Commandline switches and .ini entries
PrintShop Mail Connect is intended to work stably and reliably, based on Java and the Eclipse
framework. To ensure this reliability and robustness, many Java and Eclipse parameters have
been tested and tuned, which is reflected in the respective .ini entries and the used command
line switches. A collection of valuable settings has been elaborated and found its entry in
PrintShop Mail Connect “good switches list” (called the “whitelist”).
The protection of the end user’s system is one of our main goals and therefore we have
implemented a very strict verification mechanism, which ensures, that only these whitelisted ini
entries and commandline switches are accepted, when one of Connect components is started
and run. Please be therefore advised, that any non-whitelisted ini entry or commandline switch
will be accepted and will - if tried to be used - lead to the respective application’s “sudden
death”. If you should encounter such a behaviour then please double-check your Connect log
file/s for respective entries.
Database Considerations
This page describes the different considerations and pre-requisites for the database back-end
used by PrintShop Mail Connect, whether using the MySQL instance provided by the installer,
or pre-existing (external) instance.

to provide the most stable back-end setup.
These are the specific options that have been changed in our version of "my.ini":

max_connections = 200 : PrintShop Mail Connect uses a lot of database connections.
This number ensures that even in high volume environments, enough connections will be
