Following installation an EASA system resides in two folders:

• <EASAROOT>→the installation folder holds EASA’s core system files
• <SERVERDATA>→ the data folder holds user accounts, developed or published EASAP's and results data.

To change a prior installed name and location of the data folder without uninstalling/reinstalling the server follow the steps below,

• Stop the EASA Server.
• Locate <SERVERDATA>
  • C:\Users\<USER>\EasaServerData (Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008)
  • C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\EasaServerData ( Windows XP or Windows Server 2003)
• Move the folder to a new destination
• Rename, if necessary.
• Modify two files below using a text editor,
  • In <EASAROOT>/tomcat/conf/Catalina/Localhost/data.xml
    • Edit the following parameter in the <Context /> tag:
      • Update the value for docBase as appropriate:
        • docBase=''D:\EASA\MyNewEasaServerData'' path=''\data''
      • Save and close.
  • In <EASAROOT>\db\mysql-5.7.17-win32\my.ini
    • Update the following line with the new path
      • datadir = C:/Users/<USER>/EasaServerDataEval/easa/db/0/mydata/
        • Save and close.
• Start the EASA Server.

After a successful configuration change the EASA Server should start, all user data including EASAPs and results will remain intact in the <SERVERDATA> folder.
