Hi all,

 

I see "sling.properties" file at many places in CQ installation. Which is the correct location of sling.properties which CQ reads.
 
I see it at following locations:
cq5.6.1\crx-quickstart\sling.properties
cq5.6.1\crx-quickstart\conf\sling.properties
cq5.6.1\crx-quickstart\launchpad\conf\sling.properties

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Rohit Pathak,

If you start CQ using the script crx-quickstart/bin/start, then the file crx-quickstart/sling.properties is used when CQ start up. However, if you start using the jar file (e.g. java -jar cq5-author-4502.jar), the file crx-quickstart/conf/sling.properties is used instead. If the sling.properties does not exist for any reason, it will automatically create a default one.

Thus, depending on how you start CQ, it will determine which sling.properties is used. You can remove the one that you do not need.

Thanks,
Sham
