		<h1>TAP Configuration File</h1>
		<p>
			All properties listed in the below table are all the possible TAP configuration properties.
			Some of them are mandatory. If one of these properties is missing, the TAP Service will not able to start:
			an error will be displayed immediately in the application server log and a HTTP 503 error will be sent when accessing the TAP URL.
		</p>
		<p>Besides, you should know that any property key not listed in this table will be ignored without error or warning message.</p>
		<p>
			However, any not allowed property value will generate a warning message in the application server log and the default value will be kept.
			Thus, the TAP Service will be started and available but the desired configuration value will not be set. So, you should take a look
			at the application server log every times you start the TAP Service!
		</p>
		
		<p>Here is an empty minimum TAP configuration file: <a href="tap_min.properties">tap_min.properties</a> and a complete one: <a href="tap_full.properties">tap_full.properties</a>.</p>
