LAWDIR

LAWDIR is the directory path where Lawson product lines and server configuration files are located. Lawson customers typically have two to four product lines.

Product lines are stored in LAWDIR/productline; data areas are stored in LAWDIR/dataarea.

Other folders in LAWDIR include:

  • /print: job reports

  • /system/joblog: job error logs

  • /system: working server configuration and log files

The table that follows shows the contents of the initial instance of LAWDIR. Details about the contents of subsequent instances of LAWDIR (stored in LAWDIR/productline and LAWDIR/productline/dataarea) are in the next section.

LAWDIR/productline and LAWDIR/productline/ dataarea

The names of the product line and data areas, if there are more than one, appear in three places in the Lawson folder structure:

  • In LAWDIR

    In this location, the name is in lowercase. For example, the folder that contains the source code and objects for the product line test is LAWDIR/test.

  • In LADBDIR, where it contains the product line's reorganization log files.

    In this location, the name is in uppercase. For example, the folder that contains the reorganization log file for /test is LADBIDIR/TEST.

  • In LADBDIR/dict, where it contains dictionary files for the product line and data area.

    In this location the file name is uppercase. For example, the dictionary for /test is LADBDIR/dict/TEST.
