Hello,

I am trying to figure out how i could go about moving the config file for limesurvey outside of the limesurvey directory. I have tried some simple methods i have used before in other programs but they do not seem to work.

Has anyone done this before that could advise me on what they did to make it work?

Why do you want to move the config file outside of the Limesurvey directory?

As far as I know this is not an option (someone might proof me wrong...).

Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Just wanting to take the config file outside of the web directory for extra safe measures. We have locked down access to the file the best we know how (windows server running IIS8) but i would like to see if i can just move it out of the limesurvey directory to place it somewhere else.
