General Parameter
Parameter | Description |
Network Report Root Directory | Directory (uneditable) to store templates. The default value is reportlets. |
URL Management Center | Cloud center connection switch. If this switch is enabled, designer information and AlphaFine information are collected to the cloud center for using cloud O&M related functions. You are advised to enable the function. |
Report Resource Root Directory | Directory (uneditable) to store configuration files. The default value is resources. |
Gzip Compression | Enabling Gzip Compression can reduce storage space. When the system transfers files through the network, the transfer time can be reduced, thus speeding up report access. You are advised to enable the function. |
Server Character Encoding | Server character encoding (uneditable). The default value is UTF-8. |
External Database | External database. After the external database is connected to the decision-making platform, the system will become more stable in cluster environments or environments with large amounts of data. For details, see External Database Configuration. |
Servlet Path Name | Servlet path name. Modification is not recommended because it will affect the way the URL is written when you access templates. The default value is decision. |
Cryptographic Algorithm | Cryptographic algorithm switchover. The administrator can switch between default encryption and Guomi encryption. In this case, transmission, storage, and user passwords are encrypted by Guomi algorithms. For details, see Cryptographic Algorithm. |
Week Start from | Date from which a week starts. It can be set to Monday or Sunday. Click Save and restart the system for the setting to take effect.

WebSocket Setting
The WebSocket port can be directly configured on the page. The setting items are shown in the following figure.

If the General page under System Management > System Setting does not display the WebSocket Setting section, the WebSocket connection has been correctly configured, requiring no manual modification.
WebSocket Request Port
After Proxy Server Configured is ticked, you can configure the WebSocket request port. It is unticked in a standalone environment and ticked in a cluster environment by default.
After Proxy Server Configured is ticked, the Port setting box is displayed for you to enter the WebSocket request port number (38889 by default).

2. If the WebSocket port is occupied/unavailable, you can troubleshoot by referring to Occupied/Unavailable WebSocket Port.

There is a format restriction on the entered port number. If the port number is entered incorrectly, an error message "Incorrect Port Format" is displayed.
WebSocket Request Path
The default value is /socket.io and the default request path is http://IP address:Port number/socket.io.
You can specify a middle path such as /webroot/decision/socket.io. Then the request path is http://IP address:Port number/webroot/decision/socket.io.
HTTPS Setting

Server Protocol: You can set the protocol type to plain (default) for HTTP and ssl for HTTPS.
SSL Key Path: absolute path storing the key and public key, corresponding to the value of the keystoreFile field in the server.xml file server.xml in the %TOMCAT_HOME%\conf path.
SSL Key Password: key used during application, corresponding to the value of the keystorePass field in the server.xml file in the %TOMCAT_HOME%\conf path.
SSL Type: You can select the certificate format (JKS by default). If the PFX certificate is used, change the format to PKCS12.

After you have configured the WebSocket request port and click Save, a message will pop up to prompt you to restart the server.
Font Detection
For details, see Font Missing Detection.
Template Assistant
For details, see Template Detection Assistant.
Parameter Setting
The Parameter Setting function is added to projects in FineReport V11.0.5 and later versions. The Calculation Delay of Global/Template Parameters switch is disabled by default.
If there are too many global parameters or template parameters, performance problems may occur due to parameter prioritization calculations. In this case, you can enable Calculation Delay of Global/Template Parameters for higher speed and better performance.
Global Setting of Dashboard Calculation
The Global Setting of Dashboard Calculation function is added to projects in FineReport V11.0.5 and later versions. The Parallel Calculation of Report Block (Beta) switch is disabled by default.
You can enable the switch to speed up report block calculations.
