- Configuration -

Once you've installed jChatBox you have to setup three parameters only before launching it : LOGFOLDER (path for auto-created log files), BACKUPFILE (file where chatrooms are stored) and XMLjChatBox (path to jchatbox.xml file).

1 - LOGFOLDER :
Edit jchatbox.xml from conf folder. In the LOGFOLDER tag, modify :
D:/tomcat/webapps/jChatBox/logs with your absolute path to logs folder.
DO NOT add "/" or "\" at the end !
Use "/" as separator under Win32, Unix or Linux. Use ":" as separator under Mac.

2 - BACKUPFILE :
Edit jchatbox.xml from conf folder. In the BACKUPFILE tag, modify :
D:/tomcat/webapps/jChatBox/logs/backup.ser with your absolute path to backup file.
This file will be created automatically when SYSTEM user click on "Backup chatrooms" from administration GUI. Backup is also done when servlet engine stops.

3 - XMLjChatBox :
Edit configureme.jsp and modify XMLjChatBox variable : D:/tomcat/webapps/jchatbox/conf/jchatbox.xml with the absolute path to jchatbox.xml file.
Use "/" as separator under Win32, Unix or Linux. Use ":" as separator under Mac.

XMLjChatBox parameter is the most important. If it's wrong, jChatBox won't start correctly.
