The default.properties File

The default.properties file provides an easy way of setting the most commonly-used publication web application properties. Instead of creating a .properties file for each component to be modified, you can just create a file called default.properties in a publication's WEB-INF/localconfig folder and add name=value property settings to it.

You can only set the following properties in this way:

Component Property Name in default.properties

com/escenic/servlet/TemplateDispatchResolver

page

forward-to-page

com/escenic/servlet/PublicationResolverProcessor

publicationName

publication-name

Note that the property names used in default.properties are not the same as the component properties they set.

In order to see the results of changing one of these properties you must redeploy the web application and restart the Content Store.
