Used for connecting to NetServer, the database, and putting your service installation in maintenance mode.

Example service.config file

Configuration settings

If a configuration setting is prefixed by a #, it means it is commented out and will not be read by the system. This is mostly used for the frozen setting.

nsUser

The nsUser needs to have the type “System user” and an “Active” login under Users > Other users in your admin client. The “Other users” type is accessible only when logging into the web admin client with a system user (crm7). You might want to change this password if you had to recreate your Service installation and the newly randomized password in the config file is not identical to the one stored in the database.

nsEndPoint

Running upgrade.exe will automatically set the correct Services version.
Service still does not support running HTTPS on the NetServer it uses. See our recommended scenario #2 on how to use a reverse proxy to secure the installation but make sure the endpoint for Service inside is using HTTP.

frozen

This setting is valuable when you want to avoid having users logging/being logged in when you have scheduled/announced an update/maintenance. Always remember to remove this or comment it out after you have completed your maintenance.
