1.6.1 Modifications in webMathematica 2.0

This section lists any changes in webMathematica 2.0 that work differently from 1.0.

Location of Security Configuration File

The mechanism for locating the security configuration file has changed from webMathematica 1.0. Now the security

configuration  file  is  named  in  the  pool  configuration  file  and  is  located  in  a  central  configuration  directory  in

webMathematica/WEB INF/conf.  Previously  the  configuration  file  could  be  loaded  from  anywhere  on  the

Mathematica path.

This  change  was  made  because  loading  the  security  configuration  from  a  single  central  location  is  more  secure.

Since the default security system of webMathematica is very conservative, any sites that do not move their security

files will run with a higher level of security than is expected. Security is discussed in a later 

section

.

Location of MSP.conf

The default location MSP.conf has been moved into a central configuration directory in webMathematica/WEB 

INF/conf. This leads to a great simplification in the setup of your server because it will look automatically in this

location.
