Expedition - disable telemetry collection

Mr-Rolf — Thu, 21 Apr 2022 12:58:20 GMT

Hello LIVEcommunity,

is it possible to disable the telemetry collection of an Expedition server?

There is something in the terms and conditions about setting the TELEMETRY flag in the userSettings.php file.

I have found two files:
/var/www/html/bin/authentication/projects/userSettings.php

/var/www/html/bin/MTSettings/userSettings.php

In none of them do I see anything about disabling telemetry.

Does anyone know more about this?

Thanks.

Expedition: 1.2.15

Ubuntu: 20.04

Hi @Mr-Rolf The file you want to modify is /home/userSpace/userDefinitions.php , please added below line in the bottom:

define ('TELEMETRY',false);

Thank you @lychiang !
I added the line.
Should it be now also visible under "SETTINGS" --> "CUSTOM PARAMS" of the web-interface?

No, it won't show in the GUI.
