Location of the license file

The license file needs to be placed in the configured directory.

There are multiple options to specify this directory:

• by environmental variable TIA_LICENSE_PATH: This will apply to ALL deployments and also survive a redeployment. This is useful for containerized deployments.

• in the ../META-INF/context.xml of the deployment itself. When configuration parameters are updated, this file is overwritten. This is the recommended configuration location for war-deployments.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE Context>
<Context>
    <Parameter
        name="tia.license.path"
        value="<absolute path>"
        override="true" />
</Context>

• the Tomcat-wide context.xml: applies to all deployments on this Tomcat instance, even when Tomcat is updated and service-configuration is rewritten.
