If I change the number of incorrect login attempts before SSA locks a user profile do I need to restart the SSA server for it to take effect? Thanks v2018.2 ------------------------------ Chris Dickinson North Yorkshire County Council ------------------------------

Hi all I want to switch to use the Ordnance Survey Maps API in our website mapping. The service is great and will potentially cut down on the need for a great deal of manual processing of downloaded data. One problem is that SSA only supports the 3857 projection (long/lat) of the OS Maps API and not ...

Hi all I have a .png custom symbol that a customer would like to use, to replace an existing symbol, in their SSA map project. I have uploaded the symbol in MI Pro (v15) and saved the workspace, uploaded to the SSA repository - all seems fine, no errors. Except when I go to view the existing map, ...

Hello I'm looking for some advice on how to speed up the rendering of a map tile in the front end of SSA (v2018.2) I have a base map which is a seamless layer for old Epoch 1:2500 scale maps but unlike the default base map we use in SSA, which is made up of several Ordnance Survey layers down to ...

I have a related question on this. Where are passwords for users stored in SSA? For example - if I go into the Management console and edit a user, the password is not present in the user edit screen, just the option to set a new password. Are existing passwords stored somewhere where they can be viewed? ...

Hi Kieran Thanks for the reply. So instead of having a generic role like "Analyst_Planning" and dishing out the username and password to multiple users (there are about 100 users of a highways map project for example), create 100 new roles e.g. "Analyst_personsusername" assign all of them to whichever ...
