##Configuration instructions

Some things can be configured while launching the application. A default configuration file is embedded in the application and can be found in the sources under conf/application.conf. If you want to change some of the variables present here, you can copy this file somewhere on your server and run it with

start -Dconfig.file=path/to/application.conf

You'll find the available keys in the file stored in the sources. In particular, this file can be used to configure some things included in the GetCapabilities document answered by the WMS Server. Moreoever, log verbosity can be set here too. If you change the configuration file, you have to restart the whole application.

About the use of internal styles

The wms server implementation lets you define which style you want to use. When specifying such a style in the URL, you must not give the extension (.se) of the file.
