<h2><a name="Configuration_Files_of_Apache_Archiva"></a>Configuration Files of Apache Archiva</h2>
<p>While Archiva is primarily configured via the graphical administration interface, it stores all configuration in XML configuration files that can be hand edited and used for backup and migration.</p>
<p>The following files compose the configuration for Archiva:</p>
<ul>
<li><tt>archiva.xml</tt> - this is the primary Archiva configuration file</li>
<li><tt>security.properties</tt> - This file, if it exists, is only read once to populate the Redback Runtime Configuration properties (see <a href="./redback-runtime-configuration.html#Runtime_Properties">Redback Runtime Configuration</a>, stored in <tt>archiva.xml</tt>. The file will be ignored after this.</li></ul>
<p>This section will focus on the <tt>archiva.xml</tt> file.</p>
<div class="section">
<h3><a name="The_Archiva_configuration_file"></a>The Archiva configuration file</h3>
<p>The Archiva configuration file is stored in one of two locations:</p>
<ul>
<li>The application server configuration directory (see <a href="./standalone.html"> installing Archiva standalone</a> for more information)</li>
<li>The user home directory (<tt>~/.m2/archiva.xml</tt>). </li></ul>
<p>When modified in the GUI, the file is written back to the location it was initially read from, with the home directory taking priority if both exist. When using a standalone installation, it is highly recommended that a configuration file is only maintained in one of the locations.</p>
<p>For a complete reference of the configuration file see: <a class="externalLink" href="http://archiva.apache.org/ref/2.2.4/archiva-base/archiva-configuration/configuration.html">Reference</a></p>
<p>The following shows a basic configuration file:</p>
<div class="source">
<pre>&lt;configuration&gt;
&lt;version&gt;2&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;managedRepositories&gt;
&lt;managedRepository&gt;
&lt;location&gt;${appserver.base}/repositories/internal&lt;/location&gt;
&lt;daysOlder&gt;30&lt;/daysOlder&gt;
&lt;id&gt;internal&lt;/id&gt;
&lt;name&gt;Archiva Managed Internal Repository&lt;/name&gt;
&lt;/managedRepository&gt;
&lt;/managedRepositories&gt;
&lt;remoteRepositories&gt;
&lt;remoteRepository&gt;
&lt;url&gt;http://repo1.maven.org/maven2&lt;/url&gt;
&lt;id&gt;central&lt;/id&gt;
&lt;name&gt;Central Repository&lt;/name&gt;
&lt;/remoteRepository&gt;
&lt;/remoteRepositories&gt;
&lt;proxyConnectors&gt;
&lt;proxyConnector&gt;
&lt;sourceRepoId&gt;internal&lt;/sourceRepoId&gt;
&lt;targetRepoId&gt;central&lt;/targetRepoId&gt;
&lt;policies&gt;
&lt;releases&gt;always&lt;/releases&gt;
&lt;checksum&gt;fix&lt;/checksum&gt;
&lt;snapshots&gt;never&lt;/snapshots&gt;
&lt;cache-failures&gt;no&lt;/cache-failures&gt;
&lt;/policies&gt;
&lt;/proxyConnector&gt;
&lt;/proxyConnectors&gt;
&lt;/configuration&gt;</pre></div><!-- TODO: need a full reference --></div></div>
