Initial configuration

Apache Geronimo provides a couple of configuration files where you can edit some of the parameter before starting the server. For instance, you can change the port numbers the server uses by updating the config-substitutions.properties file located in the <geronimo_home>/var/config directory. If you need to substitute one module with another you can use the artifact-aliases.properties or the client-artifact-aliases.properties files also available in the <geronimo_home>/var/config directory. In addition, you may also want to change the default user name and password and/or user groups. The files available in the <geronimo_home>/var/security directory allow you to make these changes.

Additional configuration changes can be made on the config.xml file available in the <geronimo_home>/var/config directory. The following sections cover more in detail how to make these changes.
