   The configuration changes that you need to make are the jdbc-connect, 

   installdir, web-base-url, replication-path, servlet-path, html-path, 

   image-path, style-path, server, replication-log, user and password.  

   Each is described below.

   to your database.  

   The dbDriver parameter is the name of the JDBC driver class to use for

   connections to your database.  If you are not using Oracle, you will also 

   need to change the name of the database adapter class in the dbAdapter

   property in the <a href="./properties.html"?>metacat.properties</a> file.

  </li>

  <li>

   Web-base-url is the URL from which you want to load any stylesheets 

   or supplementary images.

   Replication path is the relative path to the replication servlet.  This

   The user and password parmaters are the database user name that you set up

   to use Metacat, for example an Oracle username and password.

  <li>

   The config-dir parameter specifies the location of the configuration files

   for the "style-sets" feature.  It is set by default to the installation

   directory and generally does not need to be changed.

  </li>

  <li>

   The default-style parameter defines the "style-set" that is to be used

   by default when the qformat parameter is missing or set to "html" during

   a query.  It is set to "knb", which is the only style that ships with the

   default metacat distribution.  If you create your own stylesheets for

   displaying metacat output, you may want to create a new config file in the

   config-dir (e.g., mystyle.xml) and then change the default-style to use

   your custom style (e.g., "mystyle").

  </li>

  <li>

   The eml-module, eml-version, eml-tag parameters control the installation

   behavior with respect to EML.  You should not need to change these paramters.

  </li>

  <li>

   The cvsrootparameter is used when building the distribution and you should

   not need to change it.

  </li>

  <p>Once metacat itself is installed, you have the option of also installing

  the Ecological Metadata Language (EML) DTDs. This process is done most

  easily by running "ant instdtd" which copies the DTDs to the installation

  directory, and then "ant dtdsql" which registers the DTDs with the 

  metacat server.  Your database username and password have to be set correctly

  for this to work.
