Database connection
The Job Processor plugin works with a database to store all relevant job information. This
database is a HyperSQL Database (HSQLDB, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSQL_
Database_Engine). It is installed as a service with the name OL Connect Send DBServer (the
internal service name is OLCSServer).
Communication between the plugin and the database occurs using port 9001 (the default port
for HSQLDB). However, there may be situations where this port is already blocked by another
application and may need to be changed.
Several database settings can be modified by creating an ini file. This file must be named
“OLCSSvc.ini” and stored in the same folder as the executable OLCSSvc.exe, located under
“%CommonProgramFiles(x86)%\Objectif Lune\<Workflow Name>\Plugins\CPD”.
By adding the entry “DBPort = <new port number>” under [HSQLDBSETTINGS] and then
restarting the service, the communication port is changed.
Note that Workflow has to be restarted after such a modification.
Output
The plugin stores the incoming print job in the target folder with the file name specified in the
plugin.
If no extension is defined by the user for the file name, the default “.ps” extension is added
automatically, as the incoming print jobs are PostScript files.
Metadata
In addition to the print job, the plugin creates a metadata file with basic information. The values
originate from the client machine.
In unlicensed mode, the user name, machine name and domain/workgroup name will not be
available through the metadata.
