Configuring Client Properties Settings

Previous TopicNext TopicContents

Client Properties describe what java plug-ins client browsers use and how they communicate.

To set your client properties settings:

  1. Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
  2. In the Configurations tab, expand your configuration.
  3. Expand Client Properties.
    1. In the Internet Explorer Java Plugin URL field, enter the URL for Internet Explorer users to download the Java Plug-in (JRE).

      This setting defaults to the plug-in version you installed during setup.

    2. In the Standard Browsers Java Plugin URL field, enter the URL for Firefox, Chrome, or Safari users to download the Java Plug-in (JRE).

      This setting defaults to the plug-in version you installed during setup.

    3. In the Internet Explorer Java Plugin Version field, enter the JRE version used by applets in Internet Explorer.

      This setting defaults to the plug-in version you installed during setup.

    4. In the Standard browsers Java Plugin Version field, enter the JRE version used by applets in Firefox, Chrome, or Safari.

      This setting defaults to the plug-in version you installed during setup.

    5. In the JRE version for Java Web Start (JNLP) field, enter the JNLP JRE version.
    6. In the Use JNLP when launching applets field, choose true to use JNLP when launching applets. Choose false if you do not want to use JNLP when launching applets.
    7. In the Maximum memory allocated to Java Applets field, enter the maximum amount of memory, in megabytes, that Java Applets can use. If the Maximum Activities per Activity View setting is greater than 5000, the memory allocation must be set to 128 or greater. (See Configuring Application Settings in the Primavera P6 Administrator for more information.)

      The default is 256.

      Enter anything from 64-1024.

    8. In the Compress Applet Communication field, choose true to compress communication between applets and the server. Choose false if you don't want to compress communication.
    9. In the Compress HTML Content field, choose true to compress HTML-related content generated by P6, including .html, .js, and css files, and Ajax content. Choose false if you don't want to compress HTML-related content.

      Note: Choosing to compress will improve downloads on slower connections, but requires more CPU effort on the server and client.

    10. In the HTTP Server and Port Override field, enter the HTTP front-end server and port that P6 clients should use.

      Example format:

      http://servername:80

      Note:

      • Set this setting only if you have problems using the front-end web proxy server.
      • Do not include the context root.
    11. In the Ajax request wait timeout field, enter how long the system should wait to timeout BPM workflows and action required tabs.

      The default is 30s.

      Enter anything from 1s to 24h.
