Referrer policy

This header entry can be used to control which referrer information is passed on when performing a redirect to an external page. The referrer informs the external page about which page a user came from. Please note that privacy and security issues may arise when passing on the URL to the external page.

HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS)

HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) ist ein Sicherheitsmechanismus für HTTPS-Verbindungen, der sowohl vor Aushebelung der Verbindungsverschlüsselung durch eine Downgrade-Attacke als auch vor Session Hijacking schützen soll. Für einen Betrieb unter HTTP wählen Sie für die Dauer 0.

Password policies 6.2.0+

The strength of all user passwords can be configured here. Passwords may not be shorter than a minimum length of 8 characters, but a higher minimum length can be configured. Different character sets (like letters in general, lowercase letters, uppercase letters, digits or special characters) can be forced to be contained in all passwords. After setting password policies, all new and all changed passwords must follow these. Existing passwords will not be changed, even if they do not conform the new password policies.

Cache

The file cache stores files used by the system, the form cache stores rendered HTML forms.

Property	Default value	Explanation
Max disk size	-1	Maximum size in MB of what the form cache stores in the file system. No limit when set to -1. If set to 0, the file system is not used by the cache.
Max Heap size	75	Maximum size in MB of what the form cache stores in-memory. If set to 0, the in-memory form cache is disabled.
Time to idle	0	Time interval in seconds until an item in the form cache is removed when it is never accessed during that time interval. Set to 0 to disable.
Property	Default value	Explanation
Max disk size	-1	Maximum size in MB of what the file cache stores in the file system. No limit when set to -1. If set to 0, the file system is not used by the cache.
Max heap size	75	Maximum size in MB of what the file cache stores in-memory. If set to 0, the in-memory file cache is disabled.
Time to idle	0	Time interval in seconds until an item in the form cache is removed when it is never accessed during that time interval. Set to 0 to disable.

System limits

Property	Default value	Explanation
Disk usage threshold	0	This is the size threshold in bytes beyond which files are written directly to disk.
Limit per file	Maximum size in bytes for file uploads within forms. Applies to each file individually. Set to -1 or no value to disable. This settings applies to both form uploads as well as backend uploads.
Total upload limit	The total allowed size of simultaneously uploaded files. This setting does not apply when multiple files are uploaded individually. When the user submits a form, this is the maximum allowed post size. Set to -1 or no value to disable.
Maximum database query row count	5000	Maximum number of returned rows for a query to the database. Set to 0 to disable.
database field size limit	0	Maximum size in bytes when retrieving columns of type character (eg. char or varchar) or binary. Set to 0 to disable.

Loopback URL

Some features (such as form preview images or PDF print) require the server to open a form. In cluster configurations or environments in which the internal and external domains are different, this parameter is used to configure the internal availability (e.g. http://localhost:8080/formcycle).

Automatic deletion of protocol entries 6.2.0+

Protocol entries (from processes, clients, system) that are outdated can be deleted automatically. At a specified time of the day all protocol entries are deleted that are older than the specified number of days. By using the "clear now" button all protocol entries can also be deleted instantly. After the automatic deletion of protocol entries, a new protocol entry is created containing information about the amount of automatically deleted protocol entries.
