Updating the FOS INI File

Please note: The following are general instructions used to configure the FOS.ini file. Please tailor your specific configuration accordingly. This is a needed step for self-hosted customers (Portside hosted customers will have this process performed for them automatically). This step applies to FOS version 3.16.0.1 and all future builds.

​

1. Navigate into your directory where you installed your FOS.exe files ( Default directory for this from the installer is the following - C:\Program Files (x86)\FOS )

2. Open your FOS.ini File

The below verbiage can be found in the FOS.ini file and should be amended to your local directories.

# Log File Folder

appLogDir=D:\Fos\ApplicationLogs

# FOS Debug Logs (controls SatCom Data, Report, and IMU debug logging)

# Valid values: yes (default) or no. Any value other than "no" enables logging.

# Change requires a FOS restart to take effect (value is cached at startup).

FOSDebugLogs=yes

# Arpsync settings

ArpSyncPath=D:\Fos\ARP_SYNC 

# Enable/Disable Sentry integration (yes/no)

sentry_enabled=yes

# Enable debug logging (yes/no) - Creates sentry_debug.log in app directory

sentry_debug=no
