ESME uses Compassto perform full-text searches.

Selecting different usage patterns

There are different ways to use compass in ESME. The selection of which approach to use depends on what your requirements are.

To select the option that you wish to use, you must set this option in your property file. To set the option, please use the following syntax:

compass_config_file=/props/compass.filesystem.cfg.xml

Currently, there are three examples of different compass based options in the /server/src/main/resources/props/ folder.

How do you configure OpenID?

Using a proxy with OpenID

Often you may wish to install ESME behind the firewall. In most cases, you won't have an internal OpenId provider, which means that your users are going to use OpenIds from external providers. Usually, you will have to go through an internal proxy.

If this is the case, then you must set the proxy server.  To do this use the property file, This file must include the following lines:

http.proxyHost=[proxy - look in your browser]
http.proxyPort=[proxy port - look in your browser]
