Change configuration of the installation¶

This description can only be applied if you chose the Guided package installation method.

The values you entered during installation resp. update are stored in a file named install.user.ini in the current installation directory of the address book.

You can change the configuration values like this:

Switch to the directory you created for the address book, in Guided package installation it was suggested to call it addressbook:
```
$ cd addressbook
```
If you have made changes to the file buildout.cfg move it aside to be able to port the changes over afterwards. Otherwise just remove the file.
Call the script to change the configuration:
```
$ bin/change-addressbook-config
```
The configuration questions get re-presented to you with your previously entered values as defaults.
The address book instance has to be restarted which is done by the script if you want this. Otherwise see Run the application.

Caution

To remove additional packages you have to edit the [package] section of install.user.ini. There is currently no other way for removal. But be careful this might break your address books in the browser if the removed package(s) already stored data in the database. Afterwards call bin/change-addressbook-config as described above.

Caution

To remove the user name which should own the process you have to edit the [server] section of install.user.ini. Remove the value from the user line. Afterwards call bin/change-addressbook-config as described above.
