalid, AppServer will not start.

Workflow

1

Back up AppServerX.xml

Create a copy in the same folder.

• Example backup name: AppServerX.xml.bak-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS

If anything goes wrong, restore the backup file and try again.

2

Edit AppServerX.xml

3

Restart AppServer to apply changes

Restart AppServer to apply changes in AppServerX.xml.

To restart: stop the application, then start it again.

Use Main AppServer commands.

4

Verify application operability

Use health check or status API to verify application operability after the change.

If application doesn't start after the change, see:

• Cannot parse ini file "...\AppServer\AppServerX.xml". Reason: XmlDomParser. Invalid token [..]

What to expect after restart

• If AppServer starts normally, your changes are applied.

• If AppServer doesn't start, revert to your backup.

• Then fix the XML and start the service again.
