[TinyOWS-users] How to point tinyows to an other config file ?

[Alexandre Dube]

Hi,

   Found what I needed in ./src/ows_define.h :

#define OWS_CONFIG_FILE_PATH        "/usr/local/tinyows/config-editing.xml"

1) configure
2) edit the file
3) make
4) sudo make install
5) rename the tinyows file and there you go.

Alexandre
