WebFOCUS Online Help > Managed Reporting Administrator > Application Integration Topics > Using Launch Pages Outside the Default Repository

Most sites will only use the Managed Reporting Repository directory, basedir, created by the installation program, which is found under install_dir/WebFOCUS76. This repository is referred to as the default repository because it is referenced by the variable MR_BASE_DIR in the WebFOCUS script file named install_dir/WebFOCUS76/client76/wfc/etc/cgivars.wfs. If you modify your Managed Reporting signon page to include the MR_BASE_DIR variable for the purpose of overriding this setting, your launch pages will generate an error because they assume that the Standard Report will be found in the default repository.

You can make these launch pages work by adding the MR_BASE_DIR variable to your launch pages as shown in the following example:

<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="MR_BASE_DIR"
VALUE="e:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\basedir_alt">
